I am thrilled to share that the Momentum Makers in Higher Education Podcast will launch on November 19.
This is a passion project for me. I have been fortunate to learn from hundreds of people in the field that are achieving incredible things in the world of postsecondary student success. My conversations and relationships with these people motivates me to work hard for students everyday.
Season One will focus on why scaling developmental education reform is still critical to achieving improved outcomes for students. We will have conversations with thought leaders, state/system leaders, and faculty who are doing remarkable things to dramatically increase the percent of students completing gateway math and English in their first year.
Episode 1 will feature Amy Moreland and Erin Delle from the Tennessee Board of Regents and Leah Frauendienst, math instructor, from Volunteer State College. TBR is the OG of developmental education reform. They have been reforming developmental education continually for over 20 years and they are still at it. As a result, their approach to reform is the model for the field. Their improvements to developmental education and pass rates in gateway courses is the foundation of their entire student success strategy at TBR community colleges.
Momentum Makers in Higher Education will be available on the Momentum Makers in Higher Education substack and on your favorite podcast platform.
Momentum Makers is about engaging in thoughtful discussion, sharing wisdom, and having some fun along the way. I hope you will join us.
