Student Success and Completion: MAPs Training for AA/AS and AAS Faculty

Student Success and Completion: MAPs Training for AA/AS and AAS Faculty (2014)

SSP and MAP are new tools for students, advisors, and faculty in regards to the advising process for students. This online learning opportunity primarly focuses on what these tools mean for faculty, but also it highlights and explains the process as it applies to the area of Advising and Counseling, changes in faculty relationships with students, and how students will experience this change in advising strategy.

Learning Outcomes:

Describe the changes in advising for students who are first time in college and pursuing a degree,
Articulate their advising roles and responsibilities in regards to these changes,
Articulate the suggested steps in advising, using a MAP, and
Articulate the questions/areas of inquiry suggested during a student advising session.

After completing NOTEBOOK 2 (a demonstration) participants will be able to:

View a MAP, create a MAP, modify a MAP, and print/email a copy of a MAP.

"Shantell Strickland-Davis provided a passionate, engaged, and professional production of materials for the faculty MAPs training. Her direction regarding student interview recordings, and subsequent video production are an integral piece of the training, ensuring faculty reflection and engagement with the process. Additionally, throughout the process, as information was gained, modified, and/or expanded, Shantell patiently and expertly integrated said changes into the training materials. Shantell’s ability to transform information into understanding (for faculty) is evident in the on-going production of training materials, and this project would not be the success it is without her presence."
