What Brings You Here?
Introductions – 10 minutes
Take turns introducing yourself to the others at your table.
Be sure to tell your tablemates how you interface with first year students.
If you are involved with a first year experience or empowerment program, think of one program accomplishment that you are particularly proud of.

What Do First Year Students Need?Discussion – 15 minutes
Take a few minutes to write about the skills and behaviors first year students need to be successful in college.
Turn to someone you’ve just met and share one or two ideas from your reflections.
Select a person who will introduce your table to the larger group and share one key idea from your discussion. Have a back up in case your idea has already been shared.

Principles for Effective Practice
• A strong start
• Clear, coherent pathways
• Integrated support
• High expectations and high support
• Intensive student engagement
• Design for scale
• Professional development
![Page 12: Brock Klein Javier Carbajal-Ramos Pasadena City College, CA](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649e9e5503460f94b9fbfe/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Research Questions
1. Will the summer orientation to college and the pre-collegiate “boot camp” increase success in math and persistence in college?
2. If so, when can we expect to see the increase?
3. How big can the program be? Is there a “tipping point” regarding program effectiveness?

Math Jam Findings: 2006-11
Retention rate – 89%
Contract completion rate -- 92%

Math Jam FindingsMath Jam students enrolled in
Prealgebra, Level 1 …
•Completed the last course in the pre-collegiate math sequence (Intermediate Algebra, Level 3) more than two and a half times faster than students not in the program by the end of seven terms
•Completed Intermediate Algebra and English Comp. more than twice as fast as the comparison group by the end of seven terms
2009 Claremont Graduate University evaluation report
![Page 23: Brock Klein Javier Carbajal-Ramos Pasadena City College, CA](https://reader034.vdocuments.site/reader034/viewer/2022051316/56649e9e5503460f94b9fbfe/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Attitudes towards Math Inventory (ATMI)
A mixed-model ANOVA found an increased sense of self and enjoyment of mathematics and reduced mathematics anxiety among Math Jam
students.
Math Jam students…
completed their first semester of math with improved attitudes towards mathematics
were better positioned to succeed in math than a comparable PCC math student
The comparison group reported increased math anxiety and decreased enjoyment of mathematics throughout the term.
Math Jam should be supported in its ability to move students through the math sequence faster than a comparable group of PCC students.

Traditional Summer Bridge vs. Math Jam
“Although a larger proportion of [traditional summer bridge] students completed the basic competencies for CSU/UC transfer and AA/AS degree attainment, students in the Math Jam program completed these competencies sooner.”
