Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Strong academic advising has been found to be a key contributor to student persistence (Center for Public Education, 2012), and many are expected to play an advising role, including academic, career, and faculty advisors; counselors; tutors; and student affairs staff. Yet there is little training on how to do so. Various advising strategies exist, each of which has its own proponents. To serve increasingly complex higher education institutions around the world and their diverse student cohorts, academic advisors must understand multiple advising approaches and adroitly adapt them to their own student populations. Academic Advising Approaches outlines a wide variety of proven advising practices and strategies that help students master the necessary skills to achieve their academic and career goals. This book embeds theoretical bases within practical explanations and examples advisors can use in answering fundamental questions such as: What will make me a more effective advisor? What can I do to enhance student success? What conversations do I need to initiate with my colleagues to improve my unit, campus, and profession? Linking theory with practice, Academic Advising Approaches provides an accessible reference useful to all who serve in an advising role. Based upon accepted theories within the social sciences and humanities, the approaches covered include those incorporating developmental, learning-centered, appreciative, proactive, strengths-based, Socratic, and hermeneutic advising as well as those featuring advising as teaching, motivational interviewing, self-authorship, and advising as coaching. All advocate relationship-building as a means to encourage students to take charge of their own academic, personal, and professional progress. This book serves as the practice-based companion to Academic Advising: A Comprehensive Handbook, also from NACADA. Whereas the handbook addresses the concepts advisors and advising administrators need to know in order to build a success advising program, Academic Advising Approaches explains the delivery strategies successful advisors can use to help students make the most of their college experience.

Download or read book The New Advisor Guidebook written by Pat Folsom and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-08-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an exciting time to be an academic advisor—a time in which global recognition of the importance of advising is growing, research affirms the critical role advising plays in student success, and institutions of higher education increasingly view advising as integral to their missions and essential for improving the quality of students' educational experiences. It is essential that advisors provide knowledgeable, realistic counsel to the students in their charge. The New Advisor Guidebook helps advisors meet this challenge. The first and final chapters of the book identify the knowledge and skills advisors must master. These chapters present frameworks for setting and benchmarking self-development goals and for creating self-development plans. Each of the chapters in between focuses on foundational content: the basic terms, concepts, information, and skills advisors must learn in their first year and upon which they will build over the lengths of their careers. These chapters include strategies, questions, guidelines, examples, and case studies that give advisors the tools to apply this content in their work with students, from demonstrations of how student development theories might play out in advising sessions to questions advisors can ask to become aware of their biases and avoid making assumptions about students to a checklist for improving listening, interviewing, and referral skills. The book covers various ways in which advising is delivered: one-to-one, in groups, and online. The New Advisor Guidebook serves as an introduction to what advisors must know to do their jobs effectively. It pairs with Academic Advising Approaches: Strategies That Teach Students to Make the Most of College, also from NACADA, which presents the delivery strategies successful advisors can use to help students make the most of their college experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic advising is the second most important function in the community college. If it is not conducted with the utmost efficiency and effectiveness, the most important function in the college—instruction—will fail to achieve its purpose of ensuring that students succeed in navigating the curriculum to completion. The purpose of academic advising is to help students select a program of study to meet their life and vocational goals. As such, academic advising is a central and important activity in the process of education. Academic advising occurs at least once each term for every student in the college; few student support functions occur as often or affect so many students. But while there is general agreement concerning the importance of academic advising for the efficient functioning of the institution and the effective functioning of the student, there is little agreement regarding the nature of academic advising and who should perform the function. In this seminal work on academic advising, the authors of three overarching chapters address the key issues and challenges of academic advising followed by the authors of four of the most innovative and successful programs of academic advising in the nation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic advising on American college and university campuses has evolved into a professional activity supported by a growing body of theory and research. Developmental psychology provided the foundation for an approach to advising that emphasizes an holistic view of the student by supplementing traditional advising functions with career and personal counseling, decision-making strategies, and a personal relationship between the student and advisor. The majority of advising literature assumes that developmental advising can meet the needs of most students in every postsecondary setting. The purpose of this study was to discover whether this is the case for community college students. Subjects in two Pacific Northwest community colleges were surveyed using an instrument derived from Winston and Sandor's (1984c) Academic Advising Inventory. The instrument discriminated between prescriptive and developmental advising and measured the degree of satisfaction expressed by students in a variety of demographic categories. The study found that most students who received advising indicated that it was essentially developmental in nature and that they were generally satisfied. No significant differences were found in the style of advising (prescriptive or developmental) or in the level of satisfaction expressed by students in a variety of demographic variables. Significant differences were found both in the style of advising and in satisfaction based on the format or settings in which the advising took place. The highest level of satisfaction was associated with an assigned advisor in an advising center. Students who were advised by peers experienced the most developmental service, but they were a very small proportion (N=5) of the overall sample, causing the results on this dimension to be inconclusive. These results suggest that for community college students, the format of advising may be as important as the developmental or prescriptive style of advising. The finding that 29% of the study subjects received no advising underscores the issue of access and perceived need for advising. Of this group, minorities and students who were enrolled for less than six credits were not being advised at higher rates than other student groups.

Book excerpt: Published in partnership with NACADA: The Global Community for Academic Advising Academic advisors help students learn to make the most of their college years, not merely by completing requirements toward a degree but also by growing intellectually and developing all aspects of their identity. Yet, many professional and faculty advisors are new to academic advising and may feel ill-equipped to do more than help students register for classes. This new edited collection provides an overview of the theory and best practice undergirding advising today while exploring the transition challenges of a wide-range of first-year college students, including those attending two-year colleges, coming from underrepresented backgrounds, entering underprepared for college-level work, and/or experiencing academic failure.
