Details: | <p>This manuscript demonstrates and presents the program evaluation of one basic writing program. Based on a two-year study that targets 685 basic writing students, we hypothesize that these students achieve similar or higher retention rates than those of regularly-admitted students. The authors, who studied four variables which are nominally rated — retention rate, current classification, grade point average, and writing course sequence completed — discuss how each contributes to the successful retention rate of these basic writing students.</p> |
