This document summarizes the findings of the HERE Project which studied student "doubting", or doubts about continuing in higher education, and its impact on retention. The project found that:
1) Approximately 1/3 of first year students experience doubting, and doubters are less likely to stay in HE than non-doubters.
2) Doubters report a poorer university experience and cite multiple reasons for doubting related to their program, support systems, and ability to adapt.
3) The primary times students consider leaving are either side of Christmas in their first year, though few doubters reported pre-arrival doubts.

University of Toledo Student Experience Improvement Strategic PlanIoan Duca
The fundamental objective addressed in the Student Experience Strategic Plan 2011 is to create a distinctive, nationally recognizedstudent experience by realigning the university culture and climate. This student-‐centered, engaging academic environment will be achieved by focusing on improving overall retention rates, increasing enrollment and recruitment of higher-‐achieving students. Student service improvement and development along with institutional transparency will be key factors in this journey. The core focus will be to cultivate interdepartmental relationships with the aim of enmeshing faculty and staff into a new pledge.
This pledge is not just to Ohioans. It is not just to Americans. It is a pledge to anyone in search of knowledge and a better life. This pledge will be to uphold our mission to improve the human through learning, support, and an inspiring educational environment. The realization of these objectives will promise our students that the cutting-‐edge education they receive at the University of Toledo will be matched with an unparalleled student experience.
Over the next three years we will transform our University in several manners. In the first year, we will focus on improving our academic and support services. Services currently provided will be evaluated against those utilized by top performing universities
across the United States. We will embrace freshmen to our campus-‐community through exciting social and career opportunities.Partnerships with our deans, faculty, and most importantly our students will ensure that University of Toledo students feel fulfilledand prepared for their career choices. Providing academic support and quality will only be part of our first-‐year aims. We will work with our academic and support departments to foster community and business relationships for the purpose of strengthening
student career opportunities.
The second year of action will continue the advancement of university best-‐practices. Students will view their academic advisors as partners in success extending far beyond the traditional duties of course selection, scheduling, and registration. The student-‐staff
connection will be strengthened and we will engage them into helping us transform the university culture. They will succeed because we will identify and target populations at-‐risk of attrition, and ensure that we provide them with the tools for success. All
UT students will graduate and know that we provided them with student experiences that will last their lifetimes.
By our third year, the programs we have fostered will be evaluated to gauge retention and recruitment improvement rates. We will continue our successful initiatives and look to other areas of improving the student experience in order to promote the university sustainability.
Transforming a university culture to one of student centeredness has been the momentous mission

Kenneth C. Green, The Campus Computing Project, Moderator
Christy Price, Dalton State College & Carey Roberts, Arkansas Tech University, Panelists
The intellectual roots of the current conversation about student engagement can be traced to the
1984 Involvement in Learning report of the US Department of Education’s Study on the Conditions of
Excellence in Postsecondary Education. The Involvement report challenged faculty and institutions
to recognize and to leverage the importance of student “involvement” and motivation in the postsecondary experience. Over the past 26 years, the concept of student involvement has morphed
into efforts to foster student engagement: campuses and curricular content providers now strive to
develop and provide learning experiences and course materials that are “sticky” — that draw students in
and reinforce their motivation to learn. The panel session will highlight initiatives that have successfully
fostered student engagement, with particular attention to millennial learners
Leading Learning Behaviour and AttendanceNick Burnett

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
