It's important to recognize when students are developing general adaptation syndrome and the tools the faculty can employ to best mitigate it.
Being authentic and interested in your student's potential is important. Recognizing cues from your student's when things are not right, not usual for student behavior. Being human and acknowledging this is also important.
This course is helping to remind and identify cues students are showing and how by paying attention to our students we can help them to cope with stress as a team. Thus, showing the student we care and helping to improve retention.
Ita improtant to learn about the General Adaptation Syndrome, and how that can show up in our students, and where we can intervene to help guide them in the best way possible.
I learned how to better identify the different stages of stress response and that while we all go through the stages, some are better equipped to cope with it. I also learned the importance of everyone at the institution contributing to show committment to students and encouragement. Postivity, demonstrating the importance of their chosen profession and helping students keep focus on the end goal can help in keeping students from making rash decisions.
I learned that most students go through the same phases. Some have better coping mechanisms than others. It's not just the instructors job to help the student. There is an entire team that can provide assistance.
I've learned that we all go through the general adaptation syndrome but others are able to cope with stress better than others. Providing resources to students could potentially help them cope with stressors better and allow for a less overwhelming adaptation syndrome.
Attrition and retention serve different purposes, but the crux of the relationship is that one makes way for the other. In order to promote retention within an organization, an employer might invest to create a corporate culture where employees grow and excel so that these individuals find little reason to leave. These efforts might begin with an informative and transparent orientation for new hires in an attempt to make employees feel knowledgeable about a corporation from day one. These efforts are all attempts to create retention.
I learn, I am responsable to encourage and reasure my students and to pay attentions for different stress signals from my students. I need to help them acomplish their dream of completing their education, by doing everithyn in class room to asure my students the best education.
It is everybody who is apart of the Institution that is responsible for retaining students is class. Reasure students that they are important and deserve to be in school.
