Description
Minorities are underrepresented in high school Advanced Placement courses. AP Challenge Program is a longitudinal intervention project, addressing the root causes of this problem. The goals of APCP include cognitive and affective outcomes assessed by the School Attitude Assessment Survey-Revised and the Learning and Study Strategies Inventory. Data from APCP students focusing on student’s perceptions of the APCP serve as a basis for helping conference participants understand the challenges and adaptations students make to those challenges.
