Overview

Learner and faculty engagement has become a critical focus in the evolving landscape of higher education, especially in the wake of technological advancements, declining enrollments, and shifting student demographics. Understanding functions across various modalities is essential for ensuring educational effectiveness and equity. As institutions increasingly serve adult learners and nontraditional students, innovative strategies and policies are needed to support meaningful participation and persistence. Exploring engagement across diverse learning environments not only informs instructional practice but also guides institutional planning and policy development. Developing Student Engagement Opportunities in Higher Education offers new models for engagement of students, faculty, and administrators. It provides information for policies and program implementation, and reviews instructional strategies for learner engagement. Covering topics such as adult learners, general education, and youth development, this book is an excellent resource for graduate students, administrators, librarians, career counselors, faculty, researchers, academicians, and more.
