Abstract:
|
"Although matriculating to college is more achievable than ever for individuals with Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder, these students still face serious difficulties during their undergraduate careers. Many students struggle with feelings of shame, a lack of confidence, and are more likely to experience academic probation and dismissal than their non-ADHD peers. As academic advisors, how can we best support this burgeoning group of students? This interactive session will provide an introductory overview of ADHD in college students from which both new and experienced advisors can benefit. Best advising practices will also be discussed with an emphasis placed on academic coaching. Please join us to help craft a narrative of support and success for our ADHD students.
