目的：Quantway是卡内基数学途径的一项倡议，它重新设计了传统发展数学课程的内容，教学法和结构，同时解决了学生成功的传统障碍，并支持广泛的发展学生实现他们的数学潜力。具体来说，Quantway是一个定量推理序列，由一个名为Quantway 1的单学期加速发展数学课程和一个名为Quantway 2的大学水平数学课程组成。本研究评估的发展数学课程，Quantway 1，在其实施的前六个学期的有效性。方法：我们使用了分层线性建模技术进行倾向得分匹配37名学生的特点，比较Quantway 1学生的课程表现与传统的发展数学课程的匹配比较学生。结果如下：Quantway 1的学生表现出显着更高的成功几率在满足发展数学课程的要求，并在大学数学课程在接下来的一年比匹配的比较学生入学。此外，Quantway 1效应在所有性别和种族/民族亚组以及几乎所有教室和大学中都是积极的。贡献：这项研究提供了强有力的证据表明，Quantway 1提高了学生在满足发展数学要求方面的成功率，并促进了学生成绩的公平性。的影响和未来的方向进行了讨论的途径。
Objective: Quantway is a Carnegie Math Pathways initiative, which redesigns the content, pedagogy, and structure of traditional developmental mathematics courses to simultaneously tackle traditional barriers to student success and support a broad range of developmental students in achieving their mathematics potential. Specifically, Quantway is a quantitative reasoning sequence that is comprised of a single term accelerated developmental mathematics course called Quantway 1 and a college-level mathematics course called Quantway 2. This study assesses the effectiveness of the developmental mathematics course, Quantway 1, during its first six semesters of implementation. Method: We used a hierarchical linear modeling technique to conduct propensity score matching across 37 student characteristics to compare the course performance of Quantway 1 students with matched comparison students from traditional developmental mathematics courses. Results: Quantway 1 students demonstrated significantly higher odds of success in fulfilling developmental mathematics course requirements and enrolling in college mathematics courses in the following year than matched comparison students. In addition, Quantway 1 effects were positive across all sex and race/ethnicity subgroups as well as in nearly all classrooms and colleges. Contributions: This study provides robust evidence that Quantway 1 increases student success in fulfilling developmental mathematics requirements and advances equity in student outcomes. Implications of and future directions for the Pathways are discussed.
