And yes, I am gonna try to 🧵 this 😂
And yes, I am gonna try to 🧵 this 😂
Kicking us off, @FeleciaElana sets the context of the alternative/additional reality we will discuss today, both historical and contemporary #ASHE2021
How do we understand, foster, advocate for, and embody student success in this alternative reality? Our fabulous moderator @FeleciaElana kicking us off! #ASHE2021
This "new reality" is the "changing same" says Dr. Ray Black. In some ways, everything is the same but everything is a bit off. #ASHE2021
In many ways, the pandemic has exposed existing inequality and exacerbated it. At the same time, it has opened up possibilities for a new world. // @AutumnWilke #ASHE2021
How educators define success varies widely from how administrators and policymakers define success, creating an inherit tension but may cause us to shift our unit of analysis // @drdavidperezii #ASHE2021
We can debate how to define student success, but what we cannot do is rely on deficit-oriented notions of success // @drdavidperezii #ASHE2021
What do institutional definitions of success reveal about priorities, who counts as a student, finances, etc.? Institutional metrics of success do not develop in a vacuum // @AutumnWilke #ASHE2021
@FeleciaElana brings up the idea of holistic success, noting how students might graduate but they could feel torn down after their time in higher education - is that really success? #ASHE2021
It's not a matter of desire, but rather a lack of will that prevents HE institutions from really personalizing conceptions of success to students themselves // @FeleciaElana #ASHE2021
