Given the increasing prevalence of these types of courses, TBR is studying the impact of accelerated courses on students, faculty, and staff. This project includes a quantitative analysis estimating the impact of accelerated courses on students’ academic outcomes for all 13 community colleges. This project also includes several qualitative components conducted in partnership with three community colleges (Chattanooga, Dyersburg, and Nashville). The qualitative work includes student surveys and interviews with faculty, staff, and students. The findings from this project will provide insight on whether accelerated courses affect student outcomes and how faculty, staff, and students are experiencing accelerated courses.
