The Impact of Co-requisite Algebra Models on Student's Psychological Well-being and Student Engagement

This is a sequential explanatory mixed methods study that examines co-requisite college algebra courses and its impact on a student’s psychological well-being (PWB) and student engagement (SE). Co-requisite mathematics courses have shown promising completion and retention results for students that need mathematical remediation. This study seeks to assess if college algebra co-requisite models have an impact on PWB and SE. This will be done by surveying college algebra students from an array of different models, as well as focus groups.
