Society for Engineering Education, 2022 Work in Progress: Success and Retention Strategies for STEM Gatekeeper Courses in a Community CollegeIntroductionStudents encounter many challenges in their first year, including adjusting to the collegeenvironment and taking demanding courses. These challenges manifest in poor retention rates.Recent statistics at our institution show that the one-year retention of full-time first-time enteringstudents is 57% [1]. The likelihood of students quitting a major or dropping out of college issignificantly increased when they fail a course [2]. This project is being developed to addresshigh course failure rates by tackling some of the obstacles to success that students face.The
