Appreciative Advising as a Mechanism for Student Development
Virtue, Emily E.; Root, Bethany; Lenner, Robin
College Student Affairs Journal, v39 n2 p200-213 2021
University students who are placed on academic warning are often required to enroll in a course or program to support their return to good academic standing. This case study investigated the major issues that contributed to first-year students' academic struggles and how their participation in the Learning Contract course, guided by Appreciative Advising, addressed their needs and supported their development. Implications for advising practice are discussed.
