<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">February is DISCOVER PHASE Month of UAAC’s Appreciative Advising
Challenge.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">The Discover
phase is when advisors work with students to discover their unique stories and
help them recognize their <b>strengths</b>, <b>skills</b> and <b>goals</b>. “By
utilizing positive, open-ended questions they can extract narratives through
which they can help students identify their strengths, passions, and skills.” <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

are some of your favorite open-ended questions you use to discover a student’s
story? Please share your
questions and the contexts in which you use them (e.g. during a second-year MAP
appointment) by emailing lpark@uc.utah.edu.
We are looking for interesting and creative ideas to share with UAAC at the March 19 <span style="color: #f3f3f3;">meeting</span><span style="color: black; font-size: 12pt;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">.<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></span></div>

Lisa Shaw—one of the subcommittee members—first meets a student, she asks: What
brought you to the department? What are you most interested in gaining from
this major? Where do you see yourself headed from here? “Once I get them
talking about what they want from us, I can usually find out what we can do for
them,” she says.</span> <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">Having current students and the activities that they are involved
in is one of ways that the CFA attempts to both support our students and disarm
them. I think that when students see their work or peers and sometimes
themselves engaged at the institution it can be really inviting. It sends the
message that we value the work that they are doing and their efforts. We also
share student stories through our blog the CFA Finer Points – the feed is on
our main page finearts.utah.edu<o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>

<span style="color: black; font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">I think some the suggestions about disarming from the class that I
am taking that might be good to share are: <o:p></o:p></span></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;">
</span><br />
<ul type="disc"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">

prepare for a student meeting, I will take a minute to read through the
PeopleSoft notes to remind myself if I have met with the student before
and/or a little bit about the student. Even if I do not remember the
student from the notes that I have written I feel it is important for the
student to know that I am glad that she or he is coming in again. I
purposefully greet them by saying “it is good to see you again.”</span></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="color: black; margin: 0in 0in 0pt; mso-list: l0 level1 lfo1; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; tab-stops: list .5in;"><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"></span><span style="font-size: 10.5pt; mso-fareast-font-family: "Times New Roman";"><span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">I try to clean off my
desk of projects that I am working on before I have a student appointment.
This way neither the student or I are distracted by piles of paper or
things to look at. I think this leads to my ability to focus on the
student.</span> <o:p></o:p></span></span></li>

the concept of Appreciative Advising, I only shook hands with students who

Now I initiate the handshake and it sets a nice friendly tone for the
appointment. Doing so also helps me gauge the emotional state of the
student I am meeting with before we begin our conversation. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">I have attached a picture of my office from the student
perspective. I have always felt it is important to have an office that is
warm and inviting, and free of clutter. I try to keep the paper piles to
a minimum and off to the side of my desk.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">Always greet them by name in the lobby and usually shake their
hand and tell them it is nice to meet them or nice to see them again. If
I can’t pronounce their name (a lot of international students) I will ask who
is here to see me, then ask them to pronounce their name for me and do my best
to repeat it. I think this helps relax them in that I care about getting
it correct and I want to be able to call them by name. If they give me a
nickname, I note that in peoplesoft and make sure I call them that at the next
appointment.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">I invite them to sit when they enter my office, and ask how they
have been (how was your break, how was <u>last holiday</u>, how is semester
going). I follow up by asking how I can help them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;">
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"></span></span><br />
<span style="color: #1f497d; font-family: "Calibri",sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">When talking with students I will ask what their commitments are
outside of school. This allows them to talk about work, family, children,
etc. It helps me understand all of their commitments and how to help them
build a balanced schedule and discuss possible challenges. I also ask
what they are involved with on campus, which allows me to refer them to
different activities and events if they are not at all involved.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

asking these questions and I try to refer back to things they have shared with
me when we meet again to continue to connect with them.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri;"><span style="color: #f3f3f3;">I feel like disarming is a strength of mine, and one super
easy way for me to help students feel at ease is to make my office not feel
sterile, awkward, and strictly academic. I have a bunch of pictures,
posters, and a couple of maps on my walls. I have one map in particular
of the United States where I mark what schools students that I have personally
worked with have transferred from. It is a work in progress and it serves
as a good conversation starter, especially since such a big portion of the
students I work with transferred from a different school. Tiny simple
things can make such a difference when trying to disarm!<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

