Instead, we must communicate what already exists to others. My role translates existing knowledge for effective use by practitioners: (1) Peer student study groups, (2) Learning assistance, (3) Learning technologies, (4) Equity programs, and (5) Universal Design for Learning. I used these within my college global history course and my work training others how to implement peer study programs such as Supplemental Instruction/PASS/PAL.

My Personal Mission: Increase college student success through the identification, validation, and dissemination of best practices in peer learning, classrooms, & student services.

Best education practices are activities, behaviors, and policies by students, faculty, staff, and administrators that result in positive changes in student attitudes and academic behaviors.
