1. What are this student’s strengths/challenges that promote/impede his/her pursuit of postsecondary education? Are there key pieces of information you would flag for future teachers or counselors?
2. What evidence-based practices would you recommend as next steps for thisstudent? How might you help the student’s teachers become aware of these practices?
3. What evidence-based practices currently exist in the system (school/district/community college) that might help a student like this to make a successfultransition to postsecondary education? Are there other evidence-based practicesthat should be considered for implementation across the system?
4. Are there key pieces of information missing from the scenario that would affect your advising approach? How would you obtain the missing information?
