Florida’s Senate Bill 1720 allowed many students to bypass developmental education and enroll directly in introductory college-level courses. We use an interrupted time series design to introductory college-level courses enrollment and passing rates in English and math for three cohorts of college students prereform and three cohorts postreform. Based on a cohort-by-cohort comparative analysis, we find that cohorts after the reform are more likely to enroll and pass introductory college-level courses in their 1st year of college, indicating that the reform may help to accelerate student success in college. Further, we find that Black and Hispanic students experience even greater gains in passing rates than White students, effectively narrowing the racial/ethnic achievement gap.

阳光之州全面发展教育改革后发生了什么？佛罗里达州发展教育改革对大学入门课程完成的影响

佛罗里达州的 1720 年参议院法案允许许多学生绕过发展教育，直接参加大学水平的入门课程。我们使用中断时间序列设计来介绍改革前三组大学生和改革后三组大学生的大学水平课程的英语和数学入学率和及格率。基于逐个队列的比较分析，我们发现改革后的队列更有可能在大学第一年就读和通过大学入门课程，这表明改革可能有助于加快学生在大学的成功。此外，我们发现黑人和西班牙裔学生的及格率比白人学生更大，有效缩小了种族/民族成就差距。
