Description

Student retention remains a critical challenge for further and higher education institutions, particularly in online learning environments where dropout rates frequently exceed those of traditional campus-based programmes. This book by Ormond Simpson addresses the growing recognition that institutions bear direct responsibility for supporting student completion and sustained participation. Simpson provides a clear, accessible analysis of effective retention strategies and their associated costs, offering practical insights for educators and administrators managing online courses. The work is part of the Open and Flexible Learning Series published by Routledge, establishing it as a key resource for understanding how institutions can improve student outcomes without compromising academic rigour or course quality.
