Ok, what do I need to take? How do I know in what order? Do I work

down the list?

By the way...this list scrolls down 3 times as long as this photo.

This looks complicated. Is it me? Maybe I’m not college material.

This doesn’t seem so

scary. It tells me exactly what I need to take each

term.

Cool, it builds when I transfer.

Scale Up

What worked for one group

might not work for all.

There is no funding to scale

up. It’s not sustainable.

Pathways @ EdCC

ATD: What we have learned

• Began with concentration on small scale intervention – moving to scale difficult

• Small scale changes don’t have lasting impact • Move to fully integrated systems that support

students at each step of the process • Success requires holistic redesign of the

student experience for all students • Data should drive our decisions and refine our

priorities • Keeping equity as a driving focus
