Abstract:
|
"Pre-registration advising appointments, sometimes the first extended interaction that advisors and advisees have, can leave both students and advisors frustrated. Students, especially first-year students, do not know what to expect, often coming unprepared, while advisors must balance time constraints with efforts to build connections and develop an action plan moving forward. The University Advising Center at UNC Charlotte, recognizing this less than ideal advising environment, developed an online, module-based, flipped-advising program that students complete prior to their pre-registration advising appointment. This concurrent session will showcase the creation, implementation, and benefits of this technological-based initiative housed in the university's learning management system and how it helped to allow for more productive, focused, and efficient advising appointments.
