The spatial reasoning course develops a lasting, foundational skill needed for success in gateway mathematics and science classes.
Peer-cooperative learning has been shown in the literature to improve student success in gateway science and mathematics courses.
More specifically, the pre-implementation model indicated that both students' demographics and their SAT-Math scores were independently and significantly correlated with their success in gateway courses.
When we examine whether demographics or student preparation (SAT scores) impact success in the gateway course, we see an interesting effect.
Fat Tire — known for its success as a "gateway" beer for those new to craft brews — is one of the most popular craft brands in the country, and the malty amber ale is now available on all Southwest Airlines and AirTran flights.
(14) The success of the gateway will depend on the joint effort of the Commission and the Member States.
(34) Compliance with a minimum list of quality requirements is essential for the success of the gateway in order to ensure that the provision of information or services is reliable, since, otherwise, the credibility of the gateway as a whole would be seriously undermined.
Higher SAT math scores strongly predicted gateway course success prior to STREAMS and did not predict gateway success after the introduction of peer-cooperative learning support.
Since SAT scores, particularly SAT-Math scores, are often correlated with gateway course success, we will retain SAT-Math as an independent statistical control whenever course success is an outcome.
"Measuring," said President Bush, in a discussion of his No Child Left Behind law, "is the gateway to success".
Chancellor Klein, in the interview, disagreed, saying that the pass-rate was the more critical measure because it indicated proficiency, an important gateway to success.
