Abstract:
|
How do you design an intervention for students on academic warning or probation that balances the punitive and the positive? Can you provide the necessary policy information while also keeping the students engaged? Using an empowerment/motivational model we created a workshop and one-credit course where struggling students can identify their strengths, review their priorities and set goals for future success. This presentation will review the research that underpins the program, and explain the structures in place for implementation, assessment and the evolution of the program. The presenters will encourage audience participation through demonstrations of exercises from the workshop and course as well as discussion of concrete ideas for how advisors can implement similar programs on their own campuses. |
