2. High Impact Educational Practices Using NSSE data, Kuh (2008) was able to show generally positive relationships between high-impact practices (HIPs) and student learning and achievement. Kuh recommended that every student ought to experience at least two HIPs. Kuh further noted that underrepresented students—such as first-generation college and URM students —are far less likely to participate in any HIPs.
