Let's talk about the strengths first-generation students bring to campus based on a research article and an ASHE research presentation.
Join me, Jen Schoen, as we challenge the deficit narrative and uncover the qualities that these students contribute to higher education. As part of First-Generation Student Celebration Week, I draw from two articles and the principles of positive psychology to spotlight the resilience, grit, and ambition that define these students. We’ll reveal how these college students' unique experiences and independence equip them for college success, even as we acknowledge the barriers they face without the parental guidance often available to their continuing-education peers.
Let's continue to reframe our understanding of student success through an asset lens as we discuss how first-generation college students’ strategic thinking and self-reliance are worth recognizing and celebrating. I'll conclude with two actionable insights to enhance support systems and foster an equitable learning environment. By the end of this episode, you’ll see how embracing these strengths can uplift the first-generation students and the student community. Let's celebrate their contributions and explore ways to empower the next generation—together.
