the recently published results, employers rated the careerreadiness proficiency of new graduates lower, in some cases significantly, when compared tostudents’ self-ratings (NACE (a), 2018). Thus, a skills gap may exist.NACE defines career readiness as “the attainment and demonstration of requisite competenciesthat broadly prepare college graduates for a successful transition into the workplace” (NACE,2017). The aforementioned definition was created in 2015 through a task force including bothcollege and employer representatives. This definition provides a common language surroundingcareer readiness and allows for increased cooperation and collaboration between colleges anduniversities and employers.

for and importance of such connections to academicsuccess.Morrow and Ackerman found that 65% of students who leave their university depart for non-academic reasons and that academic progress and achievement are closely related to a sense ofbelonging [10]. Research has shown that one predictor of persistence in college is feeling asense of mattering and belonging [1], [37]. Commuter students are particularly at risk of notpersisting [1]. Mattering is defined as “the feeling one has when he/she feels that he/she isnoticed, cared about, needed, and valued by another person” [12] and the sense of belonging as“the perception of peer and faculty support, classroom comfort, and isolation [3], [11], [38]-[40].The challenge is how one goes about

By listening to the GTA’s suggestions to another groupregarding the teaming norms, the group is not only showing their uncertainty regarding thisaspect of the task, but also appealing to instructor authority for assistance. This manner ofworking on the task is the reason this episode was coded for Handout/Instructor Authority. Thelaughter and joking language used also suggest that the team does not value of this part of thetask, but are simply complying with instructor by filling out the worksheet (Worksheeting).When collaborative efforts of the group fail to resolve this confusion, the group members resortto independent work in order to complete this section.
