Item The Impact of a Student Success Course on Academic Achievement and Persistence(University of Alabama Libraries, 1997) Stephenson, G. DevinThe purpose for conducting this study was to assess the effectiveness of a college-credit, student success course in increasing persistence rates and improving student grade point averages (GPAs) at Bevill State Community College, an institution of the Alabama College System. The study was designed to identify possible significant differences in persistence rates and academic achievement between students in a 2-year community college who successfully complete the student success course (treatment group) and those students who do not enroll in the course (control group). Additionally, the study was to examine ethnic and gender-related differences in academic achievement and persistence between students in the control and treatment groups. Data for the study were collected from student records for the 1993-94 academic year maintained in Bevill State Community College's management information system, ACCESS, The Alabama Computer Consortium for Educational System Software. The study represented an effort to determine whether an extended student success program featuring intense interaction with academic skills and life management skills does serve to foster student retention and academic success.Item The Frogs and Toads of Alabama(University of Alabama Libraries, 1956) Brown, Jack StanleyItem Biographical study of selected leaders in health, physical education and recreation (Vol. 1)(University of Alabama Libraries, 1970) Martinez, Ermelindo MontItem An analysis of the teaching of composition in selected secondary schools of Alabama(University of Alabama Libraries, 1972) McCrory, Nellie RoseItem Analysis of problems in rocket base heat transfer during the aspiration phase(University of Alabama Libraries, 1974) McAnelly, William BentonItem Disadvantaged white elementary school children's self-concepts and attitudes toward school versus their teachers' perceptions of the children's self-concepts and attitudes toward school(University of Alabama Libraries, 1972) McCombs, Robert JosephItem Capital budgeting in selected states(University of Alabama Libraries, 1965) McClain, Jackson M.Item A study of selected individuals in the state of Alabama to determine the adequacy of the training of managers in adult education(University of Alabama Libraries, 1976) McCloud, Rosa LeeItem The relationship between bond strength and bar size, bar cover, and bar spacing in reinforced concrete flexural members(University of Alabama Libraries, 1974) McClure, Joseph VincentItem A program of instruction in fundamental rhythm, using the language master, an audio-visual instructional device(University of Alabama Libraries, 1969) McArthur, William FrankItem Resource development programs in two-year colleges: a national survey(University of Alabama Libraries, 1974) McCain, J.
