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).
Part 2 of this series will continue the discussion on the Appreciative Education framework and explore the techniques of the following phases: Discover, Dream, Design, Deliver, and Don’t Settle. Participants will learn how to incorporate techniques into their student interactions.
Appreciative Education/Advising was co-founded by Jennifer L. Bloom, Ed.D., who also founded the Office of Appreciative Education at Florida Atlantic University.
