  1. AB 1705 Finishing the Work of AB705 Tina Akers-Porter, Professor, Mathematics

  2. AB 705 Implementation at MJC Discontinued standardized placement test (Accuplacer), relying instead on high school GPA/last math course for placement or guided self placement in absence of high school data. Math 101 Mathematical Liberal Arts Programs Math 32 Created corequisite support classes for high traffic students pathways. Ideas Math 111 College Algebra STEM Programs Math 33* Math 134 Elementary Statistics Statistics Pathways Math 34 Significant professional development and site visits to support new pedagogies and implement corequisite support courses.

Course offerings in Mathematics First corequisites offered in Fall 2019: Math 32 (Support for Math 101) Math 33 (Support for Math 111) Math 34 (Support for Math 134) Second wave of corequisites offered in Fall 2022/Fall 2023: Math 28 (Support for Math 128) Math 35 (Support for Math 135) Planned corequisites for Fall 2024: Math 41 (Support for Math 171) Math 36 (Support for new Math 166) Fall Fall 2017 2017 Fall 2023 Fall 2023 (Scheduled) (Scheduled) Class Class Fall 2021 Fall 2021 Transfer Level Sections Below Transfer Sections Corequisite Sections Non-Credit Math Sections 32 67 70 67 8 0 0 19 24 2 6 1

  5. AB705 vs. AB1705 AB 705 Placement must primarily rely on high school data (self-reported), students may repeat high school coursework. BSTEM transfer level placement require Algebra 2/Intermediate Algebra competency. Students must be placed into transfer level course work (BSTEM exception). Students can enroll in below transfer level courses, but cannot be placed (except for BSTEM exception). No guidance on BSTEM pathways, only placements. Non-credit remedial courses allowed. Very limited exceptions are available, but are highly scrutinized AB1705 Placement must primarily rely on high school data, student MAY NOT repeat high school coursework. high school coursework. BSTEM transfer level placement no longer requires Algebra 2/Intermediate Algebra requires Algebra 2/Intermediate Algebra competency. Students must be placed and enroll transfer level course work. transfer level course work. Students CANNOT enroll CANNOT enroll in below transfer level courses. BSTEM pathways can only have two prerequisite courses before Calculus 1 prerequisite courses before Calculus 1. Non Non- -credit credit remedial courses not allowed MAY NOT repeat no longer enroll into only have two not allowed.
