Notes de l'éditeur
- Before I get into those efforts, let me say a little bit more about IHEP As I mentioned earlier, IHEP is a non-profit, non-partisan organization focused on the postsecondary access and success of underserved populations. We approach all of our work with an underlying question: Will this help serve minority, first-generation, and low-income youth in access to and success in college and career? This approach means questioning at every turn how our research and programmatic work – work that I will share with you in a moment – ultimately have the potential to move the needle for these populations in a positive direction. As an organization, we learned early on that the best way to do this is to build networks and leverage our partners as a way of achieving our organizational mission. Audiences for our work include researchers, policymakers, and practitioners who are working to make change at the ground level. We share our work through research reports and studies, seminars and convenings, and network and capacity building efforts as an intermediary for various organizations.
- The resources that I will share with you today come out of our work with the Pathways to College Network, which is a program based at IHEP. The Pathways to College Network is an alliance of nearly 30 organizations working to advance college opportunity for underserved students. We do this by collaborating with our partners to raise public awareness, support innovative research, and promote what works across the K-12 and higher education sectors. The Pathways website, which I will share with you in a moment, hosts an array of online resources that were designed to support researchers, policymakers and practitioners in their efforts to increase college opportunities for all students The Pathways network also publishes an online e-newsletter, issue briefs, and research publications and participates in presentations like this one today. It discussing the Pathways Network today, it is important to stress the history of Pathways, which came from the idea of using evidence to inform practice and policy-encouraging research that is both rigorous and relevant-something practitioners can use

- As I mentioned earlier, the Pathways to College Network online resources can serve as a resource in your efforts The site hosts three online libraries and four online tools, many of which are managed by our Pathways partners, an example of how we leverage our partners resources The Pathways to College Network library can be used to access research, for example, on your program’s effectiveness. The tools can also be used to find data from your state to use as fodder to persuade potential partners of the urgency of the need to increase access and success for undeserved populations Strategies come out of our research at the Pathways to College Network, www.pathwaystocollege.net Focus on a specific issue with a measurable outcome Use PCN Online Library to search for research studies on the topic Identify concrete recommendations that could inform your work Always ask: Is it worth it? Reference what works Utilize data to demonstrate effective programs The Pathways Network provides access to nearly 30 Partners, who in turn provide access to numerous online resources on proven practices for student success Use research to demonstrate the effectiveness of your own program
- Walk participants through one or two examples of research to policy and outline the state and federal education policy climate today Use the creation of GEAR UP as an example Once in postsecondary, students were more likely to stay. Addresses leakage and transition between high school and college FAFSA is a barrier for students Students taking out more private loans – what is the effect on students and on institutions Canary in the coal mine; We need to do a better job of this Align practices with state- and federal- policy: consistency in the environment
