Address concerns and if you don\u2019t know that is okay you can follow up with the right sources.<\/li>\n<li>Let them know what academic supports are in place. Students can create a virtual meeting space that their group can visit whenever they want to study and they may also join an existing study group. They can also contact the relevant Academic Resource Center Coordinators to request a tutor or SI to work with your newly created study group. For more information, students should check their emails from Dr. Holmes sent on March 27, 2020 titled \u201cXULA Zoom Study Groups\u201d. For assistance from the Academic Resource Centers see the email from Dr. Holmes sent on March 17, 2020 titled \u201cAcademic Resource Centers - Online Tutoring, Review Sessions, and Resources\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>You can assign pre-work for the meeting -- tell students what they will need to prepare for the advising session.<\/li>\n<li>You can reassure them that they are working toward the goals they have set for themselves. No matter what they are hearing or feeling they are moving forward. Though they are learning remotely\/online, they are still in a rich educational environment and will learn what is needed for their success. You can remind them how much the faculty care about them.<\/li>\n<li>While summer classes will be \"on-line\", this might be a good time to clarify the difference between \"remote learning\" and \"online learning\". Currently, if their class was face to face, it is now being offered remotely it includes an expectation that the student will login during the time the course is offered so their professors know they are there.<\/li>\n<li>In planning for the fall semester, take into account what the summer is going to look like for them. Help them have an academic plan because that will reinforce that there is an endpoint\/target.<\/li>\n<li>If you are using your personal phone and are concerned about maintaining your privacy, you can use Goggle Voice. If you get the app on your phone, you can make work calls from that number.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cBest Practices for Serving Students Remotely\u201d Sponsor: eab.com.
