Type P
Place / Time_______ Harned Hall Rm: 110 Time: 8:30-9:20am
Session Title & Summary: “How Effective are Non-Traditional Graduates of a Special Education Teacher Credential Program” - Our presentation describes student learning outcomes for nontraditional special education teacher credential candidates and alumni. Outcomes include application of skills in classroom settings, basic writing skills, reflection, and subject matter expertise. Findings indicate the faculty and employees of alumni rate alumni skills more highly than alumni rate themselves. It seem nontraditional students may be more self-critical and have higher expectations for themselves than traditional students, employer and faculty.

Place / Time_______ Harned Hall Rm: 210 Time: 9:30 – 10:20am
Session Title & Summary: “Laughing Out Loud: Reaching the summit to good health” - Non-Traditional students have a lot of stress in their lives. There is the stress of school and the stress of family obligations. There is the stress of the job not to mention compromise, sacrifices and expectations. This workshop will explore alternative methods of reducing stress in the adult learners life and look at how positive emotions and laughter can help you reach the summit of good health. Corny? Perhaps, but lots of laughs!

Place / Time_______ Harned Hall Rm: 115 Time: 8:30 – 9:20am Session Title & Summary: “Reaching the Summit of Member Recruitment and Retention” - Students often have very specific reasons for joining groups. As officers, if we understand what drives students to join our group in the first place, we can use that information to tailor recruiting efforts. Once we understand what our members are expecting/hoping to get out of membership, we can then tailor group activities to encourage them to continue participating in ways that are meaningful to them. There will be opportunities to share "best practice" and to brainstorm new ideas throughout the presentation in order to facilitate cooperative learning. 4.

part of that community.

Non-traditional students like distance learning because it can save them time, travel, and money. It also allows them to continue their degree in times of illness, financial difficulty, or other situations where attending a class face to face is problematic. While distance learning offers great advantages for non-traditional students, there are considerations that must be examined by faculty, staff, and students alike. We have taught English and math in various online versions (mostly using Blackboard as a platform), and have worked with our developmental students to develop the skills and habits necessary for them to achieve success in DL classes. This presentation will offer background information about distance learning, current national statistics, and practical suggestions for facilitators and learners in DL settings.

Representing Saint Martin’s University
Type P
Place / Time_______ Harned Rm: 117 Time: 2:00 – 2:50pm
Session Title & Summary: “Non-traditional students: Expanding The Concept of Multiculturalism For College Campuses” - Many college campuses today include race, ethnicity, gender, and sexual orientation, among others, as critical areas for student support. While there are support services for non-traditional students, many campuses do not fit them within the multicultural paradigm. In this presentation we consider the question whether non-traditional status could be a viable identity to include in multicultural/diversity services. To consider this question, the presentation will begin with a basic theoretical approach to understand college inclusion and engagement. Once presented, participants will engage in fruitful dialogue about the role multicultural affairs might play in serving and supporting non-traditional students.

My Fellow ANTSHE Members,
I want to thank everyone for their support and vote of confidence by electing me to a second term. I am humbled by the opportunity to lead ANTSHE for another 2 years. My service to this great organization has been extremely regarding I look forward to an even more productive years as we continue to move forward. Your Board of Directors has been hard at work on your behalf all year. We have streamlined many administrative processes, worked to provided more support to on campus organizations, and in general continued to be a lightning rod for focused support to Nontrad organizations around the country. Through a concerted effort by this board ANTSHE awareness and public recognition is on the rise. We are in negotiation with a webinar hosting company to develop ANTSHE Webinars featuring some of our expert members, collaborating with book publishers to develop a series of ANTSHE books including “The Nontrad Cook Book; Meals in Under 10 Minutes or less!” We are actively seeking funding and have contracted with a grant writer to formalize the process. I am confident these programs and more will continue the trend of expanding ANTSHE’s footprint. I welcome everyone to Saint Martin’s University for our 12th Annual Conference and hope to find time to meet with as many members as possible. I am very interested in hearing about all the great things members are involved in on your campus, and our conference is a perfect place to share with each other. I encourage you to meet people and introduce yourself to those you do not know. We are all members of the extended ANTSHE family so take time to share with your fellow member. I look forward to the challenges of the next 2 years and look forward to working with all of you. I am optimistic about the endless possibilities for the growth of ANTSHE! As we move forward this year let us never forget our mission to encourage and coordinate support, education and advocacy for all adult learners! Thank you again for your continued support,
