The Tutorial Services Program is a data-driven resource that aims to increase student success rates. Below are some examples of data utilized to refine and schedule resources.

 

Tutorial Services One-way ANCOVA (20‐21 and 21‐22)

A One‐way ANCOVA was conducted to determine a statistically significant difference between grades of students who attended tutorial compared to students in the same sections, controlling for one previous year’s GPA. Summer 2020‐Spring 2022 tutorial students were compared to all other students in the same sections. Their prior year GPA was calculated and students without prior enrollments were excluded from the analysis.

Grades were converted to a GPA type scale to perform the ANCOVA (A/P=4, B=3, C=2, D=1,

F/FW/NP/DR/W/EW=0).

There was a significant effect of tutorial on grades after controlling for one previous year’s GPA,

F=30.926, p<.01. The effect size was small to medium (d=0.304).