UAAC will facilitate a 6-month challenge for academic advisors across

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">

challenge, you will spend the month implementing the particular phase and/or
sharing your experiences, challenges and/or interesting insights concerning the
phase.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;"></span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="color: #f3f3f3;">Each month, we will announce at
UAAC the challenge of the month and send a message through the UAAC listserv to
give you more information about the phase and prompt you to share your
experiences and challenges with the Appreciative Advising subcommittee members.
We will collect your thoughts and share a few of them as part of our report at
UAAC the following month. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

<div class="MsoNoSpacing">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">If you are a potential
transfer student, meet with an advisor to discuss academic planning so the
courses you take before transferring will meet requirements at the U. You will
be able to set up a transfer timeline and get help understanding the
application and registration deadlines. Our advisors will discuss basic
information about U of U majors/minors and connect you with your departmental
advisor. Transfer Center advisors will also help you find a major that is right
for you and will help students feel welcome and comfortable about transferring
to the U. </span></div>

<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">If you are a current
student and have questions about transfer credits and what your next steps are
at the U, meet with an advisor to determine if transfer courses can be used to
meet U Bachelors Degree requirements. If transfer courses are not coded for
General Education credit, work with an advisor to determine whether those
courses can be substituted for one of these requirements. Learn about U
policies and procedures and General Education and Bachelors Degree
requirements. If you are undecided in your major, meet with one of our advisors
for transfer orientation and explore different major/minors at the U. </span></div>

<div style="text-align: left;">
<span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman', serif; font-size: 15pt; line-height: 115%;">When students are excited about, and
engaged in, their studies, they more easily earn better grades, build stronger
interpersonal networks, develop better professional skills, and learn how to
articulate their assets after completing their degree. Finding the right major
means finding a deeper and more satisfying U of U experience, with better
opportunities for life after college. The Expo makes the beginning of your
major exploration process easy, stress free, and enjoyable. It’s an open
invitation to the simplest way to see so much of what the University of Utah
has to offer, and it’s all in one place.</span></div>

Fall semester is upon us! As you start thinking about
preparing for fall semester, don’t forget to put meeting with your academic
advisor on your checklist. If you have declared a major, meet with your
departmental advisor. If you are an undecided student, meet with an advisor in
University College. Our office includes preprofessional advising, the major
exploration center, general advising, the transfer center, academic success
advising, and works with returning to the U students. If you have questions
regarding general education and bachelors degree requirements, what major is
the best fit for you, transfer credits, your academic standing, or general
questions regarding U policies and procedures schedule an appointment with an
advisor in University College. </div>

You walk into class and realize you are in a class of 200+
students. You think to yourself, “how am I going to get through this?” Your
palms start to sweat, you’re feeling anxious. High school was so different, you
were in class with the same 30 people, and the instructor knew your name, now
you feel like just another face in the crowd. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
This is the same scenario most new students experience. It
can be very intimidating and overwhelming. However, with the right approach you
can get through this experience and be successful in a large class setting.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Even though there are no assigned seats in most college
classes once students find where they feel comfortable they tend to sit there
every class time. You can take advantage of this by getting to know the
students that sit around you because they are probably the same people you will
sit next to for the rest of the semester. Start by making small talk, introduce
yourself and ask your neighbors why they took the class. You want to continue
to get to know those around you because you will need a friend, an ally, a
study companion. You never know when you will unexpectedly have to miss class.
Having a friend in class that you can ask for notes and updates on what you
missed is a key aspect of thriving in a large class setting. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There are a few classes that require study groups or
discussions to break up a large class to smaller sections, however many classes
will not have that component so it will be up to you to form study groups and
work on assignments together. This will become a regular aspect of your time in
college. It is so frustrating when you are working on an assignment but get
stuck on something. Having a study partner that you can text or email for help
can alleviate some of that frustration. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal">
You may feel out of your element when stepping into a large
class. You may feel uncomfortable asking a new person to let you borrow their
notes or ask a question about the assignment but in reality those students
around you are probably just as uncomfortable and feeling disconnected just
like you. College is about taking control of your education, even when it is
out of your comfort zone.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Take the
initiative and start forming those connections. You will feel more connected to
the university community and to those that spent countless of hours cramming
with you for your next exam. <a href="https://www.blogger.com/blogger.g?blogID=6495305436031594542" name="_GoBack"></a></div>

