Abstract
Participants will gain familiarity with High-Impact Practices (HIPs) and the features that make them effective; learn about recent research, equity gaps by student characteristics, and new National Survey of Student Engagement (NSSE) HIP reports; consider institutional approaches to assessing and ensuring equity; and apply lessons learned. HIPs, such as undergraduate research and service-learning, demonstrably enhance student engagement and success. Although research shows participation in HIPs benefits all students, especially those from historically underrepresented groups, not all students participate. This session will feature recent NSSE results on HIPs, highlight institutional approaches to assessing these structures, and illustrate how NSSE's new HIP reports and annual results can be used to optimize HIPs. Participants will discuss approaches to ensuring equity in participation, including setting expectations for new students, and models for student and academic affairs collaboration.
