| Abstract | Colleges throughout the United States are evaluating the effectiveness of their strategies to place entering students into college-level or developmental education courses. Developmental, or remedial, courses are designed to advance the reading, writing, and math skills of students who are deemed academically underprepared for college-level courses. Placements have traditionally been determined through standardized placement testing; however, through evaluating additional types of placement tests, high school transcripts, and evaluations of student motivation, multiple measures assessments (MMAs) are becoming an increasingly popular tool to place students with greater nuance. Colleges must decide what measures to include, and how to combine them. This study was developed to add to the understanding of the implementation, cost, and efficacy of an MMA system using locally determined rules. As part of a randomized controlled trial, the study team evaluated MMA programs and observed 17,203 student performances across five colleges in Minnesota and Wisconsin over the course of the fall 2018, spring 2019, and fall 2019 semesters. This report examines the impacts of MMA on math and English gatekeeper course completion and college-level credit accumulation three semesters after students' initial placement. This report also analyzes the predictive utility of high school GPA, placement tests, and the noncognitive assessments used by the study colleges. (ERIC). |
