Eliminating Barriers to Dual Enrollment in Oklahoma
Roach, Rick; Gamez Vargas, Juanita; David, Kevin M.
New Directions for Community Colleges, n169 p31-38 Spr 2015
Policy, financial, and transportation barriers have limited participation in dual enrollment for marginalized (low-socioeconomic, first-generation, and ethnic minority) students in Oklahoma. This chapter presents a collaborative effort by education and community leaders that has successfully eliminated these barriers and increased the number of marginalized students participating in dual enrollment.
