Helping students navigate and stay on course to reach their educational goals…

Sinclair’s MAP Maker• My Academic Plan (MAP)• Concept and design of MAP result of SCC’s
conversion to semesters• Pledge to students:– Conversion to semesters would not increase cost
of their education or lengthen the time needed to complete degree, as long as student has MAP created and follows MAP.
Academic Advising and Student Scheduling
What courses do I need?When are my courses offered?
How do I plan it all??
Can you give me that list ofcourses Again? Quarters to semesters???
Why isn’t this
easy?
What pre-requisites?
What's a degree audit?
How will I remember all of this?
Last time they told me….
Questions abound…• How do we know what students need to do?• How do students know what they need to do? • How do we know the students have done what we told
them to do?• Will the students remember to do what we advised?• How can we help students make the right decisions
without being too intrusive?• How do we ensure, that as an institution, we offer the
courses during the terms we told students to take them?
What can we do about it?• Create a clear individual Academic path for
each student (tailored to them)• Be Prescriptive (but not stringent)• Remind the student, and everyone who works
with the student, what that path is at every opportunity
• Take action if they stray from the path• “Default” path should lead to success with out
having to “Do Options”
