Faculty Associates for Spring 2009

Dr. Adam Burke

Associate Professor, Health Education Department, and Director of the Institute for Holistic Healing Studies

Project Scope

Developing a Model Online Resource to Support Student Retention and Graduation

Dr. Burke's research involves the creation and testing of online elements for a dynamic new course: A Holistic Approach to Academic Success (HH200). The course, which Dr. Burke hopes will eventually be taught fully online, aims to encourage student retention and improve graduation rates by teaching and fostering those skills and qualities—both academic and personal—needed for enhanced student academic success and self-efficacy. Dr. Burke plans to share his online integrated model with the campus community, encouraging other faculty to incorporate both the technology and pedagogical techniques that can lead to improved student retention.
