Abstract

ABSTRACT The corequisite model is a promising developmental education reform effort that is helping students transition into college-level coursework more quickly. The purpose of this Brief is to offer recommendations to college leaders, faculty, and staff involved with implementing the corequisite model at their institution. Our recommendations are from a multi-year, mixed-methods research project conducted at one of the nation’s most racially, ethnically diverse community college systems in Texas. We use quotes from our interviews with corequisite faculty (51) and students (42) to represent broader themes on improving student success within corequisite courses. These interviews informed our recommendations to enhance classroom instruction, professional development, and implementation of the corequisite model. As the corequisite model continues to gain popularity across the country, we hope readers will consider our recommendations to ensure students receive the best support to ultimately improve equity outcomes in developmental education.
