Early Childhood Center

Developmental students face significant academic and life challenges as they pursue a college degree. As students in developmental studies often struggle to complete their courses, research focused on innovative pedagogy that engages students while developing skills is needed. This project sought to investigate implementing an on-campus, service-learning (SL) component into developmental reading courses. Students participated in SL by reading to children at the on-campus Early Childhood Center (ECC) one time per week, during scheduled class, with time provided for structured metacognition through reflective journals. A phenomenological approach was used for this study, and Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) was used to examine responses and note trends in data. It was found that students who participated in SL as part of their developmental reading course reported multiple positive effects such as developing a positive academic mindset, improving self-efficacy, and increasing motivation to read.

College Setting

This qualitative study examined the perceptions of nontraditional developmental education students in a community college setting. This study describes adult, nontraditional students' perceptions of their experiences, college supports, and best teaching practices which helped them to succeed. Interview data were obtained from four students, a supplemental instruction leader, and a program manager. Participant responses included themes about the conditions and challenges which the students face, as well as recognition of the intentional engagement practices on the part of the college infrastructure which students perceived to be most helpful and supportive to them. This data can provide valuable information to university administrators, college advisors, and classroom faculty, as well as inform future policy and practice.
