Download or read book Relationships Among Learning Community Participation Student Self efficacy Confidence Outcome Expectations and Commitment written by Karen Ann Zunkel and published by . This book was released on 2002 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study brings together research on learning communities and student self-efficacy, confidence, outcome expectations, and commitment. Participation in learning communities has been proven to increase retention rates and success. Similarly, high levels of self-efficacy, confidence, and outcome expectations are correlated with increased retention rates and success. 356 students enrolled in the undeclared engineering orientation course were surveyed at the beginning of fall semester. Of these students, 130 completed a follow-up survey at the end of spring semester. About half of the students completing the initial survey were enrolled in a course-clustered Undeclared Engineering Learning Community, which was comprised of an orientation course, a math course, and a weekly peer-facilitated math session during fall semester. The students also met regularly with a peer mentor during fall semester. The survey measured math and science self-efficacy, general academic confidence, math and science outcome expectations, and commitment to engineering. Demographic and academic performance data were also collected from the Office of the Registrar. Based on the surveys and demographic data, significant results include the following: 1) There was a difference between the students electing to participate in the learning community and those electing not to participate in the learning community, with those not participating having better academic preparation (as measured by ACT) and higher self-efficacy in their individual skills, 2) Students participating in the learning community were retained in engineering at higher rate, and 3) All students experienced a significant decline in self-efficacy and confidence from fall to spring semester, however, students retained in engineering experienced a significantly lower drop. Participation in this moderately integrated learning community did not have a significant effect on academic performance, self-efficacy, confidence, or outcome expectations. Recommendations as a results of this research include: 1) The need to re-evaluate the structure of the community in relation to math performance as measured by grade point averages, 2) A need to investigate why students elect to participate and the marketing of the learning community, and 3) Expansion to include qualitative measures, a longitudinal analysis, and additional types/structures of learning communities.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines the critical role that teachers play in supporting at-risk student populations to stay in school and successfully complete their graduation requirements. Thompson addresses how high schools may support marginal students in achieving success by the implementation of teacher self-efficacy and a positive classroom environment. The study identifies ways in which administrators at all levels can support teacher’s professional development and student success through reinforced accountability and consistency. The study also addresses how to grow and strengthen students to not only to stay in the traditional school setting, but to ensure the process will prepare students to be academically, socially, and emotionally ready for college and a career. Fostering this environment requires collaboration and teamwork from teachers, administrators, and parents. Students will demonstrate academic achievement when the school environment is positive, equitable, safe and rigorous.

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.
