There may be many times when you might just pull from one of these 5 advising theories, it is more likely that you’ll use a combination or flow between multiple approaches within one advisement appointment. A key is to keep trying different approaches until you find the one that best fits you and the situation.
The Advising Theory Survey is designed to guide a conversation with you and your supervisor about the theories and space where you may need additional assistance in building the theory into practice.
Save the Survey as your own GoogleDoc to fill out electronically OR print to fill out.
After you've completed the survey, schedule some time with your supervisor to discuss your responses and how they apply to your Academic Advisor role.
