Best laugh I've had in a while!

Chris, you can automatically mute everyone too if that helps.

Hi George!! You look great :-)

But, that was kind of funny. We all need a laugh at this point...

I love that George got in a plug for Luther College. ;-)

I found that two High Impact Practices was the sweet spot - had the most impact on increasing students’ sense of belonging on campus.

That's what our research supports as well

Everyone who is not George Kuh, please mute your microphone and do not un-mute. Thank you.

Can anyone explain what a salutary effect is? Thanks in advance :)

Salutary means beneficial, according to google

had to look it up

is there any research on whether having a HIP during the sophomore and/or junior years makes an appreciable difference in time to degree? I feel this is true but would like to cite specific studies

definition of salutary. 1 : producing a beneficial effect : remedial salutary influences. 2 : promoting health : curative.

:-)

Erin, We examined the impact of participating in Undergraduate Research and , despite that experience typically happening in the Sophomore or Junior year, led to a significant 2.5% increase in retention to the next year compared to those who didn’t do UG Research.

That's great. Would love to learn more... I'll try to connect offline

Serving others should be included in all mission statements, particularly educational institutions that grow our youth so they are prepared to serve others first. This is clearly an important attribute give current state of affairs. How do we infuse this concept into HIPs?

Suzanne, service learning, or community engaged learning is included in the original list of HIPs identified by Kuh in his 2008 study.

Peer mentoring is definitely a high impact practice. Our first year experience program, which has been around 30 years, swears by peer mentors as being key to their success.

Love seeing campus employment framed as a HIP!

I suppose, I was looking to see what universities may offer as result of this COVID-19 crisis. I have colleagues who have had to make swift changes as a result of current state of affairs.

That’s a great point Suzanne! Thanks for sharing the link.

Can advising be a high impact practice for students?

Where could we find resources/research/information on the impact of honors programs on low-income community college students? We would like to better serve this underrepresented population in Dallas.

Can virtual volunteering be a HIP?

In addition to peers, how do you get students to take advantage of the myriad of opportunities out there for students?

Kathleen, I am interested in this as well.

We are attempting to convert a couple of our Study USA (study away) courses into “experiential” virtual classes. Are there any resources or best practices for this type of student engaged course work?

And you’d have to consider advisor turnover in light of the role of sustained engagement and time.

We are doing something with CC service learning where students are providing a service to community agencies using social media - meaning designing social media plans, supporting teaching and learning on how to use social media and actually piloting a plan. This is volunteer and tied the sociology course outcomes. I would consider this a HIP given the circumstances and even outside of today’s challenges with social distancing.

Is there a recommended citation for the 8 behaviors in high impact practices?

Yes, I would also like to read the eight behaviors in HIPs

https://www.aacu.org/leap/hips is this what you are looking for?

All you can get this from AACU website for free

still only see the power point

not seeing the demo site

Do you have any venues for a "One Stop" you could suggest?

I think the question is about the behaviors that GK was speaking of (e.g., real time feedback, substantial time with student). I'm interested too.

How large is your staff? And do you employ/engage students in this work?

Question for SOC: What is the range of universities that you serve? How do they vary is size? Are most of your clients smaller colleges, mid-large size universities?

how can HIPS translate to online environments?

Handshake is more than "just another internship site." We currently use it to centralize ALL ELOs FWS, leadership roles, on-campus research opportunities, etc.

GK: Many of us are implementing ePortfolios and trying to also digitally badge students in 21st century skills for greater employability and to also do ePortfolios more intentionally. However, these take up more university resources and are difficult to scale. Do you see any additional benefits to digital badges?

What digital badge program are you using?

We created our own using CAS and AACU standards

But we are looking into Credly, Badgr,

What high impact practice do you think will arise as a result of COVID-19? What is the new way to keep students engaged in this environment?

But they don't align with standards

We have to do that

And then assess

Yes, absolutely Chris

Many of your added features like the tag, assignment etc. seem like handy things but would need tighter integration with already existing systems like grading, LMS, registrars. how can you integrate SOC with existing enterprise systems like Canvas, Oncourse, Workday?

ePortoflios are an 11th HIP, that's why there is movement

The question is about digital badging

How does Comprehensive Learner Record (CLR) help support the collection of assessment data, evidence of learning, reflection and sharing of these data with employers? How does SOC intersect with CLR?

To support George’s point, e-Portfolio’s power is in the reflection process. No employers have ever asked us to look at them. The students who use them can better articulate what they know in context of what employer needs are

Starting learning e-portfolios in the Ivy Tech Honors College - two-year students. If any 4-year schools here wish to chat about transfer students :)

Well said Marianna.

What are ways that HIPs are incorporated in General Education programs?

Here is LaGuardia’s page: https://eportfolio.laguardia.edu/

Sorry if I’m being redundant, but will the PPT be available online later? I jumped in a bit late

Yes. eportfolios "when done well" means reflection. My question was about the digital badge pathways to demonstrate intentional learning and the mastery of 21st century skills and competencies that ePortfolios can showcase.

So true!! Students need practice at articulating their skills/experience

mock interviews are a great way to express those skills.

what is salutary effect?

We are attempting to convert a couple of our Study USA (study away) courses into “experiential” virtual classes. Are there any resources or best practices for this type of student engaged course work?

Thank you, George!!

Thank you, George!

A HUGE THANK YOU GEORGE!

Thanks Dr. Kuh. Go Hoosiers!

If we missed your question, please email us at Community@StudentOpportunityCenter.com and we’ll get back with you.

U of South Florida has HIPs embedded in our gen ed. https://www.usf.edu/undergrad/general-education-council/gened-revision/proposed-program.aspx

Thank you Dr. Kuh!

Thank you George and Chris!

Thank you! This was helpful!

Thank you Dr. Kuh!

Thank you, Dr. Kuh!

Salutary effect is just a beneficial effect. Anything that helps improve results. Particularly remedial I think.

Thank you Dr. Kuh!! Great to see you! Appreciate all of your scholarship.

Thank you so much George Kuh, from Julie Soukup at Creighton University - also in the Midwest by Luther College :)

Thank you, this was a great presentation. Timely and filled with ideas.

Thank you George - it’s great to see you and hear you! Thank you SOC for hosting!

Thank you!

Thank you from Drew University!

So generous of you to share the PPT deck!

Thank you

Thank you for all the information!!

Terrific, thanks!

Thank you!

Thanks you!

Thank you all very much!

Thanks!
