Summary:  "'Remedial [developmental] courses have been a fixture in American community colleges since these institutions first appeared in post-secondary education at the turn of the twentieth century.' It seems like a logical instructional model: developmental education is designed to provide students who lack prerequisite skills the means to remediate these skills to progress to college-level coursework in the respective areas. Community colleges have open admissions policies, which allow for students that are not prepared for college-level work to enroll in college programs. As such, community college students often need remediation and academic assistance to succeed in college. In the past decade, community colleges have engaged in a number of new approaches designed to improve student progress in and completion of developmental coursework. The ultimate goals of reform are students' increased success in college coursework and increases in overall student success and completion outcomes. As such, this issue is dedicated to developmental education reform.
