- Abstract
One out of every three students who begin an academic school year does not return for a second year, which has remained unchanged for the past 50 years. The Seven Principles for Good Practice in Undergraduate Education could improve the classroom learning environment, which could lead to increased student satisfaction and retention. More empirical work is needed to transform the theory of student persistence into practice within the classroom learning environment. The purpose of the current study was to validate the Revised Seven Components Student Inventory with a sample of students from a commuter institution. The inventory was found to be valid, convergent and discriminant, after five items were removed.
