Lessons learned from returning second year technical students: A case study
Abstract
This qualitative case study explored how a theory could explain how outside contributors could influence a student’s decision to return for the second and final year of their academic career program. Using Holland’s person-environment fit theory as the theoretical lens, this study contemplates how specific contributors, such as family and friends, surroundings, and others contributors, could have an influence on the student’s overall well-being and career decisions. Finding suggest that the students personality summary code does align with their chosen academic career program. Also, certain outside influencers or contributors has an effect on their choosing an academic career program or career path.
