With little in terms of resourceseither financial, professional development, or institutional supportschairs are often overwhelmed by the task. This workshop will cover how student success can be improved by leveraging active and adaptive learning in critical first experience courses. Based on years of grant work, we know that teaching matters. We also know that students need guidance and supports to effectively study and practice course materials. These key components are typically most successful when implemented together and when aligned across faculty and instruc-tors. Learning from multiple case studies, attendees will gain insight on how to collaborate with faculty to effectively implement and scale these strategies across sections.
