| Abstract: | University teaching so often focuses exclusively on the subject being taught and takes little cognizance of the problems of the learner or of the learning process. This paper outlines an example of how the skills of a person outside the responsible teaching department (in this case a counsellor) were used to help Architecture students achieve the desired academic outcome. The counsellor's involvement had additional benefits for the students concerned. A case is made for utilising such a model for the benefit of a wider range of students. |
