Explanation of the law and it implementation
AB705 is meant to help students break through all the remedial course work that they previously had to take due to placement testing.
The motivation for this is that students simply cannot get through Algebra 1&2 before they give up on college. These students are in non-technical majors who, at most, need a basics stats course.
The goal is to get non-technical majors through general education requirements and on to their major and graduation.
The implementation at our school (in the math department) consists of eliminating math prerequisites for non-science track majors. Stats is the main course that people need and to help students we are offering a support class in addition to the lecture.
What is your opinion of this problem, law, implementation?
I like getting rid of prerequisites for non-science majors. Just get them into the job market where the can be productive.
