Faculty Responsibilities in Student Advising and Mentoring Each faculty member is assigned advisees by the undergraduate coordinator. As part of the teaching responsibility, it is the responsibility of the faculty member to: Maintain advisee files in an orderly manner. Update advisee files / curriculum sheet each semester. Provide guidance for portfolio development. Assess advisee portfolios. Contact advisees each semester with contact information, office hours, and

PASSPORT help sessions. Communicate with advisees departmental/college announcement such as

professional development activities, conversations on diversity, changes in certification, changes in PRAXIS, tutoring sessions, etc.

Meet with advisees to outline their program progression (curriculum map) to determine course sequence and projected graduation date.

Monitor and advise regarding PRAXIS tests. Respond to advisee e-mails and phone messages in a timely manner. Advise advisees on how to complete to on-line advising requests. Plan individual and group activities for advisees to build sense of unity.

Advising/Mentoring Students Is it mandatory for students to be advised? Yes. All students in The Department of Teaching and Learning must be advised every semester before they are able to register for classes. For the first 30 hours (or 2 semesters), advisees will advised by BOTH The Department of Teaching and Learning AND The Center for Student Excellence. This also includes transfer students with less than 30 hours. After 30 hours or two semesters, they will be advised exclusively in the Department of Teaching and Learning. Transfer students with 30 hours or more; initially meet with the undergraduate coordinator. The undergraduate coordinator will assign each faculty member advisees. Students can be advised in a number of ways:

Face to face – Students should be encouraged to meet with their assigned advisor during office hours. However, it may be necessary to meet with the students at schedule appointment times other than regular office hours. On-line – Students may choose to be advised through the on line system. Instructions are included in this manual. E-Mail – Rather than use the on-line format for advising, a student may prefer to e-mail his/her advisor. This is also an acceptable method, but be sure to keep copies of the e-mail communication in the student’s file.

What steps should a faculty member follow when meeting with advisees (face to face, on-line or e-mail)?

Continually update folder and curriculum sheet

Check the SARTE screen for SARTE status as well as PRAXIS tests etc.

Check the course history for prerequisites and minimum grade requirements in courses.

Check to see if substitutions previously requested are in the system, and update curriculum sheet, if needed. If the courses are not showing, follow up with the undergraduate coordinator.

Put copies of notes from advising session in student’s folder.

Advisee Folders

What goes into an advisee’s folder?

Curriculum sheet – Match the catalogue of record and major concentration. Remember that the catalogue year begins with the summer semester (June 1) each year. Thus, if a student starts in January of 2011, the catalogue of record would be 2010 – 2011. If a student starts in the Fall of 2012, the catalogue of record would be 2012 – 2013, If a student is out of school for one calendar year, he/she is required to change to the most current catalogue.

E-mail or any other correspondence related to student.

Contact log – Documentation is extremely important. Staple or tape a clean sheet of paper to the inside cover of the folder and document each time a student contacts you, comes in for advising, is advised etc. Note the outcome.

Phone logs – Include date, time, and outcome of conversation.

Substitution forms and requests.

Advising forms.

On-line advising requests and comments.

Curriculum map – It is a good idea to map out students to assist them in understanding their progress and projected date of graduation. A map is NOT written in stone (and students should be made aware of this), however, this does assist students in seeing the big picture.

Progress – It is a good idea to keep notes on the advisee’s progress relative to checkpoints in the program. Date your comments and note such things as discussion related to GPA, PRAXIS recommendations, portfolio etc.

Sample Letter to Advisees

February 7, 2011 Dear Students, Welcome to the Spring 2011 semester at Southeastern! I have been assigned as your academic advisor for the Department of Teaching and Learning. You must be advised through a face-to-face appointment or through our online system and have your advising block lifted. Priority registration for Summer 2011 and Fall 2011 will be from March 21-25, 2011. Students may begin being advised even before the Priority registration begins. I strongly encourage you to request an appointment or online advising early; you may begin now if you would like. You may do this one of two ways, you may make an appointment and see me to be advised, or you may be advised online. To be advised face-to-face, please email me at [email protected] or give me a call at 985-549-3425. Once you have been advised, your registration block will be lifted. Please follow the following steps to request online advising:

1. See http://www.selu.edu/Academics/Education/TEC/index.htm then go to “Student Information” and click on “online advising” for instructions on how to submit your schedule online. Please note that submitting your schedule to me for approval is NOT the same thing as registering for classes. YOU MUST include my name (Mrs. Sawyer) as your advisor on the online form.

