  1. ELIZABETH ESTRELLA Actions faculty experts recommend for California Community Collegesto ensure maximum effectiveness of instructional strategies and related academic support programs in DEVELOPMENTAL MATHEMATICS by the year 2020:A Delphi study

  2. RESEARCH QUESTIONS • What actions do faculty experts recommend for California Community Colleges to ensure maximum effectiveness of instructional strategies and related academic support programs in developmental mathematics by the year 2020? • What actions do faculty experts in California Community Colleges believe are most important and most feasible to implement to ensure maximum effectiveness of instructional practices in developmental mathematics by the year 2020? • What actions do faculty experts in California Community Colleges believe are most important and most feasible to implement to ensure maximum effectiveness of related academic support programs in developmental mathematics by the year 2020?

  3. METHOD • Pilot • 3 Rounds • Research • Panel and California Mathematics Council Community Colleges • What actions do faculty experts recommend to maximize the effectiveness of instructional strategies and relate academic support programs in developmental mathematics for the California Community Colleges by the year 2020?

  4. Criteria for Community College Faculty Experts in the Study • 8-10 Years of teaching experience • Experience with new methods of teaching • Institution/Peer Recognition

  5. Responses from Faculty Experts • 111 Answers • Answers were rated 1-10 on Importance and Feasibility • The interquartile range was calculated to determine consensus

  6. Academic Support Programs Support recommended

  7. Most Important Instructional Strategies • Ratings were 1-10 • Interquartile Range Indicating consensus

  8. Most important Academic Support

  9. Findings • Importance of Adult Learning Theory • Importance of non-cognitive strategies • Classroom Environment • Clear norms/ expectations • Technology accompanied by teaching and support relationships • Developmental mathematics faculty: the need for discussion and dialogue

  10. CONCLUSIONS • Addressing of math anxiety in student achievement • Group of experts currently teaching who could serve as a consortium for new ideas about how to improve student achievement • Good teaching is still the most important factor and there is a world of knowledge about instructional strategies that can be used for staff development
