Accelerated Learning Options: A Promising Strategy for States. Policy Insights
Michelau, Demaree
Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education
This issue of Policy Insights draws on findings from WICHE's report Accelerated Learning Options: Moving the Needle on Access and Success, to lay out some of the important policy issues that decision makers might consider when adopting new state policy related to accelerated learning or modifying policies already in existence. The publication describes the results of several research components, including an audit of state-level policies, literature review, survey of institutional policies and practices, transcript analysis, student focus groups, and data collection activities that concentrate on the financing of these options. (Contains 1 figure.)
