Higher education policy, college access and student success; remedial and developmental education; community colleges; postsecondary instruction and course delivery models; financial aid; research study design and policy evaluation. Angela Boatman is a higher education scholar whose work focuses on the evaluation of college access and completion policies, particularly in the areas of remediation, financial aid, and community college student success.
She conducts large-scale studies on the impact of innovations in the delivery of remedial math courses, including the use of instructional technology, on collegiate student outcomes. Her work also explores the timing of remediation, examining the effects of high school-based programs compared to courses offered in college, particularly for students further down the academic preparation distribution.
Additional projects include the evaluation of state transfer policies for community college students, and the ways in which principles of behavioral economics can better inform the design and delivery of federal student loan programs.
