What Can I Do to Increase Student Retention?
Program includes a CD with the video presentation, plus supplemental materials, PowerPoint slides, and complete transcript • $99
It’s never a good feeling to learn that a student has left your class … or worse, left school altogether. Often it comes as a complete surprise — before you even realize they have a problem, they’re gone.
There are some powerful tools and techniques you can use to prevent these “unhappy endings,” and you can learn about them in the 20 Minute Mentor program, What Can I Do to Increase Student Retention?
Watch a brief clip:
This fast, focused video presentation is led by two veteran educators: Rob Jenkins, professor of English and “Two-Year Track” columnist for The Chronicle of Higher Education, and Debi Moon, J.D., recipient of a National Teaching Excellence Award and an administration and faculty member at Georgia Perimeter College.
Together, they share strategies for keeping your students connected to you, their classmates, and the course material.
During this program you’ll learn:
- How to promote a sense of community and collaboration.
- How to help students discover their learning styles (and adjust your teaching accordingly).
- How to guard against students falling behind and getting “lost.”
- How to promote active learning and critical thinking.
- How to build student confidence and competence through participation in shared-teaching exercises.
- And more.
You’ll come away with ideas you can implement right now in your classroom to give every student a better chance for success.
