Higher education in the United States is facing a critical juncture. Tuition costs are rising, while measures of success are declining. Students struggle to meet the most basic academic requirements, barely passing their courses, while others battle physical and mental health difficulties that profoundly impact their ability to do well in college. This book responds to these challenges, offering a holistic collection of practices to guide those working with emerging adults in higher education.
Beginning with an introduction to the developmental period of emerging adulthood, the volume examines how the social and emotional development of emerging adults is relevant to struggles and successes in higher education. Subsequent chapters focus on how technology has impacted on learning and communication for today's students and how faculty and staff can best work with students through meaningful relationships. Consisting of chapters from experts in a variety of disciplines, the volume provides faculty, administrators, and staff with the knowledge and skills needed to help today's students succeed.

Tisha A. Duncan has extensive experience in coaching and supporting educators in the implementation of effective teaching practices in a variety of content areas. Her areas of specialty at both the undergraduate and graduate levels are curriculum and instruction, technology integration, and differentiation. Recent research interests include learner-centered instruction, collaboration, and emerging adulthood. With over 20 years in the field of education, she has been blessed with the opportunity to work with persons of diverse backgrounds and all ages, from birth through adulthood. Allison A. Buskirk-Cohen is an educator, scholar, and leader in higher education with experience developing educational programs and resources aimed at supporting student success. Her research focuses on how interpersonal relationships influence wellbeing, and has demonstrated how powerful the need to connect with others is, particularly within education. She also has served as editor of the textbook, Taking Sides: Clashing Views in Life-Span Development.
