Advising as Teaching: Establishing Outcomes, Developing Tools, and Assessing Student Learning
Hurt, Robert L.
NACADA Journal, v27 n2 p36-40 Fall 2007
In every way that matters, advising is a form of teaching. Using Bloom's (1956) taxonomy of educational outcomes, I explain how to develop learning objectives within advising contexts. The article also suggests commonly available educational materials, such as university catalogs, as content delivery mechanisms for students; in addition, it offers ideas such as reading guides and on-line lectures. Finally, I explain how to assess student learning, that is, how to determine the extent to which students' learning outcomes mirror the objectives established by the advisor.
