Article Synopsis
- A new companion service course was introduced in Cornell University's general chemistry class, focusing on supporting underrepresented and economically disadvantaged students.
- Students in the program showed significant improvements in final grades, with priority students (those needing more support) improving by +0.67 and +0.51 standard deviations, while non-priority students improved by +0.66 and +0.62.
- The course not only boosted immediate performance but also showed that these gains were retained in subsequent courses, indicating a positive impact on long-term retention in STEM fields.
