Ed Map certainly thinks so! In a recent webinar series sponsored by Ed Map and Imagine America Foundation the important role of "community" and how it connects to higher education is highlighted. Session 2, Community as a Retention Tool, spotlights case studies from Community Care College, Oklahoma Technical College, and Clary Sage College, and how they are using community as a strong retention tool. Using old fashioned hand-written notes, providing online support groups, and taking a genuine human interest in the students, the schools have created a community that improves retention through establishing strong needs-based relationships. In a busy world where number identifiers are becoming increasingly popular, the human touch proves to be the key.
