According to the AAC&U, the 11 high-impact practices are First-Year Seminars, Common Intellectual Experiences, Learning Communities, Writing-Intensive Courses, Collaborative Assignments and Projects, Undergraduate Research, Diversity/Global Learning, ePortfolios, Service learning/Community-Based Learning, Internships and Capstone Courses and Projects. Wellness Programs are also high-impact practices for U of A students and will be included in the project.
Video submission guidelines:
- All faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students are invited to submit videos.
- Create a video (3-10 minutes) showcasing a HIP, wellness and/or DEI initiative.
- Be sure to introduce yourself and your department and/or office.
