Yet there is little training on how to do so. Various advising strategies exist, each of which has its own proponents. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo serve increasingly complex higher education institutions around the world and their diverse student cohorts, academic advisors must understand multiple advising approaches and adroitly adapt them to their own student populations. \u003ci\u003eAcademic Advising Approaches\u003c\/i\u003e outlines a wide variety of proven advising practices and strategies that help students master the necessary skills to achieve their academic and career goals. This book embeds theoretical bases within practical explanations and examples advisors can use in answering fundamental questions such as: \u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat will make me a more effective advisor?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat can I do to enhance student success?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat conversations do I need to initiate with my colleagues to improve my unit, campus, and profession?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eLinking theory with practice, \u003ci\u003eAcademic Advising Approaches\u003c\/i\u003e provides an accessible reference useful to all who serve in an advising role. Based upon accepted theories within the social sciences and humanities, the approaches covered include those incorporating developmental, learning-centered, appreciative, proactive, strengths-based, Socratic, and hermeneutic advising as well as those featuring advising as teaching, motivational interviewing, self-authorship, and advising as coaching. All advocate relationship-building as a means to encourage students to take charge of their own academic, personal, and professional progress.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book serves as the practice-based companion to \u003ci\u003eAcademic Advising: A Comprehensive Handbook, \u003c\/i\u003e also from NACADA. Whereas the handbook addresses the concepts advisors and advising administrators need to know in order to build a success advising program, \u003ci\u003eAcademic Advising Approaches\u003c\/i\u003e explains the delivery strategies successful advisors can use to help students make the most of their college experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jayne K.
