These resources are typically available through an Advocacy Resource Center; however\, possibly due to a low sense of student belonging only a small number of students use these services. Having a low sense of belonging makes students less likely to talk with their instructor and seek out these resources\, which decreases their ability to succeed. Building strong student/instructor relationships through the Pedagogy of Real Talk helps create a sense of belonging and increases communication with their instructor about resources early in the semester. \n\n\n\nParticipants will discover how incorporating the Pedagogy of Real Talk into their classes builds strong relationships with their students through common dialogs and shared experiences. We will also explore how these relationships lead to higher engagement with materials through the use of Alternative Lessons focused on peaking students’ interests and increasing retention. \n\n\n\nPresenter: Dr. Jacob Price\, Assistant Professor of Biological Sciences\, Amarillo College URL:https://www.trellisstrategies.org/event/connecting-engaging-and-increasing-retention-through-the-pedagogy-of-real-talk/ LOCATION:Texas ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/webp:https://www.trellisstrategies.org/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/trellis-strategies_webinar-college-retention.webp END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20231012T090000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20231012T103000 DTSTAMP:20260406T090335 CREATED:20231012T084800Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250406T184007Z UID:10000020-1697101200-1697106600@www.trellisstrategies.org SUMMARY:360 Discussion: Who Pauses Their Education and Why DESCRIPTION:Barriers to Completion: Why Individuals Pause Their Education \n\n\n\nData Conversation: Who Pauses Their Education and Why? \n\n\n\nTrellis 360 showcases thought leaders throughout the postsecondary education sector\, sharing their expertise about the value of higher education in today’s world.
