Abstract
This session explores the deleterious impact that gateway courses can have on students’ postsecondary and broader life goals — especially for students of color, first-generation, and low-income students. Data gleaned and lessons learned from institutions working with the Gardner Institute to study and improve outcomes in historically high failure rate (a.k.a. gateway) courses will be shared. In addition, information on other forms of gateway course success initiatives will also be conveyed. Come learn about meaningful gateway courserelated actions that faculty and staff can take to significantly improve student and institutional performance in gateway courses.
