Student Development Theory
June 1, 2023 @ 8:30 am - 10:00 am
Student development theory provides the basis for the practice of student development. Knowledge of student development theory enables student affairs professionals to proactively identify and address student needs, design programs, develop policies, and create healthy college environments that encourage positive growth in students. Because student development theories focus on intellectual growth as well as affective and behavioral changes during the college years, they also encourage the collaborative efforts of student services professionals and faculty in enhancing student learning and maximizing positive student outcomes in higher education settings (Evans, Forney, & Guido-DiBrito, 1998).
Please join Dr. Denise Baumann, Associate Director of Residence Life, Housing, & Dining Services at Missouri State University, as she highlights student development theories which can be utilized to design programs to assist students or enable others to understand the needs of students as they develop in college.
