The Quantway Difference: One of SUNY’s Best Examples 75% 69% Students in Traditional Sequence Quantway Students at a SUNY Campus (Fall 2014) 21% Quantway Students at a SUNY Campus (Spring 2015) Notes from Carnegie PowerPoint: For Quantway 1, the first semester, we also compared the success rates of our Quantway students with a comparable cohort. Quantway 1 is intended to replace the traditional two semesters of algebra. We have re-conceptualized the algebra content that is necessary for succeeding in a college level quantitative reasoning course. We found that students in the traditional sequence have only a 21% success rate in one term, and only 29% in two terms; whereas, 56% of our QW 1 students were successful in one semester or term. Success in a course is defined as achieving a C, or better; or pass in pass/fail course. Campus example is Rockland in Fall 2014. *Success rate among developmental math students in traditional pathways

Funding support from the Gates Foundation & SUNY The Campus Spread PROGRESS: Triple # of students in one academic year: 750 to 2,500 students On-boarding : - 10 colleges in 2016-17 - 10 colleges in 2017-18 Funding support from the Gates Foundation & SUNY Always keep about this distance between text and the edge of slides and other content.
