Book Synopsis Completing College by : Vincent Tinto
Download or read book Completing College written by Vincent Tinto and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2012-04-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even as the number of students attending college has more than doubled in the past forty years, it is still the case that nearly half of all college students in the United States will not complete their degree within six years. It is clear that much remains to be done toward improving student success. For more than twenty years, Vincent Tinto’s pathbreaking book Leaving College has been recognized as the definitive resource on student retention in higher education. Now, with Completing College, Tinto offers administrators a coherent framework with which to develop and implement programs to promote completion. Deftly distilling an enormous amount of research, Tinto identifies the essential conditions enabling students to succeed and continue on within institutions. Especially during the early years, he shows that students thrive in settings that pair high expectations for success with structured academic, social, and financial support, provide frequent feedback and assessments of their performance, and promote their active involvement with other students and faculty. And while these conditions may be worked on and met at different institutional levels, Tinto points to the classroom as the center of student education and life, and therefore the primary target for institutional action. Improving retention rates continues to be among the most widely studied fields in higher education, and Completing College carefully synthesizes the latest research and, most importantly, translates it into practical steps that administrators can take to enhance student success.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 91 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A variety of programs exist that provide assistance to under-prepared and at-risk students at 2-year and 4-year institutions of higher education. One of these programs is Student Support Services (SSS), a federal program funded by the U. S. Department of Education. The SSS program provides opportunities for academic development, assists students with basic college requirements, and serves to motivate students toward the successful completion of their postsecondary education. The goal of SSS is to increase the college retention and graduation rates of its participants and help students make the transition from one level of higher education to the next. SSS may also provide assistance to students receiving Federal Pell Grants (84.063). Those eligible to participate in SSS programs include students from low-income families, those who are first-generation college enrollees and students with disabilities evidencing academic need. The program includes tutoring; academic counseling, personal counseling, career advising; study skills enhancement and personal development workshops. Assistance is also given to students to apply for various forms of financial aid, including state and federal grant programs and local scholarships. Most programs also provide cultural enrichment activities. This study investigates the impact of the SSS program on the retention of students at SKCTC. Participants in this study were 125 students in the SSS program and 125 non-SSS students who entered SKCTC in the fall of 2003 and ended in 2007. The study compares the demographic profile of these groups.

Book Synopsis The Impact of the TRIO Student Support Services Program at UC Davis on Participant Retention Rates and GPA by : Eric Sanchez
Download or read book The Impact of the TRIO Student Support Services Program at UC Davis on Participant Retention Rates and GPA written by Eric Sanchez and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 124 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brief Literature Review The literature review explored the effects of undergraduate student support services and activities on the retention and academic success of low-income and first-generation college students. Topics from demographics, disadvantages, and strengths inherent to low-income and first-generation college students to institutional and social barriers as well as strengths from lessons learned and research already done on TRIO programs were studied. Statement of the Problem As budgets shrink the talk of accountability as well as the need for programs to reach ever-increasing levels of efficacy, expand. On the national level TRIO programs have proven success, however, it is just as important to demonstrate whether or not a program is also achieving significant success at the campus it is situated in. If a TRIO Student Support Service (SSS) program fails to establish itself, as a valid student support service for the campus, the need for it would likely be called into question. Worse yet, the opportunity to solidify itself as model college retention program could be lost and at higher risk is that programs ability to raise awareness and acceptance of TRIO programs, funding for which is held at the whim of our politicians on Capitol Hill. Methodology The study is quantitative and relies on descriptive statistics and statistical analysis of the data gathered. The statistical tools used include a two-tailed T test, and a measure of linear correlation. The statistical analysis of the data was used to determine if membership in the UC Davis TRIO SSS program has an impact, positive or negative, on TRIO SSS participant GPA and retention rates through the seventh quarter. Conclusions and Recommendations The study concluded that participation in the UC Davis TRIO SSS program does have a significant and positive impact on student retention/persistence rates through the seventh term of enrollment at UC Davis. In exploring the GPA variable the study revealed justification for services rendered as well as evidence of a possible positive impact on GPA. Recommendations range from ways to refine the current study to areas of further research broken down by sex, ethnicity, region, and other demographics.

This book was released on 2020-11-12 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The basic premise of neurodiversity is that there is no “normal” baseline for brain processes, but that all individual brains vary and therefore are diverse. The CAST organization estimates that 11% of college students enrolling in post-secondary campuses having a learning disability or learning difference. As neurodiverse students enroll in post-secondary education, the environments within which these students learn, can either support or impede their ability to succeed. Simply put, a neurodiverse campus population means that educators recognize that all students process and learn differently and must adapt our approaches and services in order to reach and support all students enrolled on our campuses. Neurodiverse students are a growing population on today’s college campus. Their growing presence prompts new approaches to support their success and change traditional student services and collegiate experiences. This practical guide: Assists readers in better understanding neurodiverse students and the way campus services can create welcoming environments Explores the role Universal Design for Learning (UDL) and Executive Functioning (EF) plays in student success, and Focuses on specific collegiate offices and services that effectively address the needs of neurodiverse learners. Chapters cover tutoring, learning supports, academic coaching, academic advising, career services, residential living, and classroom experiences that impact and assist neurodiverse college students.

Book Synopsis Resiliency in Action by : Nan Henderson
Download or read book Resiliency in Action written by Nan Henderson and published by Resiliency In Action. This book was released on 2007 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How to build bounce-back kids, families, schools, and communities is the theme of Resiliency In Action: Practical Ideas for Overcoming Risks and Building Strengths in Youth, Families, and Communities. It is edited by internationally recognized resiliency expert, trainer, and consultant Nan Henderson, M.S.W., whose publications are used in more than 25 countries. The book is a research-based, practical guide for educators, counselors, parents, community organizers, and mentors and is filled with the latest strategies for helping children, families, schools, and communities bounce back from risk, stress, trauma, and adversity.More than two dozen experts in the fields of child, family, organizational, and community resiliency contributed to the book, which challenges a widely accepted myth about people especially young people, who experience risks, stress, trauma, and adversity in their lives, according to Henderson. Contrary to popular opinion, the majority of these individuals, over time, do bounce back and do well. There is a growing body of scientific research from several fields that documents this fact and yields important information as to what can be done every day to facilitate this process of overcoming.This book is really three books in one: it contains the most recent research, hands-on and practical strategies, and stories of resilient individuals and best practices. The book includes 60 chapters grouped in seven sections: The Foundations of Resiliency, Resiliency and Schools, Resiliency and Communities, Resiliency Connections (Mentoring, Support, and Counseling), Resiliency and Youth Development, Resiliency and Families, and Resiliency and the Brain.
