ACADEMIC ISSUES
Academic issues: Concerns within the context of school, college, or training environments that impact career and personal wellness.
HOME > Services > Areas of Counseling > Academic Issues
The academic landscape continues to evolve.
Teaching and learning are in a constant state of evolution. For many, changes in teaching and learning contribute to curiosity, excitement, and professional and personal success. Whereas for many others, these changes contribute to challenges and struggles that impede benefits.
Examples of how teaching and learning have changed:
- Struggles related to parental involvement
- Rise in technology requiring access and skills to benefit
- School-related concerns such as closings, overcrowding, and lack of resources/funding
- Social justice issues related to educational equity and closing the achievement gap
Academic issues are a “chicken and egg” situation – it can be difficult to tell which comes first.
Academic issues experienced by children, adolescents, and adults are diverse and complex.
There are a variety of issues that can contribute to, or be the result of, learning difficulties such as:
Productivity and Performance Issues:
- Procrastination
- Poor time management
- Test anxiety
- Poor study habits
- Inconsistent attendance
- Underachievement
- Failure (such as repeating a grade or course)
- Difficulties with concentration
- Being on academic probation
- Having a learning style that is different from the teaching format
Mental Health Issues:
- Difficulty adjusting to a new transition (such as beginning college or a training program)
- Stress related to balancing multiple roles
- Lack of confidence
- Having a learning disability
- Behavioral issues
- ADHD
- Anxiety
- Lack of motivation
- Low self-esteem
