THEORY TO PRACTICE
Identity Achievement Seen specifically in
“applying to graduate school” workshop
Students were making crucial choices that lead to making commitments
Choosing their own path
Confident in articulating their own goals
Basis of thoughtful, exploration “This is what I need to
do”
Multiplicity What students thought they
knew, they do not anymore Study habits, time
management, etc…
Authority may have pushed to the workshop
Authority may not have all the answers Find out for themselves how to
be successful
Progressing to independent thought
Thinking analytically about their own education and what it will take to be successful
