A simple metric for measuring student success is the course’s DFW rate (D,F, Withdrawal). The purpose of this symposium is to introduce and explore strategies implemented in General & Organic Chemistry courses that aim to increase overall student success, notably for students who are at risk of not passing. Attendees and presenters can get ideas from others regarding strategies for decreasing DFW rates amongst their students. This can include institutions and classes of various sizes utilizing multiple teaching styles. Both qualitative and quantitative analyses of these strategies is acceptable.