The campus will be a buzz as students and faculty return to classes. Academic advisors become a major source of assistance during this period to make sure that students are moving forward in achieving their goals.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Here's just a few tips for the beginning of the term:<br />
<br />
1. <strong>KNOW IMPORTANT DATES</strong> - The Registrar's Office updates a website with a calendar for dates and deadlines such as adding classes, dropping classes, withdrawing, and paying tuition. Find out more at: <a href="http://registrar.utah.edu/academic-calendars/spring2014.php">http://registrar.utah.edu/academic-calendars/spring2014.php</a><br />
<br />
2. <strong>ATTEND THE FIRST DAY OF CLASS</strong> - A higher education myth is that nothing happens on the first day. Actually this is the day that you meet faculty, teaching assistants, and engage with the syllabus. Also, you are paying for this day so don't miss out on beginning the term with all the information you need for success.<br />
<br />
3. <strong>CHECK YOUR SCHEDULE</strong> - Once you have completed enrolling and dropping classes, check your final schedule through the Campus Information Services (CIS). You should confirm that you are in the courses and sections that you are attending. It is much easier to correct errors at the beginning of the term than later in your academic experience.<br />
<br />
4. <strong>CHECK-OUT PLAZA FEST</strong> on Wednesday, Jan. 8 in the Union - This is a great opportunity to refresh your memory on all the opportunities available to you at the U of U!<br />

Lots of activities are happening (such as the Major EXPO on September 25 from 10 to 2 PM in the Olpin Union). In addition to participating in campus activities, this is a great time to secure a tutor for your rigorous courses. Students often ask me how other students earn good grades in all their courses. From my conversations with these types of students, tutoring is one key element for success.<br />
<br />
Let's use the rest of this post to connect to tutoring. Here are some easy steps:<br />
<ol>
<li>Review the courses that you are taking this term. Which one or ones do you find the most rigorous for you? </li>
<li>Now start to look for resources that offer tutoring in these areas.</li>
<li>If you have a private tutor, make appointments and keep them.</li>
<li>If you are in a group tutoring situation, be a productive member by showing up and contributing to the information.</li>
</ol>
The University of Utah offers many excellent resources for tutoring. Here are just a few of the many options available to you:<br />
<ul>
<li>Math: the Mathematics Department offers free tutoring in the Math Tutoring Center in the lower level of the Cowles Building. <a href="http://www.math.utah.edu/ugrad/tutoring.html">http://www.math.utah.edu/ugrad/tutoring.html</a></li>
<li>Academic Support: This agency coordinates the ASUU Tutoring Center and Supplemental Instruction for a variety of courses and disciplines. They have a variety of rates. <a href="http://tutoringcenter.utah.edu/">http://tutoringcenter.utah.edu/</a></li>
<li>The Writing Center: Have a Writing course or a course that requires a written paper? Then check-out the services available here. Writing is a process and everyone continues to grow through feedback. <a href="http://writingcenter.utah.edu/">http://writingcenter.utah.edu/</a></li>
<li>College, Department, Agency: There are many places to connect to tutoring at the University of Utah. Ask advisors, faculty, and student peers. The answers will give you lots of options for finding the best resource for you.</li>
</ul>
Thanks for reading. It is exciting to watch you achieve your goals at the U of U!<br />

Students moving into residence halls, buying books, and securing ID cards. On Saturday many students, parents, faculty, and staff attended the Campus Welcome hosted by the President and Dr. Pershing. Now, the first day of class for fall 2013 is upon us.<br />
<br />
Yes, I have a few tips to offer as you start this term. Here they are:<br />
<ul>
<li>Go to class, especially on the first day. The first day of class is often the time you start learning about the class through the syllabus and about the faculty member who is teaching the class. This information offers insight into what the next 15 weeks will hold for you.</li>
<li>At the end of the first week, gather all the syllabi you have collected for every class. Use these documents to map out your semester on a calendar. Every SMART Phone has a calendar app or you can purchase a paper calendar at the bookstore. Regardless what mode you use to calendar, record all assignments, activities, and exams so you are on top of when things are happening. Don't forget to include you final exams.</li>
<li>Look at the academic calendar for dates and deadlines. Review the date for the last day to add a course, delete/drop a course, and withdraw from a class. At the U of U, you start classes before you pay tuition & fees. So make sure you know the deadline for paying tuition.</li>
<li>Finally, carry your U of U ID card with you at all times. Many offices ask to see it to verify who you are.</li>
</ul>
The first week of classes can be exciting, fun, and stressful all in the same week. Ask questions early to make your semester a success.<br />
<br />
Good luck!!!<br />

