Abstract | In recent years, discussion has arisen among educational researchers and practitioners on how best to teach academically underprepared community college students the basic skills they need to be able to learn from a college curriculum. Research conducted by the Community College Research Center has found that many creative approaches are used in developmental education, but there exists little quantitative evidence on their effectiveness. This study begins to fill this research gap. With funding from the U.S. Department of Education's Institute of Education Sciences, an intervention called the Content Comprehension Strategy Intervention (CCSI) was developed and tested at three community colleges. CCRC researchers drafted and pilot-tested the intervention in collaboration with science and developmental education faculty and senior administrators at Bronx Community College. The intervention was further tested and revised at Los Angeles Pierce College and Norwalk Community College. In this Brief, the authors describe the intervention and present data suggesting that it is a promising strategy for community college students who need to improve their reading and writing skills.
