High-Impact Educational Practices That Matter

Dr. George D. Kuh is the author of High-Impact Educational Practices: What They Are, Who Has Access To Them, and Why They Matter, a report from AAC&U’s Liberal Education and America’s Promise (LEAP) initiative. This report summarizes data drawn from the National Survey of Student Engagement and discusses why decades of research show that participating in certain educational practices correlates with higher levels of student performance.More information on the 10 High-Impact Educational Practices can be found on AAC&U's website. You can also read excerpts from George Kuh’s interview in Declining by Degrees: Higher Education at Risk.
