Message from Dr. Belinda S. Miles: Student Reflections
December 8, 2017
Colleagues,
In a break from my regular update, we return to sharing a reading this week. Commentary in the Chronicle of Higher Education focused on a question similar to the one we’ve asked our students: “What do you wish the college knew about you?” In this twist, a community college associate professor reflects on what her students wanted her to know about being in developmental English. The responses she received remind us of the widely varied experiences students bring to college. It also gives voice to how students perceive their interactions with us and how they seek individual attention.
Here’s the link: https://www.chronicle.com/article/Commentary-What-My-Struggling/241486
I’m interested in your reactions to this article.
Enjoy the weekend.
Dr. Belinda S. Miles
President
