High Impact Practices
High Impact Practices (or HIPs) are a collection of strategies for teaching and learning that are supported through research linking them to increased retention, completion, and satisfaction rates of students. When done well, HIPs provide intentional and integrative approaches for learning that encourage transference of skills and the creation of meaningful connections between experiences (Watson, Kuh, Rhodes, Penny Light, & Chen, 2016).
The list below was initially curated by the Association of American Colleges & Universities, and has since been reviewed annually by the National Survey of Student Engagement.
