Assessing for Access and Success: Reflecting on Ten Years of Developmental Education Reform at a Two-Year College

Jennifer Maloy ; Jed Shahar

Abstract

This article considers recent trends in developmental education and analyzes disaggregated student data, exploring the extent to which developmental education reform of corequisite instruction affected access of one community college’s students to a first-semester composition course. By examining student access and student success across two distinct semesters, before and after extensive developmental education reform, the article presents an approach to deep assessment that is necessary for English departments at community colleges as they analyze and adjust to specific reforms.
