Incorporating Student Identity, Purpose, and Belonging in the Classroom

When: March 22, 2022, 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Presenter(s): Sarah-Elizabeth Byosiere (Psychology); Marcia Liu (HCAP and AASP); Paul McPherron (English); Aiesha Turman (English), Hossannah Asuncion (English, BMCC)


Research has demonstrated the powerful connection between positive student outcomes (e.g. GPA, retention, and graduation times) and college teaching activities that connect to students’ identities, race, and purpose. In this seminar, we will hear from recent participants of the HCAP Faculty Seminar Series, a series where instructors developed teaching innovations (e.g. class activity, assignment/project, teaching tool, etc) that help students develop a positive sense of their own identities, the internal motivation to complete college, and a greater sense of feeling that they belong to a community as a college student.
