Authorship & Agency: Exploring Coaching As A Tool For Student Success, Allison Rebecca Lake
Authorship & Agency: Exploring Coaching As A Tool For Student Success, Allison Rebecca Lake
Theses and Dissertations--Educational Policy Studies and Evaluation
Coaching has emerged as a new, innovative practice within higher education. However, we have only begun to understand the true impact of coaching for college students. Research from individual coaching programs has shown that students who participate in coaching sessions are more likely to be retained, have higher GPAs, and engage in self-regulated learning. However, little research has been done to explore coaching from the student perspective. We do not yet understand how students utilize coaching as a tool to optimize their student experience. The goal of this project was to explore how coaching impacts the student experience and to …

Generational Differences In Transfer Student Capital Among Community College Students, Michael J. Rosenberg
Theses and Dissertations--Educational Policy Studies and Evaluation

The more transfer student capital an individual accumulates, the more likely they are to be academically successful and persist to graduation.
This quantitative study examines whether a student’s age cohort may affect the transfer process from community college to a four-year school. The study …
Sex And Gender Identity: A New Perspective For College Student Development, Steven Ray Wise
Sex And Gender Identity: A New Perspective For College Student Development, Steven Ray Wise
Theses and Dissertations--Educational Policy Studies and Evaluation
One of the goals of college student development professionals is to help undergraduate students develop a meaningful sense of personal identity. Early in the history of the profession, practitioners borrowed freely from related fields such as sociology and psychology to guide their practice, but beginning around the 1960s, scholars began in earnest to develop their own unique body of literature. In this work I examine the development of that scholarly work as it relates to identity development—specifically the evolution of understanding around the issues of sex and gender identity development.
Beginning with William Perry, whose work has impacted so many …
