Advice and recommendations should be based on student interests rather than on limitations.
Advisors should learn about the teaching styles of various instructors so they can provide focused and effective course selection based upon the individual student’s goals and disability.
Advice should be given based on evidence and not on supposition or stereotypes.
Awareness of faculty teaching styles and techniques can also allow the advisor to recommend that students fulfill their educational requirements by enrolling in courses that best complement their learning styles.
Students with disabilities may need help developing strategies to compensate for their disability.
Advisors should remember all these!
