Re-Energizing Student Success: High-Impact Practices as a Mechanism to Connect State Policy to Classroom Practice
Jacobson, Claire E.
Change: The Magazine of Higher Learning, v52 n3 p17-23 2020
In 2017 the National Association of System Heads launched its Taking Student Success to Scale: High Impact Practices Network. The goals of this initiative were to identify and scale promising High Impact Practices (HIPs) at both the campus and system level to prioritize equitable participation for low-income and first-generation students and students of color and to implement faculty development in defining quality and assessing student learning. While student success efforts or completion initiatives have been a priority for both systems and campuses, this project has highlighted that what is often missing or lacking focus in conversations about the "completion agenda" is attention on faculty as primary participants and, related to this concern, on student learning as a primary outcome. By putting student learning and faculty development front and center, campuses and systems can more tangibly connect state goals, policies, and plans to the classroom.
