Dual enrollment programs give high school students a head start on college, but unclear credit transfer can create hidden hurdles. @InsideHigherEd shares how we can bridge these gaps to ensure student success. #BeyondTransferinsidehighered.com/opinion/c…
Please see my newest @insidehighered blog post (about the articulation agreements that IHEs make to try to facilitate students' credit transfer) & about alternative credit transfer strategies: "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" bit.ly/3DaQHcF#highered#BeyondTransfer
This @insidehighered#beyondtransfer blog post shows inaccuracy of some people's beliefs that accreditors inhibit transfer success: bit.ly/3A9xfvH But will accreditors require IHEs to show, not just good policies, but actual good transfer practice? @mscheorg#HigherEd
Calculating student success metrics with all students, as well as for transfer students, and making that information public can provide valuable information for students considering enrollment, but also for institutions. insidehighered.com/opinion/b…#beyondtransfer@MadJoyTrimble
This excellent blog post describes some of the many ways in which data on student transfer can help #highered find out how transfer is going well & how it isn't, paving the way for taking specific steps for improvement: bit.ly/4bLZZrj#beyondtransfer@CUNY@IthakaSR
“There's a reason we refer to transfer admission staff as specialists. In addition to traditional admission skills used in recruiting, transfer professionals must have an array of knowledge and gifts to be effective in their position." #BeyondTransferow.ly/kjnz50RaAyP
The people at @sova have always had an unusual, deep understanding of the challenges to smooth transfer & how to meet those challenges. We're so fortunate that they're continuing the #BeyondTransfer blog into a third year! bit.ly/3HydKNI@AlisonKadlec@LaraKCouturier
This #BeyondTransfer blog post explains beautifully need for a common definition of what we mean by word "credential." We need to use same words for this, meaning same things, for students' learning to be mobile with them: bit.ly/41r1CqP@AACRAO#HigherEd @QBG_Connect
IHEs often don't trust the transcripts provided by other IHEs enough to give students transfer credits based on those transcripts alone. Having learner records based on competencies acquired could help change that: bit.ly/46ax2mS#HigherEd@AACRAO#beyondtransfer
Should associate students who want bachelors stay in associate until getting degree or transfer sooner to bachelors? Answer differs for different students & may not match faculty/IHE incentives. Read my @insidehighered post: bit.ly/44MUiWI#HigherEd#beyondtransfer
