Download or read book Student Success, Everyone's Business written by Jack J. Bainter and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 1998 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: High schools, community colleges, business schools, trade schools, colleges, and universities are committed in their mission statements to helping students succeed. Unfortunately, not all employees are fully committed nor are all administrators knowledgeable about how to effectively address the topic. Since all employees have direct or indirect opportunities to favorably or unfavorably impact students' success potential, literally all employees and volunteers must be made aware of their obligations. This book is most applicable to postsecondary institutions, but offers many ideas valuable to secondary schools, particularly those with high drop-out rates. Student Success, Everyone's Business describes postsecondary school dropout indicators and hence provides strategies schools can implement or strengthen to help students stay in school and succeed. Advice in the book involves every school employee. Twelve imperatives with which every school must provide students assistance are explained. Each is followed by an expediency through which the school can implement/accomplish the imperatives. The twelve imperatives are to help students: 1. Believe they can succeed 2. Understand how to make decisions 3. Know how to solve problems 4. Wisely utilize their time 5. Gain support from their home environment 6. Manage stress 7. Learn to set meaningful goals 8. Learn or recall how to effectively study 9. Master daily survival 10. Understand the importance of personal commitment 11. Form mutual support groups 12. Keep in mind the value of the education they are pursuing Next is a chapter providing 101 helpful hints to augment the twelve imperatives. Again, each is followed by an implementation expediency. These helpful hints are presented in eight sub-chapter units. They are: Early Bonding Student Services Classroom Matters Learning Enhancements Motivational Opportunities/Recognition Facilities Faculty/Staff Selection and Development Staff in Total If student retention from matriculation to graduation is less than 90%, it is a social shame, a drain on school resources, a likely negative impact on colleges' student loan default rates, and a disservice to students. If the student retention rate is 60-70%, as is the case for many schools, a formal strategy to enhance student retention is needed, if not required. Student Success, Everyone's Business is a painless, practical blueprint of how literally every employee at the school can actively support student success, which translates to student retention and graduation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the statistics, any organization can be sustained. How? By imagining the smallest step with the biggest payoff, and then choosing that one step. This primer helps you imagine ways to free everybody in your organization to do just that, by making it everybody’s business to know and grow the enterprise. Industrial and organizational psychologist Dr. Marta Wilson and her team of experts show how leaders in small businesses, large corporations, government agencies, and military organizations have found their best options by asking this recurring question: What is the smallest step with the biggest return? Wilson believes in the power of asking questions and listening—to customers, employees, suppliers, investors, influencers—as the best way to improve products or services. As the head of your organization, you must initiate dialogue to uncover ideas from each stakeholder’s unique vantage point. The short “Ask Yourself” section in each chapter will jump-start your application of the dialogue tools she provides. Through stories and interviews, Everybody’s Business delivers a big idea to help you usher in maximum workplace productivity, efficiency, effectiveness, and responsiveness—all of which will result in long-term growth.

Download or read book Strong Starts, Supported Transitions and Student Success written by Andrew Funston and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2014-03-17 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The shift to mass participation in higher education is a welcome international trend. In Australia the number of young adults attempting a degree course at university has increased by close to twenty five percent in less than a decade. Campuses are becoming more culturally and linguistically diverse. More university students are coming from poorer families and disadvantaged educational backgrounds. The authors of Strong Starts, Supported Transitions and Student Success celebrate the diversity of new university learning communities while recognising the challenges faced by many commencing students. This book presents research findings, strategic thinking and innovative approaches to student transitions and retention at one of Australia’s newer institutions, designated “The University of Opportunity”. Drawing extensively on international scholarship and the work of retention and transition experts in North America, the United Kingdom, Australia and New Zealand, the book provides several theoretically-informed case studies, as well as more general discussions and practical advice to academics and professional staff involved in “the first year in higher education”, and especially those practitioners working to enhance “the student experience”.

Book excerpt: A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give such a lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasnt about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sometimes it seems as if business exists purely to enrich a small elite. While the world is facing unprecedented challenges, it appears that businesses are only interested in making profits or paying bonuses. Big businesses are powerful machines. We all know they have the potential to cause enormous social and environmental harm; but with their resources and expertise they can also be great engines of positive change. Rather than fighting the power of business, should we be seeking to harness it? Everybody's Business is a journey through the business world. We meet the companies that are driving business forward by mobilising to tackle the challenges we all face. At its heart, this is a story of businesses doing what they do best: delivering products and services that people need, creating jobs and finding new ways to solve old problems. It's a story of people taking the initiative, and finding inspiration in the positive impact of their actions. We see how some of today's leading companies are realising that lasting success comes from having a purpose broader than making a profit. They know that business should benefit customers, employees, suppliers, neighbours and the wider world, as well as shareholders. Enduring value comes from making business work for everybody.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experienced authors describe all aspects of a personal librarian program, including potential campus partners, diverse student populations, marketing approaches, technology integration, various assessment methods, and common pitfalls and how to avoid them. In order to get the most out of their research, students need to understand the depth of resources and services available to them. Personal librarian programs help students—especially new ones—to feel welcome in the library and comfortable asking for assistance. They provide enhanced support and serve as students' point of contact to help them build the information literacy skills necessary to successfully navigate their academic path. Personal Librarians: Building Relationships for Student Success focuses on specific ways to connect with and to engage first-year and other new-to-campus students. The authors provide concrete guidance, informed by interviews with other librarians who have successfully implemented such programs, for librarians wishing to begin or expand programs of their own. Personal librarian programs provide opportunities for the proactive to build relationships that grow student confidence as future needs arise—and the authors, who coordinate personal librarian programs at their own institutions, demonstrate how well they work.

Whenever students go through trials and tribulations in life they forget the daily life lessons, which will elevate them to the next level - every student needs to learn how to turn their setback into a comeback. We are all students of the biggest teacher called life and one of the first things any student will learn is the alphabet so it is something they will always remember, whether youre 3 years old or 35, the alphabet will be stuck in your head for life! But why is it that we are so quick to forget daily life lessons but we never forget the alphabet? If you link what you dont know with what you already know, then you will never truly forget. Every letter will include a life lesson and a set task to ensure you are making productive steps towards your success. Readers will be able to gain a deeper perspective of the alphabet and learn that there are life lessons within a simple nursery rhyme that we were taught as children. The ABCs To Student Success is a smart, motivating, innovative and competent guide to ensure you are being pushed closer to success. This book implements a psychological approach to teach life changing lessons, content and motivation by using something we all know and remember, the alphabet.