2. YOU MUST email me @ [email protected] once you have submitted so I am aware that you are requesting online advising. (If you do not email me, I am not notified.)

3. When I approve your course selection, it will be available for you online via the LEO system. At that time you must go back to view (READ) my comments, click the button that says “Lift Advising Hold” and then LOG OFF so that the block on your registration will be removed. You are responsible for checking online in a few days to see if I have approved your schedule. Note that you may not register until I approve your schedule and until you have read my comments regarding your schedule. If I do not approve your schedule then you will need to make an appointment to meet with me to discuss the matter.

4. Check your registration appointment time at: Peoplesoft > SA Self Service > Student Services > Academics > View Enrollment Appointment. The appointment time is the time you can BEGIN to register for classes. Check the SLU webpage for more information about the dates. If you cannot find your appointment date, check with Records (985) 549-2066.

5. Register for your classes using LeoNet for Students at: https://psweb8.selu.edu:8202/psp/saprd/?cmd=login/&languageCd=ENG&

You can call me at (985)549-3425 if you have questions, or come see me in TEC 216. Let me know if you need help! I look forward to working with all of you, Mrs. Susan Sawyer Contact Information: Department of Teaching and Learning Office: TEC 216 Phone: 985-549-3425 Email: [email protected] Office Hours: Mondays: 10:00-12:00, Tuesdays 11:00-12:00, Wednesdays 9:00-9:30, 12:30-2:00,

Sample Letter to Advisees 2

Southeastern Louisiana University

College of Education and Human Development

Department of Teaching and Learning

From the desk of

Mr. Paul J. Simoneaux

January 6, 2011

To: Undergraduate Advisees

Re: Advising Dear Advisees:

If you are receiving this email then you have been assigned to me as an advisee as of this date.

Here are a few details about advising I want to share with you.

1. Priority Registration for Summer and Fall 2011 classes is scheduled for March 21-25,

2011.

2. Advising must occur before you can register for classes. That does not mean that you

must be advised during Priority Registration. You must be advised BEFORE this date.

You can be advised at any time during the semester.

3. To be advised you must complete one of the following procedures.

A. On-line advising – on-line advising will be placed on the internet after class

schedules has been approved. This may not occur until a few days before Priority

Registration. Again the schedule is not necessary for you to be advised. (I will

only suggest courses to be taken. I do not suggest the day of the week or the time

to take the class. I cannot change the schedule to allow you to come only on

Tuesday-Thursday or Monday-Wednesday.) Once you have completed your on-

line advising you MUST (a) put my name in the “Advisor” box AND (b) email

me to tell me that you have completed the on-line advising system. If you fail to

do either of these two steps, your chances of be advised in a timely manner is

reduced.

B. Face to Face Advising – you may call my office (985.549.5244) to set up an

appointment. I will advise ONLY during Office Hours. My office hours are listed

below. Please allow 30 minutes for advising. It would be helpful to come with a

list of possible classes you wish to take.

4. Office Hours for Spring 2011:

Monday – 7:30-8:00; 1:00-2:00

Tuesday – 7:30-9:00

Wednesday – 8:30-11:30; 1:00-2:00

Thursday – 8:30-11:30

Please make sure to schedule your appointment time during my office hours. Also, once

your appointment has been approved by me or my graduate assistant, please be on time.

If for some reason you cannot keep your appointment, please call my office.

I look forward to working with each of you during the semester. I am available to you,

but be aware that I have other responsibilities and duties that will not allow me to be

available when you need me to be. In that case, we can both be flexible and work out a

time to meet.

Best of luck this semester and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Mr. P. Simoneaux

GPA

What is the difference between a degree grade point average (GPA) and a cumulative grade

point average (GPA)?

The grade point average computed on all hours attempted is the Cumulative Grade Point

Average. The Cumulative Grade Point Average is the only Grade Point Average that will appear

on the academic transcript prior to graduation. Academic standing, campus awards, and honors

will be determined by the cumulative GPA.

