Arkansas changes method for remedial college courses
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (http://bit.ly/2swvL7L ) reports that with the approval of the state Higher Education Coordinating Board this year the department has changed its method of which students should be placed in remedial programs.
Marla Strecker, senior associate director for the department, says the previous method for remedial courses became outdated after colleges began changing how they placed students in those courses.
