A. Flexible Lab Model(Fall and Spring only)

Class at fixed time• CA – 1 hour per week – 40 students• Trig – 1 hour per week – 200 students• Precalculus – 2 hours per week – 40 students• Review and connecting of concepts, working

examples with most difficult skills

Lab at flexible times (open 60 hours each week)• CA – 3 hours minimum each week• Trig – 3 hours minimum each week• Precalculus – 4.5 hours minimum each week• Do homework, do quizzes, read ebook, watch videos

B. Fully Online Model

• 1 section each of College Algebra and Trig

• Sections capped at 100 students each

• No class meetings

• Optional lab hours – flexible times

• Rigid due dates

• Option to work ahead

C. Fixed Lab Model(Summer only)

• 2 sections of College Algebra and 2 sections of Trig

• Enrollment per section capped at 100

• 8 class days and 16 lab days cycling in order of class, lab, lab, and then repeating

• 1.5 fixed hours in class and 3 fixed hours in lab required per cycle

• Lab open 8 hours each cycle

Assessments• All homework, quizzes, tests, and final exam

using MyMathLab

• Test in university testing center

• Grade Distribution10% Participation (5% class and 5% lab)10% Homework (drop lowest 2)10% Quizzes (drop the lowest 2)45% Tests (4)25% Final (can replace lowest test score)

College Readiness Program Overview

• High school teachers become “certified” in the program by successfully completing the summer workshop training requirements.

• Content is available online in MML for high school Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, Advanced Math/Precalculus, Calculus, and 6-8th grade math.

• Teachers “certified” in Advanced Math/Precalculus have the option to complete additional workshops (1 fall and 1 spring) and teach courses for dual credit.

College Readiness Program Certification Requirements

• Actively participate in the entire 8-day College Readiness summer workshop.

• Select a course to specialize in and complete all of the homework in that course with 100% accuracy by the end of the workshop.

• Earn a score of 90% or greater on the course Post-Test by the end of the workshop.

• Complete and return the workshop evaluation form.

The Plan• Professional development for 8-days during the

summer in LSU Math Lab; DE teachers attend two additional days of workshops

• LSU math faculty and high school mentor teachers facilitate workshop (LSU Lab School, Tara, Sherwood)

• Workshop content 1. Technology training in MyMathLab 2. Pedagogy of redesigned course delivery3. Content mastery of math homework for teachers
