Change 4: Changed our Assumptions
These were students that needed a little ‘remediation’ through a lot of classes and a long series of coursework.
![Page 8: ASHLEY MOORSHEAD THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE OF AURORA ASHLEY.MOORSHEAD@CCAURORA.EDU Integrating and Accelerating English and Reading for Students Testing Two](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e245503460f94b12cf8/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The Traditional Approach
The majority of these students needed a developmental sequence with more time and less rigor because they needed to be fixed.
Messages of Marginalization
“Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” – Albert Einstein

We Now Think of Our Old Approach….

Treat ‘Em Like It’s Harvard…..Rethinking Dev. Ed. Instruction
• Philosophy, approaches to learning, and teaching methods
• Structure and language around our courses
• Assumptions of and orientation toward our students – Message of ‘College Material’– Students are valued members
of academic community from the moment they step on campus
– We expect them to get a college degree and we will provide the necessary support to realize this….

Re-examining our Assumptions About Students and Instruction: Focus on Transformation not
Remediation
We Recognized:
The majority of these students needed a developmental sequence with less time, more rigor, and a more thoughtful curriculum.
Most of these students needed transformative curriculum that would change their approaches to knowledge and learning. These learners needed to learn the basic principles of analysis through integrated reading and writing instruction.
Students needed to read and respond to college texts that enabled them to understand and develop the beliefs and dispositions of successful college students.

How Did We Integrate REA/ENG?
Patterns of Organization/Text Structure: Both subjects are focused on recognizing
relationships within information Both TEACH students how to process and
organize information around these patterns
i.e. Compare and Contrast Making decision to come to school Evaluating everyday purchases
![Page 13: ASHLEY MOORSHEAD THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE OF AURORA ASHLEY.MOORSHEAD@CCAURORA.EDU Integrating and Accelerating English and Reading for Students Testing Two](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e245503460f94b12cf8/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
How Did We Address Affective Issues In our Curriculum?
We recognized that if we didn’t change beliefs, we couldn’t change behaviors.
We chose academic texts that addressed the most common misconceptions about success, work, practice etc. that often led to academic failure i.e.Carol Dweck’s Mindsets
![Page 14: ASHLEY MOORSHEAD THE COMMUNITY COLLEGE OF AURORA ASHLEY.MOORSHEAD@CCAURORA.EDU Integrating and Accelerating English and Reading for Students Testing Two](https://reader030.vdocuments.net/reader030/viewer/2022032803/56649e245503460f94b12cf8/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Sample Integrated Assignment- Compare and Contrast
Reading Activity Section of “The Mindsets” – “The Two Mindsets,” pages 39-41.
Annotate Circle Signal Phrases Annotate key concepts and factors that make them similar and different
Chart Similarities/Differences
English Prompt Compare/Contrast: “Mindsets"-students are asked to analyze the fixed mindset versus the
growth mindset. Typically, they can choose to compare/contrast themselves to another person. They could also choose to do a self-analysis, comparing/contrasting a mindset they had earlier in life to the one they now possess.
Paper is to be 2-pages in length and in MLA format. It must contain a complete
introduction, relevant body paragraphs, and a complete conclusion.

Common Concerns about Developing an Integrated Class
But, I’m not a reading instructor; I’m not a writing instructor….. Role of Reading Professor
“Intimidation”/ “Fear” of such a new class Role of Writing Professor
“Trial by Fire” Mentoring
Is this a program that can work for any institution?
