What Everyone Needs to Know About Professor Flexibility, Philosophy, and Student Completion
October 4, 2021 @ 4:25 pm
This webinar provides an overview of a two-year project to determine if changes in teaching style and course materials increased overall student completion rates, as well as completion rates specifically for historically underrepresented groups. Course completion rates were collected for introductory and 200-level courses in psychology and sociology. Data were dis-aggregated by age, sex, race, socioeconomic status, and full- and part-time status. Data also included the completion rates for students who participated in TRIO services and/or took remedial course work. Participants learn how being flexible, supportive, and trusting with students can result in higher completion rates.
