Universities need to be nimble in curriculum and think much more holistically about preparation for work. #highered #finishcollege https://t.co/QRjbjyAaCj

And as alternatives to #college go, apprenticeships are appealing because they generally lock-in #jobs upon completion and, instead of students paying to learn, apprenticeships usually pay as well as cover the cost of part-time schooling. #highered https://t.co/ZZ5rC0Zr13

If they are going to have the work force they need for the #economy they desire, they're going to have to increase postsecondary #degree attainment for some-college, no-degree students or adults who have no #college education. #finishcollege #highered https://t.co/H8fY0NnOQo

Talent is distributed uniformly across society. There's no data to suggest that if you happen to be born into a less well-to-do family you are somehow less intelligent. The challenge is to recruit them and make it financially viable for them. #highered https://t.co/lyypVpC4MH

The good news is that millions more Americans have achieved this milestone over the last decade and that Latino young adults are making impressive strides to close the gap with their white peers. But these accomplishments are still not enough. #highered https://t.co/rb4nR1FSik

Any school that is not significantly re-orienting all their teaching practices to align with the research on learning -- and in particular is not prioritizing active and experiential learning -- is committing education malpractice. #edchat #highered https://t.co/wCHbYHNfrz

There’s a fundamental tension between the broad social good of fostering a more and better educated population, and pitting colleges against each other. #edchat #highered https://t.co/plenWdyrwY

Some #online programs are incorporating elements of the brick-and-mortar model—just as online retailers such as Warby Parker use relatively small physical outlets to spark sales on websites and increase customer loyalty. #highered #edchat #finishcollege https://t.co/Dr2CheWbor

On many #campuses, teaching introductory courses typically falls to less-experienced instructors. A growing body of evidence suggests that this tension could have negative consequences for #students. #highered #edchat https://t.co/wOhsGJTWnY

Forming strong partnerships between postsecondary institutions, K-12 schools and #employers, and reimagining the credentialing environment to allow for more diversity, is critical to shrinking the talent gap & driving economic growth. #highered #edchat https://t.co/7Fpq9nvgCY

When adult ed says “no excuses” it means removing the barriers that might prevent an #adultlearner from finishing their #education such as a need for child care or a need to work. #finishcollege #edchat #highered https://t.co/FpNm9s9Gl4

Building #student confidence begins with the school's readiness to answer questions and to provide support for the #online learning process. #highered #edtech #edchat https://t.co/7RedLn5vDv
