Abstract:
|
Students who have failed multiple classes, which have led them to be placed on academic probation, are a population with unique challenges. They may hold a diminished perception of status that could cause feelings of disenfranchisement (Heisserer and Parette, 2002). Researchers completed a mixed methods study, examining one particular intervention for students on academic probation at their large state university: a one-credit course, called Mindset Connections. They uncovered how students who completed the course benefitted, including increased retention and graduation rates, and improved grade point averages. They also discovered how the faculty's Progressive Pedagogical approach contributed to improved retention rates. |
