5 Embedded Student Support
This chapter covers three types of embedded student support: Online Success Coaches, Embedded Tutors for virtual and F2F classes, and Pima Connect
Online Success Coaches
Online Success Coaches support your course by helping students with topics related to their academic success. They host one-on-one virtual student meetings both by student request and faculty referral. These meetings provide a space for online success coaches to employ active listening techniques to better understand a learners situation and curate resources and guidance that addresses their needs.