The Degree Grade Point Average is calculated using the last passing grade earned for courses

required within a curriculum and is used to determine a student’s eligibility for an

undergraduate degree. All prior attempts of courses repeated for credit are disregarded when

calculating the degree GPA through LEONet.

Procedure:

Candidates, who wish to request their degree grade point average, should fill out paper work in

The Department of Teaching and Learning’s office. Degree GPAs are calculated and processed

after final grades of a semester are in the computer.

To view a student’s degree grade point average After logging into Peoplesoft (see Peoplesoft help sheets)

Click on Records and Enrollment Click on Transcripts Click on Transcript Request (in box current user ID, you should see your user id, i.e.

bberry Click on tab at top, Add new value Click on down arrow by transcript type and choose “ADV” Click on tab at top, Request Detail Click in blank box under *ID Type student’s w number without the w Click Process Request The student’s transcript will come up. As you scroll down, you will see the following.

The last highlighted gpa is the student’s degree gpa o Degree grade point average

GPA (required/actual): 2.500/2.860

What happens if I have a GPA lower than 2.5?

If the GPA slips below 2.5, the student may need to take extra coursework to raise the

cumulative GPA. Below is a list of good electives student may want to consider (not easy

courses but those that will provide a varied and enriching background for those planning to

become educators). Courses not in the student’s degree plan/curriculum will not count toward

a degree GPA.

Substitution Notes and Procedures

To submit a substitution request, fill out the substitution log and return to undergraduate coordinator student worker’s inbox.

The sub log is designed for more than one student.

If a course is transferred from another university and appears as XXX on the transfer list or transcript, have the student provide a course description and/or or syllabus from that university.

A general guideline to remember…According to page 57 of the 2010-2011 University Catalogue, “No credit earned at a junior college may be used for credit at the 300 or 400 course level”.

If the sub is sent to the Dean for signature, you will receive a copy of the sub form for the advisee’s folder.

If the substitution cannot be made, I will contact you so that you can let the student know.

Please know that it can take weeks, sometimes up to a month or more for the substitution to show up in the computer.

o This would be important if the student needs the substitution to show as a prerequisite.

o The student needs to realize the computer MAY NOT recognize an entered substitution as a prerequisite (at this point).

They will get an error message when trying to register for a class “requisites not met”.

o A department, however, can look in Peoplesoft and see if the substitution is in the computer.

o As an advisor, you can also look in Peoplesoft to see if the substitution has made it to the computer. Please see the Peoplesoft help sheet “how to view approved substitutions”.

Online Advising System for Advisors Students may make changes to their online advising form up to the point of review by an advisor. After the advisor has responded “approve” or “disapprove,” no further changes can be made by the student. NOTE: If an advisor disapproves of a student’s list of courses, he or she should give instructions in the comment box on how to proceed (email corrections; phone in corrections; face-to-face meeting).

The advisor can add information or changes to a student’s record - by opening the student’s online advising form in the advisor’s “history.”

An email can be copied and pasted, or a phone call or face-to-face conversation can be summarized “As per our conversation on (date), the following changes are noted. These corrections are approved.” The advisor would then change the response from “disapproved” to “approved.” This process allows for a permanent and paperless academic advising process.

OR – an advisor can open the record, view it for error, and if error exists, the advisor can close the form without saving and send an email to the student with required changes to be made before the form will receive an approval.

Advisor’s can add new information UNTIL the CLOSE of the registration period. Instructions:

1. Logon to LeoNet Faculty and Staff 2. Click on Self-Service 3. Click on Online Advising New 4. Click on a student’s record (your assigned advisee) to open, review and respond

NOTE: For departments who require students to list their advisor’s name before a record will be reviewed, and a record was submitted with no advisor listed, then SOMEONE can send an email to the student, telling him or her to go back into the system and add the advisor’s name before a response will be given. NOTE: For departments who do NOT require advisor names, be aware that it is possible for two advisors to click on a student record simultaneously, so other criteria should be used by advisors before opening and reviewing a record – such as alphabet, term level (classification) or submission date. Term levels: 10 = freshman, 20 = sophomore, 30 = junior, and 40 = senior. NOTE: IF you open a record accidentally, simply close it by clicking on “Return to Search.” Do not click on the “Save” button.

