Implementation

The course grade is determined by the following: 15% — SmartBook 20% — Homework 15% — Quizzes administered with Connect 25% — Midterm administered with Connect 25% — Final administered with Connect

Results Achieved

Dzoga believes that Connect has helped Malcolm X’s new program be successful in a short period of time. "We are seeking MAERB accreditation, and we must demonstrate competency before a student can pass a course. Connect has helped us help students. We have an average of 2% of students needing to repeat courses" (Figure 1).

Conclusion

Although the Medical Assisting program has graduated its third class only, the new program enjoys high retention, completion, passing, and certification rates. Dzoga believes Connect ’s adaptive technology plays a huge role in the program’s success, because students have self study tools they can use to take ownership of their education.
