Improving a Credit Recovery Program at the High School Level: An Action Research Study
2019
Overview
The purpose of the study was to implement and examine an online credit recovery program as a possible route to expanding recovery options for students who fail mathematics classes at a high school to better address the dropout problem. The study compared the results of an online credit recovery program and a traditional credit recovery delivery method as measured by students' final scores and gathered information regarding how satisfied student and teacher participants were with the online credit recovery program at the high school level. Twelve students in Grades 9-12 at a high school in the Southern region of the United States were involved in this study. All students participated in an online Edgenuity credit recovery program in the area of mathematics for six weeks. The framework for this study was based on four perspectives of the learning environment: learner-, knowledge-, assessment-, and community-centered. The students in Grades 9 and10 enrolled in the online credit recovery program received a higher score than the students in Grades 9 and 10 enrolled in the traditional credit recovery course. The students in Grades 11 and 12 enrolled in the traditional credit recovery course received a higher score than the students in Grades 11 and 12 enrolled in the online credit recovery program. Based on the data compiled from the observations, it was evident that activities centered around learner, knowledge, assessment, and community took place. Teachers perceived the online credit recovery program as effective tool used to foster students' academic achievement. Overall, the perceptions of student and teacher participants of the online credit recovery program were favorable.
