Flores, Sylvia L.; Flores, Luis A.; Harris, Crystal
International Society for Technology, Education, and Science, Paper presented at the International Conference on Social and Education Sciences (IConSES) (Austin, TX, Oct 13-16, 2022)
The Pandemic has affected the success rates among students in Higher Education. In general, Higher Education success rates are typically lower among minority groups. Considering the Pandemic effects in Hispanic Serving Institutions, this research study will focus on understanding the impact of the pandemic on currently enrolled undergraduate students in a Hispanic Serving Institutions and how technology may have played a role in their success. A qualitative approach will be used. Specifically, researchers interviewed 7 students whom were currently enrolled in a Hispanic Serving Institution in a Sociology class. The data will be analyzed using a grounded theory approach. Findings showed students saw technology as a contributing factor towards their success, the pandemic positively impacted their lives with the increase of flexible schedules, and males mentioned more barriers for success with high rates of struggling with anxiety. These data imply the need for a department focused on helping students succeed. Specifically, a department focused on providing all the resources needed by students in a Hispanic Serving Institution. These needs were amplified after the pandemic. [For the full proceedings, see ED631133.]
