What Makes a Good Advisor?

Have you had a really good advisor at SIRLS? What made this advisor so helpful and good? Here are a couple of thoughts to get your ideas churning:

• How did the professor communicate?
• What did the advisor communicate?
• Was the information timely or even proactive?
• If your advisor was not what you hoped for, what do you wish s/he would do?

Your comments will help to give direct feedback to the professors and advisors at SIRLS.

What makes a good online class?

The faculty wants our input on the very important issue: What makes a good online class? The more specific you are, the better your impact can be.

Here are some ideas to get your creative juices flowing:

* What are the do’s and don’ts for instructors from a student’s point of view?

* What are specific instances of  instruction, group work, assignments, or other “things” that worked well?

Your comments will help in the creation of a “best practices” document for on-line teaching.

Thank you for adding your input!
