Proper and precise goal setting will encourage an individual to achieve objectives. Besides, the current online lecture model directs students to have good self-regulation so that the learning process can be maintained optimally and results in the expected performance. Goal setting stimulates students to use learning strategies independently and also manage learning activities to increase academic success. This study explores forms of goal setting for online lectures and, more specifically, for students who take lecture credits outside their home universities but still in the Indonesian university. The data collected from in-depth interviews, direct observation, and documentation studies remain to be confirmed to produce accountable strategic model data according to the subject's experience. Interview guidelines were used to obtain forms and dynamics in setting goals of the students, who are taking courses in their university. The subjects involved in this study consisted of 14 students who took several online lectures that were named student exchange program. The results obtained in this study show that preparation for student exchange participation is required so that the goal setting for participating in this program can be maintained adequately. The learning process during the student exchange process should be monitored from the beginning by the student's academic supervisor at the home university. The function of the academic supervisor is as a mentor for students to take lectures outside their universities.

“…For this study, academic advising was viewed as a student support service where an institutional representative (in this case, an academic advisor) dispenses guidance and information to a college student, concerning matters related to academics, social or personal issues (Kuhn, 2008). The content discussed during an advising appointment can range from major or degree requirements, course selections, career direction or, at times, mental and physical well-being of a student (Champlin-Scharff, 2010;Flatley et al, 2013;Smith & Allen, 2014;Williams, 2007). In addition, academic advisors have a unique position in the lives of students based on their positions and regular interactions with them (Egan, 2015).…”

As the COVID-19 pandemic shut down most face-to-face instructions and services in higher education, universities struggled to continue teaching and serving students. In particular, student services like academic advising were significantly impacted, as most advising is conducted in person. The use of synchronous communication technology was suddenly increased to continue advising students, employing Remote Academic Advising (RAA). Three researchers at a state university in the southeast USA conducted a case study to understand the experiences of using RAA by academic advisors. The study included 11 academic advisors from different academic colleges and areas who were engaged in RAA to provide advising service to students during the 2020–2021 academic year. Four themes emerged after a reiterative process of coding and analysing the interview responses. The four themes were a slow transition to using RAA, RAA can also be relational, RAA can promote more awareness of mental health and RAA should be part of regular advising practice. The discussion section includes recommendations for advancing RAA as regular practice through a concerted effort of promotion, leadership and effective use of RAA with synchronous communication technology among the advising community on campus.

“…In addition to promoting professional and social skills, academic advisors create grounds for the students to help them establish the communication and make use of available resources in the society. [ 5 ] One of the most significant factors in the success of academic advising systems in universities is establishing the strong relationships between students and academic advisors, which is a process through which students actualize their utmost academic capacity through their relationship and information exchange with their academic advisors.
