This paper describes a multistep Enhanced Formative Assessment Program (EFAP) that features a Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) component. The program, which teaches students to become more effective learners, has been applied in a wide range of academic disciplines. In this paper we report on how the EFAP-SRL model can be applied to the area of developmental mathematics. In a 3-year series of studies, EFAP-SRL students enrolled in associate degree developmental mathematics courses consistently earned higher pass rates in the course as well as higher pass rates on the mathematics portion of the ACT. In addition, there is some evidence that program students transferred this learning into subsequent college-level mathematics courses.
