Survey Information

Pre-test surveys were collected on the first day of class (2/24/12) via www.surveymonkey.com. Students were
taken to a computer lab at the beginning of class to complete the survey in order to improve return rate. 22
students completed the survey.

Post-surveys were collected on the last day of class (3/30/12) via www.surveymonkey.com. Students were taken
to a computer lab and 16 surveys were collected. This course is designed for students who have applied and
plan to transfer to SJSU upon completion of this class. Because five students had not applied for fall 2012
admission to SJSU, they were advised to drop the course and to enroll one semester prior to transfer
