Our project is funded by the National Science Foundation, through its Research in Disability Education (RDE) program. Our overall goal is to improve the success of all students, including those with disabilities, in their community college science, math, engineering, and technology classes. We will do this by achieving each of the following more specific goals: to create a learning community, to design innovative classroom methodologies, to develop a Best Practices Guidebook for studying and learning, and to write a guidebook for implementing a similar project at other community colleges. These goals are described in more detail through this website.
