Build Retention

The company I work for has a great thing called Hero Values. I believe our Hero Values here build retention.

Intervention

Intervention is done by asking the correct questions when the students are acting out. When a student acts out in a disruptive behavior sometimes it is a cry for help. Younger generation of students do not know how to handle issues that happen in the world so they find it easier to get attention by disrupting others. By asking the correct questions and willing to listen and give proper information to the student, the student will be in a better condition to continue with their education.

Understanding Attrition

One of my jobs here is to help identify troubled students. The student’s attendance rate is a great tool to use. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. The student’s attendance rate is a sign of troubled student’s. When I pull students from class we have time to discuss what his/her issues are so we can find an action plan to aid the student to keep them in class. Everybody has to remember that our students also have day to day issues just like everyone else.

Retention

Reading RT101 explains retention in a different form so many should have a different out look. Even though instructor’s number 1 objective is to educate the student we all have to remember that everyone including our selves has to deal with day to day living. Some people are mature enough to deal with day to day living. Our younger more impressionable students fresh out of high school my need couching to aid with being away from home for the first time.

Course content

The information student will receive in a course must be given to match all learning styles. Must of my students learn by demos or by letting the student do the demo. Technical learners like to keep their hands on what they are learning because that is their style.
