| Sumario: | The national conversation asking 'Are students college-ready?' concentrates on a variety of factors that are beyond higher education's control. This book flips the college readiness conversation to provide a new perspective on creating institutional value and facilitating student success. Instead of focusing on student preparedness for college (or lack thereof), this book asks what colleges and universities are doing to prepare for the students who are entering their institutions. What must change in an institution's policies, practices, and culture in order to be student-ready? This book outlines practical strategies for achieving ambitious student success goals. These ideas for redesigning practices and policies provide more than food for thought - they offer a real-world framework for institutional change. To truly become student-ready, educators must make difficult decisions, face the pressures of accountability, and address their preconceived notions about student success head-on.--adapted from publisher's description. |
