The growth of synchronous online learning has occasioned the development of rules for appropriate online behavior (i.e., Netiquette). Netiquette rules are needed because some students have a tendency to behave in online environments in ways that are incompatible with learning. The current article proposes rules for how students should behave in synchronous classes, including dress code, engagement, and behavior. The rules will be discussed in terms of how such appropriate behavior could influence student learning and performance.","PeriodicalId":89967,"journal":{"name":"Journal of college and character","volume":"24 1","pages":"285 - 292"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44463820","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While campus career services hold a mandate to facilitate student career readiness and success, it cannot accomplish this ambitious goal alone. Career influencers are student affairs educators, administrators, and faculty members who regularly interact with students on campus and can initiate meaningful career-related conversations—even if they do not hold career development expertise. The authors discuss the value of purpose narratives that students can construct to describe their experiences and help build resiliency during times of uncertainty. The conclusion provides recommendations for post-secondary educators to consider to effectively frame every student conversation as a career conversation.","PeriodicalId":89967,"journal":{"name":"Journal of college and character","volume":"24 1","pages":"189 - 196"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48335804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To prepare students to lead across differences, leadership educators must cultivate students’ capacity to engage in diversity, equity, and inclusion principles. This article discusses how a community of practice developed a 28-Day Equity Challenge to examine social issues. Our conceptual framework demonstrates the interplay of how leadership and learning theories and appreciative inquiry informed this challenge and supported a creative approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion learning. The findings of this practice guide future applications to enhance student learning.","PeriodicalId":89967,"journal":{"name":"Journal of college and character","volume":"24 1","pages":"100 - 119"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41326780","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
