| Abstract | The academic records of over 2,000 students who were required as a result of their national percentile scores on the Cooperative English Examination to take a remediation course in reading and writing skills during their first semester at Queensborough Community College (New York) were compared to the academic records achieved by an equal number of students who were not required to take a remediation course. The basis of comparison used was the grades received by both groups of students in various introductory academic courses taken one semester after the remedial students had taken their required reading and/or writing course. The same survey was conducted the following year with the new class of incoming freshmen. In both years of the study, the academic performance of the former remedial students with regard to the percentage of passing grades they received was very comparable to the percentage of passing grades received by the non-remedial students. The implications may be useful for evaluating programs given to underprepared students in two-year colleges. Extensive tabular data are appended. (Author/JDS) |
