[SOLVED] Retention Theory Timeline
The study of student retention requires a foundational understanding of the theories and events that have driven practice. Equally important, however, is an understanding of the evolution of theory across time against the backdrop of the societal, political, legal, and environmental issues that have impacted higher education as a whole. You will create an annotated timeline spanning the last century of higher education, noting the formation and evolution of key student retention theories as well as the parallel historical events that shaped both theory and practice. There is no length requirement; however, the timeline must include a minimum of 10 annotated events and must be well researched and properly cited. A minimum of 5 scholarly sources (including your textbook) must be used. All citations and reference must be in current APA format. The timeline may be created in either Microsoft Word or PowerPoint, but it must be visually represented as a timeline with annotations ranging from 13 paragraphs in length. Each annotation should cover, at minimum, the following points: · Year of theory publication · Title of theory (formal or informal) · Credited theorist(s) · Concise explanation of theory (12 sentences) · Historical backdrop Example: See attached
