Publisher Description:

Capture My Heart, Educte My Soul is a training and reflection manual for higher education faculty who teach adult students deemed unprepared or underprepared for the rigors of college coursework. These students place into developmental education courses, and enter higher education representing every socio-economic class, ethnicity, faith, and background. However, the reality of enrolling in college underprepared is disproportionately true for low-income students, first-generation students, and students of color. The college success disparities are disturbing for such students, particularly, although not exclusively, at community colleges, prompting some researchers to deem remedial education as the systemic black hole from which students are unlikely to emerge.
