7 So what?

8 Was this course otherwise available to this student? Approximately 76% of the courses were not otherwise available.

9 Would the student have graduated without this course? 33% of the students would not have graduated without taking DLC course(s).

10 Would the student be “college eligible” without this course? The vast majority of college eligible students met four-year college admission requirements without the DLC courses.

11 Would the student be “college prepared” without this course? More than half of the students who were college eligible took DLC classes to become more college prepared.

12 Now what?

13 What are the characteristics of students who are currently enrolled in DLC courses? What are the enrollment and completion patterns of students enrolled in DLC courses? What is the relationship between the online course grade earned and overall GPA? Research Questions

14 Data Sources DLC staff provided enrollment records on all students enrolled in at least one course during the academic year. Records included high school, courses enrolled in, completion status, and grade earned Student characteristics were obtained via a match against CSRS to obtain data on ethnicity, socio-economic status, disability status, and cumulative GPA.
