What's the importance of equity within high impact educational experiences?
研究 has shown that certain activities make a big difference in student success post-graduation. 栏(2008) work on the critical importance of eng年龄d learning, also known as High Impact Practices, has shaped the undergraduate university experience. 然而,一个 2013年的报告 released by the Association of American 大学 and Universities (AAC&U) illuminated an educational disparity in many students’ access to the full college experience. The report found that underserved/underrepresented students had a lower participation rate in High Impact Practices in comparison to students who did not identify as underserved/underrepresented. The goal of this scholarship is to help close that gap.
