The “guided pathways” model as not just a student success initiative, but a way to redesign how a college operates. This week's episode of The Key podcast explores the “guided pathways” model, which hundreds of community colleges have embraced to give students a clearer path to reaching their educational goals. Davis Jenkins, a senior research scholar at the Community College Research Center at Columbia University's Teachers College, and Hana Lahr, a senior research associate and director of applied learning there, join The Key to discuss their recent papers evaluating how guided pathways has spread, what iterations of the model work best, and what it takes to bring about this kind of sweeping, “whole college” change at institutions that can be both tradition-bound and financially strapped. The Key is hosted by Inside Higher Ed Co-founder and Editor Doug Lederman. This episode is sponsored by Coursedog.
Last year, around 1.4 million high school students engaged in dual enrollment coursework. In this episode, we dive deep into the fascinating world of dual enrollment—a rising higher education trend that's reshaping the educational journey for high school students and the colleges that serve them. Dual enrollment coursework can be transformational, and while the avenues a student takes can differ, the term generally applies to courses of study where high school students tackle college-level classes, earning both high school and college credits simultaneously. Our guest, Dr. Davis Jenkins, is a distinguished expert on dual enrollment. As a senior research scholar at Columbia University's Community College Research Center (CCRC), Dr. Jenkins has a wealth of experience in dual enrollment programs. His research has uncovered some intriguing insights into the most effective ways to deliver dual enrollment. In this interview, Dr. DeHay and Dr. Jenkins will discuss: The primary goals of dual enrollment. The impact of dual enrollment on college readiness, immediate college attendance, and first-year retention rates. The work being done by CCRC's guided pathways—a whole-college redesign model aimed at helping all students explore, choose, plan, and complete programs aligned with their career and education goals. We hope you join us for this enlightening conversation on one of the approaches to higher education that is shaping our future.

My guest today is my buddy Davis Jenkins (@DavisJenkins21). Davis loves helping people, and that is part of the reason why he became a real estate agent for Keller Williams. He is currently serving Woodstock, Georgia and surrounding areas. In this podcast we actually didn't talk too much about real estate because I wanted Davis to be share his story. This was the first time Davis had spoken out on a public platform like this so I really appreciated his vulnerability and honesty. Before we started recording, Davis was a little apprehensive about where this podcast would be shared and who would listen to it since he did share a lot of things that most people would not know about him. I explained that, yes, this podcast would be out in the world for anyone to listen to, but what better way for someone to hear your story than through a long form, two hour conversation where you can really explain yourself and share your entire story. Wouldn't that be better than someone hearing it through the grapevine or you sharing with them in a 10 minute conversation? I think it might be the BEST way for someone to hear your story because its coming straight from YOU. He hadn't really thought about it that way yet, so once his perspective changed he was able to really open up and get deep with me and I can't thank him enough for that.
