A standards framework for academic e-advising services
by E. Vance Wilson
International Journal of Services and Standards (IJSS), Vol. 1, No. 1, 2004

Abstract: E-advising services provide a mechanism for using the internet to provide many aspects of academic advising. Benefits include the ability to offer advising to off-campus students enrolled in distance learning programmes and increase advising opportunities for on-campus students. Currently, little standardisation exists among e-advising programmes, and there are indications that initial development of e-advising systems is unstructured and atheoretical. This paper presents a standards framework for e-advising services that is based on theories of communication needs. The framework provides a guide to developing e-advising standards that are flexible to needs of advisees, advisors, and administrators.
