摘要：This is a theoretical document for the consideration of how we can enhance overall students’ academic and overall wellbeing. Because first-year students’ transition into higher education is particularly important for their remaining time at higher education, and to diminish their risk of attrition after their first year, this group will be particularly focused on. However, a focus on the “whole student” is important for all their time at university in the whole world. Also, considering the recently enhanced legal educational requirements with regards to overall student wellbeing for New Zealand tertiary institutions, there is for them an even more clear rationale for NZ tertiary institutions to focus on this topic. This article is aimed at advocating for an increased focus on the whole student development, drawing on much of our research so far, as well as research from across the world.
