Resiliency Matters: Measure It, Nurture It, and Help Your Students Thrive

Increased resiliency among students leads to improved attendance, behavior, grades, and graduation rates. In fact, among matched groups of students, research shows that resiliency is the key factor in determining why one group succeeds academically while the other does not. But, how do you measure it, and more important, how do you apply resiliency to improve student outcomes.

In this webinar, Boston University Professor V. Scott Solberg will share how you can measure the six resiliency skills – valuing education, health and well-being, connectedness, academic confidence, stress management, and intrinsic motivation – and how you can easily incorporate these skills as part of your existing instructional or counseling practices. This webinar is a great opportunity, whether you are just learning about resiliency or have questions about your latest resiliency data from ScholarCentric by Intellispark.

Prof. Solberg is a noted expert on resiliency. He developed the ScholarCentric resiliency program, which the National Dropout Prevention Center found to have “significant evidence of effectiveness.”
