The following is a case study on a Gateways to Completion (G2C) course redesign in two sections of Introduction to Sociology (SOCI 1101) at Georgia Southwestern State University (GSW). The course redesign is currently in year two of the process and, so far, consists of
1. bolstering supplemental instruction (SI) and
2. the administration of pre-and post-exam wrappers.
Results indicate that SI is beneficial for the small number of students who utilize it and that exam wrappers increase metacognitive skills and slightly improve subsequent exam performance.
