Title: Systems for offering concurrent enrollment at high schools and community colleges
Description: "The terms concurrent enrollment, dual credit, dual enrollment, postsecondary enrollment, and coenrollment are used interchangeably to describe a rising trend in academic programming at community colleges that supports seamless education. The concurrent enrollment programs discussed in this issue ... are community college-level courses that are provided to high school students on either the high school or college campus. Students enrolled in these courses usually receive academic credit that is reflected in both their high school and college transcripts. The chapters in this volume outline several models of concurrent enrollment programming and focus on the challenges and issues associated with developing and maintaining such programs. Funding formulas, staffing issues, marketing, curriculum, faculty development, transferability of credit, student recruitment, and quality and effectiveness are discussed within the framework of different regions of the United States."--Publisher.
