Download or read book Student Organization Advising and Its Impact on Individual Student Leaders Student Organizations and Student Organization Advisors written by Jennifer Grossman Leopard and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this study was to examine the contributions student organization advisors make towards successful student organizations. The current research on student organization advising mainly consists of guidebooks or articles on specific types of student organization advising. Any current resources that are available are mainly grounded in anecdotal experiences, providing advisors with little guidance supported with empirical evidence.This study used a multi-case study research design focused on student organization advisors and student leaders from organizations recognized by a large, public, four-year, primarily residential, high research activity university. The advisors were chosen from a purposive sample of advisors who attended advisor workshops provided by the student affairs division. Highly structured interviews, observations, and document analysis were used for data collection. The results of this research confirmed findings from the current student organization advising literature that there are a variety of advisor approaches and roles and the fact that the student-advisor relationship can directly impact individual student development. This study also deepened the understanding of student organization advising. The findings show the various ways advisors impact individual student leaders through developing open-relationships and knowledge, skills and life strategies. The research also exhibited how advisors impact organizations through the various roles they fulfill. Finally, the study demonstrated that the act of advising a student organization impacts the advisor, as well. Advisors were impacted in that they found themselves setting and navigating personal and professional boundaries and determining when and when not to intervene. These results can be used to better inform and prepare advisors to help an organizations continued success.

Download or read book The Faculty Advisor written by Ronald Michael Lunk and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faculty serve in a variety of capacities within the university. One of the roles commonly held by faculty members is to engage with students through advising. Likewise, since the founding of the higher education system in the United States, student organizations play an integral part in the student experience on college campuses. Although faculty play an integral role with student organizations, and student organizations comprise an important part of the higher education landscape, no advising theories surrounding student organization advising currently exist. Borrowing from academic advising literature and associated theories as a guide, two types of advising, prescriptive and developmental, may provide an initial starting point for better understanding student organization advising practices. Developmental advising first appeared in 1972 by Crookston and was later elaborated on by O'Banion (1972). In 1982, Winston and Sandor developed an instrument to measure academic advising titled the Academic Advising Inventory (AAI), which determined, on a scale, whether the advisor's approach to advising presented as more prescriptive or developmental. This study used a modified Academic Advising Inventory, the Student Organization Advising Inventory, a 55-question survey including 14 demographic-type questions that provided insight into advising preference, common advising activities, and relationships between the style of advising and the advisors' demographics. The inventory was sent via Qualtrics email to 279 faculty advisors to student organizations at a large public university. Of those who received the survey, 74 (26.5%) advisors completed it. The study found that the participants preferred developmental advising techniques and that the most reported activities reported were discussing organization business such as meeting/programming topics, getting to know each other, signing forms, identifying other campus offices that can provide assistance, discussing extracurricular activities, discussing college policies, discussing officer succession, talking about what you are doing besides taking classes, and discussing bylaws or constitution requirements. The comparison between the advising style and each of the three demographic indicators did not yield a statistically significant relationship. There was no evidence of a relationship between the preferred advising style and sex, time at institution, or type of organization advised. Implications for practice include training, recruitment, and advising approach.
Download or read book The New Advisor Guidebook written by Pat Folsom and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-09-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is an exciting time to be an academic advisor—a time in which global recognition of the importance of advising is growing, research affirms the critical role advising plays in student success, and institutions of higher education increasingly view advising as integral to their missions and essential for improving the quality of students' educational experiences. It is essential that advisors provide knowledgeable, realistic counsel to the students in their charge. The New Advisor Guidebook helps advisors meet this challenge. The first and final chapters of the book identify the knowledge and skills advisors must master. These chapters present frameworks for setting and benchmarking self-development goals and for creating self-development plans. Each of the chapters in between focuses on foundational content: the basic terms, concepts, information, and skills advisors must learn in their first year and upon which they will build over the lengths of their careers. These chapters include strategies, questions, guidelines, examples, and case studies that give advisors the tools to apply this content in their work with students, from demonstrations of how student development theories might play out in advising sessions to questions advisors can ask to become aware of their biases and avoid making assumptions about students to a checklist for improving listening, interviewing, and referral skills. The book covers various ways in which advising is delivered: one-to-one, in groups, and online. The New Advisor Guidebook serves as an introduction to what advisors must know to do their jobs effectively. It pairs with Academic Advising Approaches: Strategies That Teach Students to Make the Most of College, also from NACADA, which presents the delivery strategies successful advisors can use to help students make the most of their college experience.
