Advising Serves as a Bridge

Evolution of Advising
• From Prescriptive to Developmental
• Advising recognized as a teaching function
• Problem: Perception of advising as service;
perception of advising as a task, not a
relationship
– Tasks are delegated
– Advising tasks are less important than other
faculty responsibilities
– Advising is unrewarded & lacks meaning

Engagement
“The intersection of student
behaviors and institutional conditions
over which colleges and universities
have at least marginal control.”

Why They Matter(from Kuh, G.D., High Impact Educational Practices, 2008)
� They demand that students devote considerable
time and effort to purposeful tasks.
� They put students in circumstances that
demand they interact with faculty and peers
about substantive matters.
� They increase the likelihood that students will
experience diversity through contact with people
who are different from themselves.

� Students typically get frequent feedback about
their performance in every one of this activities.
� They provide opportunities for students to see
how what they are learning works in different
settings, on and off campus.
� Finally, it can be life changing to study abroad,
participate in service learning, conduct research
with a faculty member, or complete an
internship.

NACADA Concept Statement on Academic
Advising
“Academic advising engages students
beyond their own aspirations, while
acknowledging their characteristics,
values, and motivations as they enter,
move through, and exit the institution.”

“Academic advising is a multi-dimensional and intentional process, grounded in teaching and learning, with its own purpose, content, and
specified outcomes.”

Influencing Attitudes and Intentions
Good advising should link a student’s
academic capabilities with his or her choice of
courses and major, access to learning
resources, and a belief that the academic
pathway a student is traveling will lead to
employment after college.
Advising should be done well so students
recognize their abilities and make informed
choices.Bean, 2005

Influencing Attitudes and Intentions
Good advising contributes to academic
and social integration. This results from
positive experiences that increase:
� satisfaction with being a student at a given
institution
� confidence in one’s ability
� academic competence, and
� one’s understanding his/her educational,
career and life goals

Promoting Student Self-Authorship
Becoming self-authored requires
transformational learning that helps
students “learn to negotiate and act on
[their] own purposes, values, feelings,
and meanings rather than those [they]
have uncritically assimilated from
others”.
Mezirow, 2000
![Page 47: NACADA Executive Office Kansas State University Manhattan ... · Admissions Report Reflects a ... Martha Cooper, photographer Library of Congress Textile Winding Setter 40% reduction](https://reader034.vdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022043003/5f84d69d07f49821660b909a/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Magolda on Self-Authorship
“The shift to self-authorship occurs when students
encounter challenges that bring their assumptions
into question, have opportunities to reflect on their
assumptions, and are supported in reframing their
assumptions into more complex frames of
reference.
The role of the educator is to initiate conversation,
listen, and help students learn from their
experiences.”Magolda, 2007

Advising to Optimize the Student
Experience
1. Adopt a “Talent Development” Approach to
Advising
Know your students, meet students where they are
2. Make Advising a Tag Team Activity
Share responsibility, draw on many sources
3. Help Students Map Out a Path to Success
Teach campus culture, emphasize initiative, point to
programs that work

Advising to Optimize the Student

students

Questions
� How do you define student success? How do you
define retention? How does your campus define each
of these terms?
� The literature continues to support an important role for
academic advising in student success and retention. In
what ways is academic advising considered important
to your campus plan for student success and/or
retention? As an administrator, how might you add
support to or make the case for academic advising as a
strategic initiative for enhancing student success and/or
retention?

Questions
� Consider the students and the student experience(s) on
your campus. How would you describe the nature of
that/those experience(s) on your campus and how
might academic advising be utilized to strengthen
that/those experience(s)? What are your ideas for
action?
