This paperexamines effective strategies used by four professional academic advisors in engineeringtechnology programs. A questionnaire was developed and completed by advisors to understandbest practices that results in better students’ retention and persistence to graduation.IntroductionAcademic advisors are committed to the students they advise, their institutions, their professionalpractice, and the broader advising and educational community. Academic advising is one of thebest ways to assist the personal, intellectual, and social development of students. Advising as aservice to students links students

This tool can also be used to at least partly separate effects of course design(structure and implementation of learning activities) from instructional environment, and each ofthese from instructor behaviors. Such separation can be quite useful in faculty development, andin assessing multi-section courses.Assessment of learning outcomes is not a simple task. Institutions are required by EC2000 toinclude input from all constituents, which will always include students as well as faculty. We areunaware of any work that explicitly compares student

This research focused on how faculty utilize thefeatures in an online learning management system to aid their students in the learning processand engage them in the material at hand. Specific elements were identified that facultycommonly populate in their learning management systems with and those elements facultyperceive students respond best to as well as care most about. Some of the findings will guideadministrators and faculty in developing an online learning environment. General tools availablein most learning management systems will be evaluated. This study also examined the extent oftraining faculty received in an LMS. And finally, we summarize our understanding of
