title: Faculty-facilitated remediation: a model to transform at-risk students.
abstract: A remediation program was implemented during the semester break in an associate degree nursing program to increase the pass rate on the NCLEX-RN of at-risk students in a targeted medical-surgical nursing course. Through the use of a course management system and an adaptive quizzing program, participants were facilitated to take a more active role in their learning. Faculty mentored students and witnessed a transformation in participants through graduation. Ultimately, success of these at-risk students in passing the NCLEX-RN helped maintain this nursing program's pass rate.
