Community college instructors teaching corequisite courses combining the requirements of developmental mathematics and college level mathematics will find it a most valuable resource. An engaging read of extremely practical ideas based on a research study!\u003c\/p\u003e -- Mary Margaret Capraro, Professor of Mathematics Education\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiscussions on the corequisite model for entry level mathematics courses has been at the forefront of post-secondary mathematics education for nearly a decade. In this book, Dr. Cribbs uses case studies and provides a research-based approach to how corequisite math classes are taught and the wide variety of models that exist. This is a great read and inspires corequisite math instructors to really think about their approach to closing mathematical knowledge gaps for students. This book will change mindsets about corequisite math classes.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Jennifer Whitfield, Professor of Mathematics\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you are sincere about student success, this book is a must-read. The author provides a contrasting perspective of the pros and cons of implementing a mandated corequisite model. As a learning \u0026amp; development professional, I found it particularly interesting to learn about how the model impacted job satisfaction for the faculty members. This book highlights the tremendous value of professional development specific to the campus or university.\u003c\/p\u003e -- Tasha Bennett, Learning and Development Supervisor\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIntroduction\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 1: Developmental Mathematics Education\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 2: Developmental and Corequisite Pedagogy\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 3: Listening to the Voices of Faculty of Developmental Mathematics\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 4: Successful Professional Development Options for Community Colleges\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCHAPTER 5: Conclusion\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReferences\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rowman \u0026 Littlefield Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51040353976663,"sku":"9781475866285","price":18.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9781475866285.jpg?v=1750946481","url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/developmental-education-preparation-9781475866285","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
