Book Description
Student wellbeing is foundational to academic success. One recent survey of postsecondary educators found that nearly 80 percent believed emotional wellbeing is a "very" or "extremely" important factor in student success. Studies have found the dropout rates for students with a diagnosed mental health problem range from 43 percent to as high as 86 percent. While dealing with stress is a normal part of life, for some students, stress can adversely affect their physical, emotional, and psychological health, particularly given that adolescence and early adulthood are when most mental illnesses are first manifested. In addition to students who may develop mental health challenges during their time in postsecondary education, many students arrive on campus with a mental health problem or having experienced significant trauma in their lives, which can also negatively affect physical, emotional, and psychological wellbeing. The nation's institutions of higher education are seeing increasing levels of mental illness, substance use and other forms of emotional distress among their students. Some of the problematic trends have been ongoing for decades. Some have been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and resulting economic consequences. Some are the result of long-festering systemic racism in almost every sphere of American life that are becoming more widely acknowledged throughout society and must, at last, be addressed. Mental Health, Substance Use, and Wellbeing in Higher Education lays out a variety of possible strategies and approaches to meet increasing demand for mental health and substance use services, based on the available evidence on the nature of the issues and what works in various situations. The recommendations of this report will support the delivery of mental health and wellness services by the nation's institutions of higher education.

Psychology in Education
Author: Sidney Leavitt PresseyPublisher: New York : Harper
ISBN:
Category : Educational psychology
Languages : en
Pages : 682
Book Description
This book is greatly changed from Psychology and the New Education (1944), by Mr. Pressey and Mr. Robinson-a revision of an earlier book (1933) by Mr. Pressey. Part I attempts a compact summary of our present knowledge regarding growth and development in the first twenty years of life. Part II, devoted to the guidance and fostering of the child's learning, emphasizes the social and emotional aspects of learning. Part III indicates how the teacher can better understand and help both himself and the individual child. By use of subject-matter that is at once diverse and exceedingly rich, the authors forcefully call attention to the interaction among pupil, home, school, and community, and point up the need for the teacher to see every child against the totality of his background. The emphasis throughout is upon the teacher's obligation to stimulate the development of the whole child in his total environment and to make the school an integrated part of community living where learning becomes the basis for social and emotional maturity.
