Advising“Advisors must look beyond comfort levels in technology and continually enhance individual skills to meet the needs of students today and in the future. Advisors need to look at how technologies enable them to enhance, not limit or weaken, the quality of the conversation with advisees” (Nutt, 2005).

Three Stages of Backwards Design
Understanding By Design by Grant Wiggins & Jay McTighe. Stage 1: Identify Desired Results
What students should know, understand, be able to do & be familiar with?
Stage 2: Determine Acceptable Evidence How will we know if students have achieved desired
results? Understanding? Proficiency?
Stage 3: Plan Learning Experiences & Instruction Develop appropriate instructional activities that address
knowledge and skills
