2. What

with

approach

Support
Challenge
Ask
students
to
write
narratives
about
an
important
decision
that
they
have
made:
Why
did
you
make
that
decision?
What
were
your
options?
What
did
you
decide
to
do?
What
did
your
decision-making
process
look
like?
Would
you
make
the
same
decision
today?
Self-Authorship
Survey
Quantitative
instrument

5

Likert
scales
to
assess:
Capacity

autonomous
action
Problem
solving
orientation
Perceptions

Self
regulation
in

Promoting
Self-Authorship
(Baxter
Magolda & King, 2008)
The
role
of
the
advisor
is
to
listen
and
help
students
develop
reflective
habits.
Let
students
make
sense
of
their
own
experience.
1. Getting
acquainted
and
building
rapport
Tell
me
a
little
about
yourself
Why
did
you
choose
to
attend?
2. Encouraging
reflection
about
important
experiences
3. Encouraging
interpretation
of
these
reflections
4. Concluding
thoughts
Have
you
had
to
face
any
difficult
decisions?
How
did
you
handle
it?
What
has
been
the
best/worst
experience
in
college
so
far?
It
sounds
like
youve
had
a
variety
of
experiences
so
far.
How
do
you
think
coming
to
college
has
affected
who
you
are
and
the
way
you
see
yourself?
Has
it
affected
the
way
you
see
your
academic
goals?
Affirm
the
value
of
students
sharing
their
experiences
If
asked
for
your
insight,
give
it
briefly
but
emphasize
importance
for
students
to
explore
themselves
