A Dual Credit Recipe for Success
Janet Hurn, Senior Instructor; and Amy Fisher, Associate Professor and Acting Coordinator of Math / Miami University Middletown

This presentation describes the Dual Credit Partnership between Miami Valley Career Technology Center and Miami University Middletown. We will describe our model for dual credit, our assessment practices and outcomes of our first year. This model can be applied to other dual credit partnerships in the state. Our project was funded out of a grant resulting from the SB 311 / Ohio CORE passed last year. This program is allowing high school students from rural areas to take college classes for both high school and college credit and possibly starting them on a path towards an Ohio college degree. This has had enormous positive outcomes for both MVCTC and Miami. Included will be a description of our online tutoring program that resulted from this partnership.