5. Review the form (note the total number of hours intended, the preferred courses, the alternate courses, the student’s standing, status, gpa, course history, etc.) UPDATE: ALTERNATE COURSES WILL BE CHECKED.

6. Click on “Approve” or “Disapprove.” NOTE: If minor errors exist, it would be expedient to select “Approve,” and write “With Conditions” in the comment box- then list the conditions. Since the students will not have access to the “Remove Advising Hold” button without viewing the comment box (and the conditions), this communication process is as effective as requesting students to come to your office for the same information.

Nelson, 2010

7. Review your comments for completion, then click “Save.” The record will become part of your advising

history and will be removed from the list of new records. (You can view past advising records, for students you advised, by clicking on “Online Advising History.”) The online advising system will automatically send an email to the student, from the responding advisor, with a note stating the form has been reviewed and to go back into the system to read the advisor’s response. With an approval, the student will then click on “Remove Advising Hold.”

(NOTE: Clicking on this button will NOT

remove holds placed by the Controller’s Office or holds placed by the Offices of Admissions or Records and Registration.)

If your online submission is disapproved, your advisor will give you instructions in the comment box on how to proceed to complete the advising process.

The “Remove Advising Hold” button will not be activated.

During peak advising periods, it may take three or four days to get a response from your advisor. If you submit your courses during the week of priority registration, do not expect to get a response in time to register during that week. You should plan to submit your courses at least two weeks prior to priority registration week.

Online Advising for Advisors PeopleSoft Version 9

Students may make changes to their online advising form up to the point of review by an advisor. After the advisor has responded “approve” or “disapprove,” no further changes can be made by the student. NOTE: If an advisor disapproves of a student’s list of courses, he or she should give instructions in the comment box on how to proceed (email corrections; phone in corrections; face-to-face meeting).

• The advisor can add information or changes to a student’s record - by opening the student’s online advising form in the advisor’s “history.”

• An email can be copied and pasted, or a phone call or face-to-face conversation can be summarized “As per our conversation on (date), the following changes are noted. These corrections are approved.” The advisor would then change the response from “disapproved” to “approved.” This process allows for a permanent and paperless academic advising process.

• OR – an advisor can open the record, view it for error, and if error exists, the advisor can close the form without saving and send an email to the student with required changes to be made before the form will receive an approval.

Advisor’s can add new information until the close of the registration period. At that point, it becomes a stable part of advising history. 1. Log into LEONet for Faculty and Staff.

2. Click Self-Service.

3. Click Online Advising Faculty New.

Page 35: THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING ADVISING …...o Policies and Procedures ... PASSPORT help sessions. ... Meet with advisees to outline their program progression (curriculum

4. Click the Search button. (This will display all online advising submissions.), then follow your department’s policy.

5. Click the student’s record to open, review, and respond. (Names and W#s have been blocked to ensure privacy.)

NOTE: For departments that require students to list their advisor’s name before a record will be reviewed, and a record was submitted with no advisor listed, then SOMEONE will need to send an email to the student, telling him or her to go back into the system and add the advisor’s name. NOTE: For departments that do NOT require advisor names before review, be aware that it is possible for two advisors to click on a student record simultaneously. Other criteria should be used to by advisors before opening and reviewing a record – such as alphabet, term level (classification) or submission date. Term levels: 10 = freshman, 20 = sophomore, 30 = junior, and 40 = senior. Criteria will show on the unopened record to help advisors know which records to view.

Page 36: THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING ADVISING …...o Policies and Procedures ... PASSPORT help sessions. ... Meet with advisees to outline their program progression (curriculum

student as necessary.

Page 39: THE DEPARTMENT OF TEACHING AND LEARNING ADVISING …...o Policies and Procedures ... PASSPORT help sessions. ... Meet with advisees to outline their program progression (curriculum

NOTE: If one or two minor errors exist, it would be expedient to select “Approve,” and write “With Conditions” in the comment box- then list the conditions. Since the students will not have access to the “Remove Advising Hold” button without viewing the comment box (and the conditions), this communication process is as effective as requesting students to come to your office for the same information. 9. Click the Save button to submit your request.

