What Matters Most: Video Reels and Resource Guides

In order to illustrate the “why” behind the “what” of the data and to remind colleges that the survey results represent real voices, CCCSE has conducted focus groups with countless students, faculty, and staff over the last two decades. Across myriad hours of focus group footage, participants at colleges across the country have consistently spoken to several themes around engagement and success. Below is a collection of curated video reels that illustrate these themes as well as resource guides that can be used to engage faculty and staff with the topics addressed in the video reels.
