Student Success in Higher Education: Developing the Whole Person through High Impact Practices provides front-line educators with a new student success model based on the latest research in the psychology of well-being and student-centered learning.
This model integrates five critical student success functional areas-academic advising, career services, counseling and psychological services, faculty teaching, and student engagement-and helps colleges and universities develop psychologically healthy and self-aware students as a part of their educational mission.
Drawing upon over 30 years of professional experiences as higher education leaders, teachers, and counselors, the authors have developed the Integrated Student Success Model (iSuccess), a visionary and comprehensive approach to student success through well-being and self-knowledge.
The model provides three research-based, high-impact practices that empower students to create their own pathways to success in college and in life:
• Integrated Self Model (iSelf) - a framework to understand the whole person through self-system and positive psychology attributes
• Self Across the Curriculum (SAC) - a pedagogy to teach self-knowledge through curricula
• Success Predictor (SP) - a student success assessment instrument and intervention tool
When the self becomes the lens through which students learn, students can balance cognitive with non-cognitive factors to become happy and whole people who are equipped to create a positive life and make contributions toward a better society.
