520 | |a The focus of this paper is a course that may be helpful to consider for its overall role in guiding students to degree completion: Introductory Psychology or Psychology 100. The reason for focusing on Introductory Psychology is its commonality in both the Associate of Arts Direct Transfer Agreement (AA-DTA) degree and the Associate of Nursing Degree (ADN). The former is the largest degree that colleges award. The latter is the largest professional technical degree awarded and the third largest degree awarded overall. For the Psychology 100 courses, the researchers analyze the average grade decimal earned and the grade distribution. They also look at when students enroll in Psychology 100, both for total college credits earned along with it and quarter of students enrolled in the course. They begin the analysis with the AA-DTA. Students can transfer this degree to any public university in Washington State and begin with junior standing, with virtually all general education credits fulfilled. While AA-DTA graduates can transfer into a variety of disciplines, the large majority will pursue majors in arts and letters or the social sciences. The subjects are first-time in college students (FTIC). First they look backwards at students who earned their Bachelor's degree after having transferred with an AA-DTA. Next the researchers follow FTIC students as they start in community and technical colleges and progress towards their AA-DTA. These students are also the subject of the Guided Pathways Initiative. They disaggregate students who are awarded the degree and students who exit college with no award after four years. They also disaggregate the Guided Pathway cohort results by student's precollege English status. Often times completion of the highest level of precollege English or eligibility for English 101 are prerequisites for Psychology 100 in college course catalogs. Next the researchers extend their analysis by looking at another group- FTIC students interested in the ADN. They look at students who completed their two-year degree and program applicants who left college with no admission to the nursing program after four years. Finally, they conclude the paper with a discussion of the potential importance of Psychology 100 for helping students select and follow pathways, supporting them along the way and, in some cases, suggesting alternatives. | ||
