Poor mathematics preparation severely restricts students' future educational and occupational choices. This paper explores the extent to which differences were observed in the pedagogical practices of those teaching college introductory college math at a community college and at a fouryear college. Although college math instructors generally may be poorly prepared to teach their assigned course content, this lack of preparation may be less characteristic of community college instructors for various reasons including their educational training and occupational priorities. Findings indicated that recommended practices such as metacognitive strategies and references to prior knowledge were more likely to be used by math instructors at a two-year than a four-year college. The implications of these findings for professional development and hiring requirements are discussed and emphasized for college math department chairs and administrators generally.
