Abstract:
|
Motivational Interviewing (MI) was developed in the 1990's as a way to empower people to make positive changes in their lives by exploring and developing intrinsic motivation (Miller & Rollnick, 2002). Although it was first practiced within the field of psychotherapy, MI has been adopted by many other helping professions including academic advising. The practice of MI can be directly applied to the work advisors do with students, from their first quarter to their last, and at many points in between. However, training dedicated to MI as it relates to academic advising is limited. The goal of this session is to develop stronger connections between Motivational Interviewing, advising, and student development theories and to provide a space to practice MI skills. |
