2020 Quick Guide of the Schedule of Events

8th Annual Advisor Week Schedule - Virtual Advisor Week!

Here is a quick guide so you can save the dates and times on your calendar - we've got a lot of great events and expect some additions, as well as detailed descriptions of the events!

TUESDAY, MARCH 24TH - Yoga at Your Desk
Topic: Yoga at Your Desk
Video Link: Download the video and do yoga at your desk with Rachel whenever you want! - Yoga at Your Desk (hint, hint, she's sideways, but then again, most things seem a little sideways right now...)

WEDNESDAY, MARCH 25TH - Coffee Talk Discussion - "Best Practices for Advising Online" - Wednesday, March 25th - 1:00 - 2:30 p.m. 

We've been reading articles in abundance about migrating advising to an online format. Join us for a discussion about what you've been doing and we'll talk through tips we've reviewed. (Although more home office related, some of these tips may include creative solutions to not having your office chair...) We also have been sent some resources that were developed for students as they transition to online course formats. We can also have a chat about that and making a UIC version of that resource. To download a video of our lively discussion Coffee Talk "Best Practices for Advising Online" Recording but if you want to get some of the resources we read visit the BOX folder where we've accumulated some articles - Resources for Advisors during COVID-19. In fact, there's a new resource Coping with COVID-19 that was developed by the Office of Applied Psychology Services and shared by our friends in Dentistry and Public Health! Our community is working together to share. Please send us your resources and we will add them to this BOX - anyone with a UIC netid can access it! The recording is also downloadable from the BOX - we hope you will excuse our casual "production quality"...
