Since 2008 I have been working on a book titled _Becoming College Material_, essentially writing a chapter per year based on things we figured out through building and rebuilding the developmental education programming at Adams State. Some of these chapters have been published elsewhere, and the Pre-remediation chapter will be the project sponsored by my McGraw-Hill emerging leaders scholarship to the Kellogg Institute 2012-13. My new thought is to ask McGraw-Hill to back the whole thing as a book.
Here are the chapters:
Ducks: Flying, Floating, Sinking, Absent (but not dead!)
STAY: together as a group
The Rock and the Hard Place
Pre-remediation: High school and middle school outreach/mentoring, the PROTEGE program
Service and Sustainability
Full Circle: We admit them one at a time; we graduate them one at a time. "Cradle" to employment supports.
Gentle Pathways: Re-engaging veterans, non-traditional students, First Generation Students, Dev Ed supports
Promising Connections: First Year Experience, Composition & Mathematics
Building Relationships
Bridging the Gap
Telling the Story
