Precepting in three roles Helping students choose classes Teaching a liberal arts mindset Being a role model and a mentor
Helping students choose classes …and make progress towards achieving their degrees and career goals • CAPP evaluation • Degree requirements • Advising blackboard site and syllabus • Self-regulation and autonomy –goal-setting and planning, staying on task, gaining independence and personal agency
Teaching a liberal arts “mindset” • Integrated learning theory (Lowenstein, 2014) • Narrative approach (Hagen, 2007) • Self-authorship theory in advising (Schulenberg, 2016) • The Whole Student, the Whole Education
Being a role model and a mentor • Appropriate sharing of your stories • Countering pluralistic ignorance and imposter syndrome • Wellness, caring, and referrals (Gayda-Chelder, 2015)
Benefits of good precepting • Well-being and engagement during and after college (Gallup-Purdue Index Report, 2014) • Retention and degree completion (Habley & McClanahan, 2004) • Support for first-generation college students (Swecker, Fitfolt, & Searby, 2013) • Holistic advising and support for racial and ethnic minority students (Museus & Ravello, 2010)
