The Impact of a Sense of Belonging in College

Implications for Student Persistence, Retention, and Success

Herausgeber: Bentrim, Erin; Henning, Gavin W.

Beschreibung

The editors noticed the lack of a consistent definition, or an overarching theoretical approach, as well as a struggle to connect disparate research. A compendium of research, applications, and approaches to sense of belonging did not exist, so they brought this book into being to serve as a single point of reference.
