Abstract
Would you like to leverage the latest science on how health-promoting behaviors - sleep, nutrition and physical activity – affect academic success? Would you like to help your students study less but learn more and in the process also be happier and healthier? If you answered yes, then this session is for you. We will be discussing practical ways to support our students’ success through wellness-informed one-on-one appointments, workshops, first-year seminar classes, orientation sessions, email, etc. |
2B - The Disruption & Evolution of Advising Technology: Competence Based Decision Making & Analysis
Presenter(s)
Dr. John Sauter (He, Him, His) Assistant Dean for Academic Affairs, College of Arts & Sciences Niagara University Email Presenter Sarah Howard (She / Her / Hers) Academic Advisor The Ohio State University Email Presenter

Abstract
The pandemic greatly accelerated the adoption and evolution of technology use in advising and higher education. While institutions grappled with technology to meet the needs of remote learning and advisement, quick decisions led to both innovations and roadblocks. How can advisors boost technological competence to adapt to the future of advising and embrace these new changes? The Blended Model of Competency & Action (Howard & Sauter, 2017), a tool for analysis and decision making, contemplates the unique interplay of the ACPA/NASPA Competency Stages, the NACADA/ Multicultural competence models, and the concept of reflective practice. Participants will purposefully reflect and share examples from their campuses to explore strategic ways of enhancing technology development at personal, departmental, or institutional levels. |
