Abstract:
|
Everyone has a story, but how often do we recognize and honor the stories we hear in higher education? Holding intentional conversations with students about their personal journey provides each student with a richer advising experience and fosters a sense of trust with the advisor they work with. This session seeks to introduce three strategies academic advisors can incorporate in formal and informal contexts to dive deeper into students' lived experiences and highlight the value of listening to students' personal stories. Attendees will be invited to share their personal journeys with one another in interactive dialogue, exercising these strategies. This presentation aims to develop the active listening skills of academic advisors who serve diverse student populations. Are you ready to be a part of the next chapter in your students' stories? |
