Retention Definitely An Important Concept

Rentention is important as more and more emphasis is being placed on keeping students in school. It is important as instructors to recognize the early signs of a student in danger of leaving the school. It is important as instructors for us to play our part and intervening when necessary to change the attitudes of students. Making sure the student has support while entering this learning journey is important in establishing trust. I definitely plan on incorporating the tools learned from this course and apply to my role as instructor for a career college.

yes, yes, I agree retention is so important. I am one that will call my students when they are out or email them. I want them to know that they are missed. The key for me is to make sure it doesn't come off as my trying to be their friend but, that of a caring instructor who wants to see them succeed.
