Redesigning college programs -- Guiding students -- Rethinking student instruction -- Helping underprepared students -- Engaging faculty and staff -- The economics of college redesign.
Summary: In this concise, evidence-based guide for educational leaders, the authors argue that two-year colleges can increase their rates of student success by discarding the traditional "cafeteria-style" model of course offerings and instead provide students with a "guided pathways" model in which more educationally coherent programs simplify students' choices without limiting their options and enable students to advance to further education and the labor market more quickly and at less cost.--From publisher description.
