Klappentext

In the Fourth Edition of this foundational volume, the editors and chapter contributors explore how diverse and underserved populations of higher education students experience college differently and encounter group-specific barriers to success. Informed by cutting edge theory and grounded practice, each chapter focuses on engaging a different student population, including Students of Color, international students, undocumented students, queer students, religious minority students, disabled students, low-income students, part-time students, graduate students, and others. The innovative and practical, anti-deficit-oriented strategies offered throughout the book are based on research and the collected professional wisdom of 50 experienced educators and scholars at a range of postsecondary institutions.

Newly revised in Student Engagement in Higher Education, 4th Edition, is a focus on the assets and strengths that students bring to college and university campus, new references and updates throughout to reflect the current climate in higher education, and three entirely new "Problems of Practice" chapters that explore complex campus dynamics and issues that many educators are navigating today. Current and future faculty members, higher education administrators, and student affairs educators will find this book complete with fresh and thoughtful ideas to address and reverse troubling engagement trends among various college student populations and provide guidance to foster student engagement that is transformative, equitable, and courageous.
