Discovery and the Value of Experiential Education for Social Capital Development

Tuesday, October 11, 2022 | 10:00 - 11:00 a.m.

Join members of the Discovery Advising & Student Services Staff Council to hear about strategies you can implement into your daily practice to enhance the student discovery process, using an engaged approach to deepen purpose-driven experiences, make reflective observations, construct critical inquiries, and partake in active experiments. Participants will walk away with an understanding of student opportunity windows for accessing relevant and impactful projects, advancing intellectual agency and power, establishing community by virtue of purpose, seeking peer and staff/faculty mentorship, making consequential contributions via service, and maintaining a defined plan for project goals.