<br />
It's July and you are counting the weeks or maybe days until the first day of fall term. At this point you have met some members of your campus or have names of people you will meet. This is a great time to organize the contact information of people you have met or will meet shortly. Who might these people be?<br />
<ul>
<li>Admissions counselor or college recruiter who worked with you during the admissions process.</li>
<li>At your campus orientation, you might have met an orientation leader, financial aid counselor, or academic advisor.</li>
<li>Also, at orientation, you met other new students.</li>
<li>If you are living on-campus or used a campus housing directory to find accommodations, you will have one or more roommates.</li>
</ul>
Creating a contact list is easy and offers quick access to people who might be able to assist you with questions as the first day nears. You might have questions about your financial aid award that could be answered in a short e-mail to a financial aid counselor. Maybe you want to change your major, which means talking to your academic advisor about selecting different courses. As you think about traveling to campus, you might ask other students if they are using public transportation and where they found bus information. These questions to your peers might alert them to preparation activities they had not thought about but they will greatly benefit from as day one arrives.<br />
<br />
So grab the smartphone, computer, or a notebook for organizing names, contact information, and their role in your college success network. Once you initiate this list, keep it up throughout your college career with periodic updates to keep information accurate and complete. Networking is an important skill to learn for success in college and in life!Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12170094168165412389noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6495305436031594542.post-82651479915333956172013-07-13T09:29:00.000-07:002013-07-13T09:29:01.910-07:00Summer - Great Time to Prepare For Fall Term<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Summer is a time of year that offers many opportunities to relax and reconnect with friends and family. It is also an excellent time to prepare for fall term at your college or university. If this is a transition year for you, here are a few questions that are followed by tips. Answering these now will make your arrival easier.</div>
<br />
<u><strong>When is orientation and how do I participate?</strong></u><br />
Most colleges and universities offer a program called "orientation." This program offers information for students who are entering campus for the first time and it assists with a smooth transition. The information may include:<br />
<ul>
<li>campus policies and procedures.</li>
<li>interaction with campus faculty and staff, such as academic advisors.</li>
<li>an opportunity to register for your courses for fall.</li>
<li>a tour of the campus to refresh your memory of key buildings such as the library, student union, and/or student life center.</li>
</ul>
Orientation is a great opportunity to meet your peers and learn more about the campus. It is offered in many formats, such as in-person or online, during the summer or right before the term begins, and mandatory or optional. If you have not attended orientation, contact your institution to find out how you can participate. It is time well spent.<br />

<u><strong>Have I registered for my courses for the fall term?</strong></u><br />
Every semester from initial enrollment to graduation, you will take courses. You might say that it is your main focus. So make sure you know how to register for courses on your campus and what courses you need to have a successful first semester. Some tips to follow are:<br />
<ul>
<li>Contact an academic advisor to assist you in understanding the components of a degree at your institution. An academic advisor is your companion in navigating campus to achieve your degree goals!</li>
<li>Ask about courses, cohorts, or learning communities that are designed for students who are new to the campus. These are excellent opportunities for success.</li>
<li>Think about your obligations for the fall as you organize your schedule. Will you be working and how much? Do you care for family members?</li>
<li>If you have scholarships and financial aid, know what the course requirements are to stay in good status. For example, a scholarship might require that you enroll full-time or maintain a certain grade point average (GPA) for continuation. </li>
<li>Register for courses as soon as you can to make sure you have a schedule that works best for you.</li>
</ul>
The class schedule is a foundational piece of your educational experience. It leads to graduating with a degree and an experience that is unique to you!<br />

<u><strong>Where will I live and how will I get to class each day?</strong></u><br />
This question is very important since this location is your "central command center" for the term. Some or all of "your stuff" will be here, you will sleep here, and you will be here. So organize now. Consider the following:<br />
<ul>
<li>Will I live on or off-campus? What are the amenities?</li>
<li>Have I secured a space in a campus residence hall, an apartment with a friend, or made arrangements with my family to live with them? </li>
<li>When do I move in to the residence hall or apartment?</li>
<li>Have I paid the appropriate deposits and know when monthly bills for rent and utilities are due?</li>
<li>What is my address? How close to the campus and classrooms is this space? </li>
<li>Do I need transportation? Will I purchase a car or use public transportation?</li>
</ul>
The organization of housing does require some thought to produce a situation that complements your educational experience. Use resources provided by your college or universities as you make decisions that work for you.<br />

If you have answers to all these questions, you are well on your way to having a successful transition to the college environment. But if some of these topics are new to you, you have time to act. Start immediately so that your first term begins and ends on a positive note for you!<br />
