Engaging Students for Success

In this week’s media segment, a panel that includes faculty, staff, and students discusses “conditions that matter” at Cal StateMonterey Bay (a DEEP school described in this week’s book excerpt). The passage below describes a student named Maria who exhibits several of the risk-attributes mentioned in Week 1. Maria is working full-time, financially independent, and a single parent. She has lofty goals, but limited time and energy for school.

Maria is carrying a 15-credit course load at CSU-MB along with working full-time at Subway to support herself and her 3-year-old son. She is struggling to reach her goal of attaining a bachelor’s degree and finding a job in retail management. Her manager at Subway frequently assigns her overtime work, and her son requires special care. Maria often arrives home late from school, bone-tired, wondering if it is all worth it. She often feels that taking a break from school would relieve much of her stress.

Based on the media segment and your readings, what kinds of educational practices are most likely to “engage” Maria?
