Lucille Leung; Sarah Lyman Kravits
Learning Assistance Review, v28 n3 p67-102 2024
The Back on Track Support Group is a four-to-six-week academic coaching initiative at Rutgers University-New Brunswick developed specifically to improve academic resilience in students who have self-identified as struggling academically. To measure out comes after participating in the process, the Academic Resilience Scale-30 (ARS-30) was chosen to be administered to participating students at the beginning and end of the intervention. The research found that students' academic resilience, overall academic performance, and self-perceived sense of community increased following weekly participation in the Back on Track Support Group.
