- Professional networking Profile = dynamic resume Personalized Branding Customized URL e.g. /in/YourName Profile = dynamic resume “Contacts” = digital rolodex Recommendations => “Endorse Me” Integration = Twitter, Facebook, blog, SlideShare, websites, etc.
- Through Advisor Interaction, Influence & Integration we will see more connected learning.
- Discuss the role of advising in higher education - how it needs to change from common practice.
- Advising & Advisor Relationship - what is the role of our advisor? -Advising is a year-round -Not just an administrative function “paper pushers” -goes beyond course selection, GPA calculating, and providing codes -Transformational experiences -Socializes our students to take responsibility
- Advising as teaching; not a service. Rather than asking “how can I help you” it’s empowering the student to take responsibility as to “what brings you in today” - advising is not a mere service to direct students to where they can learn, as they should be learning WITHIN their advising experience. Socractic, developmental, or coaching in advising - so we need to equip our advisors with pedagogical skills to support these “learning” practices.
- Advising supervision & campus leaders needs to value the importance of these practical applications to value the role of the advisor with our learners: -academic certificate program (August 2013) is a great start -collaborative meetings in EAC and Undergraduate Advising Council -Do More? A regular ALL advisor network that gathers on a regular basis; connected advising resources for on-demand training; shared job-aids and modification to current advising practices that allow for more developmental advising experiences 1:1
- To assess the “value” or view of academic advising on campus, I consider: -how holistic advising models are in theory & application -student experience - input, interactions, and commentary -
- Image we “Required” students to complete academic advising for credit? Or what if our students were graded on their participation during our 1:1 advising appointments? -We model this in our First Year Seminars - e.g. Your EGN: 1002 - Intro to Engineering -Expectations vs. Reality for our learners - value grades & want feedback -Intentional and purposeful process; outline clear expectations -Defined “teaching loads” or ratio of advising populations; ratio of job expectations - freedom to “teach,” advise, create, research, develop projects and more
- Why wouldn’t we expect our advisors to be part of the continual assessment process? We have high stakes for retention & persistence in our programs - so all campus stakeholders need to be involved in: -Guiding our learners though an advising syllabus with SLOs/requirements -Facilitate reflective and authentic learning experiences -Self-evaluation of advising experience, student progress, and outcomes for program
- Utilize our advising staff/faculty for institutional challenges, development & growth: -leaders - lead within - task forces, committees, hiring, and contribute to decision-making -increasingly advisors are studying the issues around teaching & learning, curriculum committees, and student interaction throughout the degree progression -Seek out PD (#acadv chat), webinars, lectures, courses, degrees, and learning networks -Scholarly work demonstrated by publications, grants, presentations recognized on campus, NACADA, and other national and international domains -Learners success is attributed to advisor impact - why admissions brags, enrollment increases, and employers want to hire your undergraduate students

- A new view of what the academic advising position and role is for higher education: -Provides opportunities in career development, professional growth & the “calling” is bigger -CoP: problem solving, development of assests, seeking experience, synergy, development of projects, mapping knowledge & identifying gaps
- -Interdisciplinary scholarship development - presentations, pubs, research, grants, etc. -Problem-solving initiatives & development to solve larger issues in higher education -Collaborative work among scholars to encourage paradigm shifts -Contribute to the professional literature of advising knowledge
