In #Nebraska a scholarship program for students taking college courses in high school (dual enrollment) was associated only w. increased initial measures of college success. Maybe because the credits the HS students earned didn't help w. major requirements? #AcademicSky #highered

Multiple articles have reported allegedly alarmingly low levels of #math prep of students at @ucsandiego.bsky.social (buff.ly/L5TlNL3 ). We need to know how this is being measured because research has shown that traditional techniques have made many errors (buff.ly/9YyhCvW). #AcademicSky #highered
