In this episode, they do a deep dive into the online learning advising model Julie, and her team developed using four principles: appreciative advising, proactive advising, cognitive behavioral theory and shame resilience theory. During this engaging conversation, they unpack how advisors guide and support students to complete their online learning program using the 5Cs: Connect, Create, Challenge, Collaborate and Commit.
They also discuss how advisors partner with students to ensure that they have the support, resources, confidence and resilience to overcome challenges during their learning journey. They accomplish that by helping students develop critical thinking, set achievable goals, be accountable to others and keep their promises.
By the end of this conversation, you will know when to use one of the most powerful questions: “what is your ideal outcome?” that works with children, students, and lifelong learners!
This is an insightful conversation with a person who combines a clinical mental health background with engaging storytelling and contagious laughter!
