This report summarizes key outcomes and discussion points from the first meeting of the Metropolitan Higher Education Consortium's Developmental Education Initiative. On January 6, 2004, 37 developmental educators from Twin Cities colleges and universities participated in think-tank sessions to begin discussions about college readiness and collaborations. Facilitators led breakout sessions focusing on thematic areas of writing and English Language Learners (ELL), math and science, and social sciences and the arts. Outcomes included a range of ideas that shaped future phases of this regional developmental education initiative.
