Classroom Strategies to Support First-Gen Students

Did you know that 37% of undergraduate students at UC Davis are first-generation college students? In this workshop participants will understand who first-generation students are, the challenges they face, the strengths they bring to your learning space, and the strategies we might deploy to best support them in successfully navigating the university experience. You will reflect on your practices and learn how to apply the CARES Framework to support a growing demographic in education through access to resources and intentional dialogue.
