Abstract | The purpose of this study was to evaluate the developmental education program of the Eastern Campus of Cuyahoga Community College. An evaluative model was constructed by accepting the performance standards and program guidelines that Roueche and Kirk listed in "Catching Up; Remedial Education" (1973), after their study of five successful programs. The components of the Eastern Campus program were described and found in a number of significant areas to differ from the model. Data on the academic performance of a sample of developmental students for the 1973-74 academic year were collected and presented. Interviews of faculty, counselors, and paraprofessionals were also conducted. On the basis of the data collected, recommendations were made to bring the Eastern Campus developmental program into line with the guidelines of Roueche and Kirk. (Author) |
