Dr. Eric Grebing (SERVE Center) received new funding from the University of Indianapolis for the project “The Rural Early College Network – CELL”
SERVE will conduct an evaluation that will examine implementation of these activities and then will assess changes in the mediating factors – the treatment EC programs in the CELL EC Core Principles and the development of sustainable early college practices throughout the RECN network. For outcomes, the evaluation will assess 9th and 10th grade student impacts on attendance, success in college preparatory coursework, enrollment and success in dual credit courses (including AP), and student performance on the PSAT. The evaluation will also assess the extent to which the project is attaining its goals for sustainability and scale including the number of endorsed EC programs in Indiana and the number of teachers credentialed for dual credit.
