Abstract:

Redesigning Dreams: Helping STEM Students See Their Future After Failure
So you've failed a class. You feel like your dreams are on the cusp of total demise. What do you do now? Students pursuing majors in STEM fields tend to react to failure strongly having tendencies towards perfection, high-achievement, and success. How do we as advisors help these students reframe their dreams when they feel like they are no longer within reach?
This session will reflect on the Discover, Dream, and Design phases of Appreciative Advising practices with the implementation of motivational interviewing and design theories to guide conversations with students who see a change in academic standing or struggles within their major coursework. We will share strategies and practices that have helped our unit find success in helping students continue pursuing their dreams. |
