Why are you passionate about 有料盒子视频 students and their success?
I have worked at the university for a long time in many student support positions. I like to help educate students on what their options are and how they can achieve their potential. I have the unique opportunity to work with high school students before they become a college student to introduce them to university classes.
Favorite part about being student support and an advisor?
I get to help students realize their potential for college early. It鈥檚 amazing to see students blossom and their confidence grow as they take classes.
What is your favorite feature in Nanook Navigator?
Saves me time! The ability to see everything that鈥檚 happening with a student all in one place. The pieces of a student鈥檚 puzzle are all placed together rather than having to find the information in multiple places. As an advisor, it鈥檚 also super easy to pull both midterm and final grades for my students.
I also appreciate student alerts that faculty put in so I can help intervene with support or options that the student may not be aware of.
How long have you been utilizing Nanook Navigator?
I dabbled with Nanook Navigator when 有料盒子视频 began using it in 2017, but I realized the full potential in fall 2020 when I began this position.
Tips, advice, or ideas to support other Nanook Navigator users or student success practices?

great resources on the Nanook Navigator website that I often reference for things like running .
