** Please sign in and update faculty paperwork **
Michael Smith, M.Ed. Dean of Academic Affairs
Student engagement
Attendance = Retention
Remember the goal… 100%
Simple equation to keeping students engaged from day 1:
Strong bond with:
1 Administrator + 1 Instructor + 1 Student = Engagement
“Social integration of students increases the probability of
academic and social success in the institution. If students are
engaged, they are more likely to feel a part of … the college
or university” (Spady, 1970).
Special Topic: The Pacific Institute (TPI)
Introduction to and Integration of
The Pacific Institute (“TPI”)
concepts and strategies
Attendance They want to be here!
Retention They want to stay here!
Engagement They enjoy it here!
Founded by Lou and Diane Tice in 1971, TPI has
developed a reputation for offering the most practical
and enlightening programs ever to come out of the
fields of cognitive and self-image psychology and
high-achiever research.
Guiding principles of TPI –
All individuals have an unlimited capacity for growth, change and creativity
Can adapt easily to change
Can become responsible for their own actions
Can regulate their behavior through a structured process that includes goal-setting, self-
reflection and self-evaluation
Can develop their potential by changing their habits, attitudes, beliefs and expectations
Results of TPI –
Individuals in an organizational setting achieve higher levels of growth and productivity
Shifting collective behavior from positive to negative and from poor performance to strong
performance
Leads to more constructive organizational cultures, and healthier, higher performing
workplaces, classrooms, colleges, etc.

Past Conditioning: A predisposition
to certain behaviors given previous
treatment.
Scotoma: A sensory "locking out" of
information around us; we often
develop these "blind spots" because
of our preconceived ideas, other
people’s preconceived ideas, and
past conditioning.
FINISHED FILES ARE THE RESULT OF YEARS OF
