Description

Student Motivation: The Key to Improving Retention and Student Success

How to Maximize Student Motivation from Day 1 to Graduation

Available On-Demand

"Why do we typically design Day 1 around institutional needs of speeches, syllabi, grading systems and academic policies rather than the student-identified needs of relationship building, educational and career vision, and success skills? We only get one chance to make a great first impression: the first atmosphere, the first minute, the first hour, and the first day create the foundation for confidence, motivation, energy, and the commitment to persist."

Don Fraser, Professor, Durham College
Publisher, Making Your Mark

Webinar Presenter

Overview

Students show up on the first day of college motivated, eager, and ready to make a clean start. If we can grab on to that raw motivation and develop it, our students will be likely to persist. However, student motivation can be lost as early as Day 1 if we fail to meet students� first day needs and expectations. With The Right Start to College, we can give our students a foundation for their motivation and lock in their commitment to be successful. The Right Start to College is student-based and faculty-driven, and targets relationship-building, career vision and college success skills. The Right Start to College resulted in a +19% improvement in students believing they would graduate. (NISOD Innovations Abstracts, Vol. XXXVI, No. 15)
