Barbara and Susan,
We would like to allow students in the( 340-349) TSI score range who might currently be
enrolled in MAT 0213, to be allowed to change to the course pairing program consisting of
the following:
NCB 0500 and MAT 1023, MAT 1033, or MAT 1073.
The reasons for this are:
1. The enrollment in NCB 0500 has been low and dropped.
2. The NCB 0500 course topics and materials would help in all 3 of the courses
listed above.
3. UTSA is supposed to have option of "course pairing" for students from
the TSI Texas Administrative Code (Chapter 4 - Subchapter C).
"An institution of higher education must base developmental coursework on
research-based best practices that include all of the following components:.....(8) course
pairing of developmental education courses/interventions with entry-level freshmen
courses, also known as...co-enrollment of developmental education and entry-level freshmen
courses as defined in §4.53 (12) of this title..."
The Math Dept. faculty will work on the recruiting from the MAT 0213 classes.
Below you will find Anita's email to have the NCB 0500 opened up to MAT 1023, 1033,
and 1073 students.
Thanks so much for your help in making this happen, and letting the advisors know what is
going on at this time.
Sorry about the timing as I know everyone is extremely busy at this time!
