Abstract

Literature review of academic advising in higher education

Academic advising is an important topic in higher education. However, despite numerous attempts over the years, there is still no universally accepted definition of the concept. Although approaches to research may vary between institutions, there is a consensus that academic advisors play a strong, central and multifaceted role. They not only assist students in their academic progress and help them find personalised career opportunities, but also contribute to student retention, reduce university drop-out rates, and provide intellectual and personal growth. Additionally, they offer holistic support for higher education students. Universities have developed academic systems based on student-teacher relationships to facilitate collaborative working. The COVID-19 epidemic has further increased the use of technology-based academic advising systems. When using these systems, it is important to consider factors such as understanding of advisors’ role, personalisation, student behavior and attitude, and service benefits. The factors that may determine the use of (online) academic advising programmes and therefore the service should be examined in detail, ha a university wants to implement a student service. This theoretical paper examines the ambiguous definition of academic advising, the aims and forms of the programmes, and eventually the theoretical and practical factors to consider when designing such a system. The findings can be used in developing a university academic advising system that best suits the needs of the students, the advisors and the goals of the university.
