This book was released on 2021 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this research study was to examine the impact of teacher collaboration in an early college high school (ECHS) and a traditional high school as it relates to student achievement among high school students and on other factors that distinguish an ECHS from a traditional high school. The ECHS refers to a specific high school model created to serve traditionally underrepresented students in higher education. Students enroll in dual credit courses, most often beginning sophomore year. A traditional high school setting refers to courses that offer students the high school credits and prepare them for the basic state assessments that all students must acquire for New York State graduation. Much of the research suggests that a traditional high school prepares only some students for post-secondary education, as opposed to an ECHS, which prepares all students for post-secondary education. High schools designed to prepare all students for college success look dramatically different from those that prepare only a portion of students. These high schools have certain key characteristics. The most important and perhaps the most often overlooked is an intellectually coherent program of study based on a curriculum that grows progressively more challenging over the years (Harris et al, 2010). This is a concurrent exploratory mixed methods design. This study combined elements of quantitative and qualitative methods. For the qualitative part of this study, triangulation of data included, but was not limited to, interviews and observations. The participants in this study consisted of 140 teachers and support staff (i.e., guidance counselors, school psychologist, social workers, and community mental health providers)with years of school experience ranging from new (1 to 5 years) to veteran (over 15 years), serving in a large urban school district during the 2018-2019 school year. For the quantitative part of this study, data examined from the two high schools included, among other sources, the New York State Algebra I test results of nearly 687 students. Teacher survey data was collected using Olivier and Hipp's (2010) Professional Learning Community Assessment-Revised (PLCA-R) survey instrument, which deconstructs professional learning communities (PLCs) into the same six elements that are the pillars of an ECHS. These two forms of data were used to answer each of the questions that are guiding this study. An analysis of variance (one-way ANOVA) was used to determine a difference, if any, between an ECHS and a traditional high school in both PLCA-R and New York State assessment data. If that is the case, a hierarchical linear modeling (HLM) was used to determine whether any of these differences could be attributed to any of the six PLCA-R elements.