10. Once submitted, the record will become part of your advising history and will be removed from the list

associated with the link Online Advising Faculty New. The online advising system will automatically send an email to the student, from the responding advisor, with a note stating his or her submission has been reviewed. The email will tell the student to go back into the system to read the advisor’s response.

Note: You can view past advising records for students you advised by clicking Self-Service > Online Advising Faculty History > Search.

SARTE Selective Admission and Retention in Teacher

Education Policies and Procedures

SARTE COMMITTEE

(Selective Admission and Retention in Teacher Education Committee) The Teaching profession is highly demanding and remarkably complex. A person desiring to become a teacher must maintain academic standards and demonstrate qualifications for successful teaching including satisfactory performance in field experiences. Therefore, the College of Education and Human Development at Southeastern Louisiana University reserves the right to recruit, admit, and retain the Professional Program in Teacher Education only those students who show evidence of being capable of performing in an acceptable manner

Information Procedures for Undergraduate Students

1. SARTE procedures are found in the Southeastern Catalogue and have been approved by the University Attorney.

2. The SARTE Committee is appointed by the Dean of the College of Education and Human

Development. The committee has representatives from each of the colleges in which we have approved teacher education programs.

3. Students in the College of Education and Human Development or other colleges that

have approved teacher education programs will make application in EDUC 203. Transfer students that have approved credit for EDUC 203 must apply four months prior to the semester they wish to enroll in an EDUC course.

4. Admission Decisions: SARTE selectively admits candidates (students) into the teacher

education program and places them into one of three categories each semester: FULL, PROVISIONAL, and INELIGIBLE. FULL admission requires a minimum 2.5 GPA, maintain 2.5, achieve a passing score on the Praxis l PPST, achieve a "C" or better in English 102, achieve a "B" or better in EDUC 203 and EDUC 212, and have never been convicted of a felony.

Provisional students may only schedule EPSY 301, 304 or 311 (depending on curriculum) until they become eligible for FULL admission status. The SARTE Committee Chairman signs off on behalf of the committee on these admission decisions based upon quantifiable data.

www.FederalStudentAid.ed.govTEACH Fact SheetFederal Student Aid

TEACH GRANT PROGRAMThrough the College Cost Reduction and Access Act of 2007, Congress created the Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher Education (TEACH) Grant Program that provides grants of up to $4,000 per year to students who intend to teach in a public or private elementary or secondary school that serves students from low-income families. If, after reading all of the information on this fact sheet, you are interested in learning more about the TEACH Grant Program, you should contact the financial aid office at the college where you will be enrolled starting with the 2008–2009 school year.

Effective DatesThe first TEACH Grants will be awarded to eligible students for the 2008–2009 school year.

ConditionsIn exchange for receiving a TEACH Grant, you must agree to serve as a full-time teacher in a high-need field in a public or private elementary or secondary school that serves low-income students (see below for more information on high-need fields and schools serving low-income students). As a recipient of a TEACH Grant, you must teach for at least four academic years within eight calendar years of completing the program of study for which you received a TEACH Grant. IMPORTANT: If you fail to complete this service obligation, all amounts of TEACH Grants that you received will be converted to a Federal Direct Unsubsidized Stafford Loan. You must then repay this loan to the U.S. Department of Education. You will be charged interest from the date the grant(s) was disbursed.

Student Eligibility RequirementsTo receive a TEACH Grant you must meet the following criteria:

Complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA), although you do not have to demonstrate financial need.

Be a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen.

Be enrolled as an undergraduate, post-baccalaureate, or graduate student in a postsecondary educational institution that has chosen to participate in the TEACH Grant Program.

Be enrolled in coursework that is necessary to begin a career in teaching or plan to complete such coursework. Such coursework may include subject area courses (e.g., math courses for a student who intends to be a math teacher).

Meet certain academic achievement requirements (generally, scoring above the 75th percentile on a college admissions test or maintaining a cumulative GPA of at least 3.25).

Sign a TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve (see below for more information on the TEACH Grant Agreement to Serve).
