Utilizing positive psychology and other change methodologies, Appreciative Education has allowed educational institutions to create a culture of ongoing learning, change, and improvement. Appreciative Education can be practiced with students in academic advising, coaching, and other higher education settings using its six phases (Disarm, Discover, Dream, Design, Deliver, and Don't Settle).
This session will explore how we can help students optimize their educational experiences, identify strengths,
and achieve their goals. Part 1 will focus on the framework of Appreciative Education (also known as
Appreciative Advising or Appreciative Inquiry) to unlock student potential. This session will also focus on the
Disarm phase of the Appreciative Education framework.
Note: Appreciative Education/Advising was co-founded by Jennifer L. Bloom, Ed.D., who also founded the
Office of Appreciative Education at Florida Atlantic University.
