Professor’s eyes only… You may be surprised to learn… …that over 25% of all undergraduate students do not utilize their required course material. …student retention is dropping nationwide and while the higher education community has done a remarkable job of opening the doors of college to more and more students, we have not seen equal strides in the number of students who actually complete four-year degrees. (Education Trust, 2004) See the next slide on what you can do… Professor: Course/Section:

Professor’s eyes only… What you can do… The top factors motivating a student to use their adopted books all involve whether the material is immediately used, referred to, or assessed from in the classroom. Please take a few minutes the first day of class to explain and demonstrate why you adopted your book and accompanying technology. The next few slides show the book, technology products, and messaging to students that indicates they will be responsible for the content. Feel free to customize the information or delete from your slide set. Professor: Course/Section:
