Mentoring University Navajo Pre-service Education Students.
Luna, Gaye
Journal of Navajo Education, v12 n3 p8-13 Spr 1995
A mentoring program matched 15 Navajo teacher education students with Native American faculty and staff at Northern Arizona University through preassessments that determined mentors' and students' preferred style of mentoring. Mid- and postproject evaluations revealed that specified career and psychosocial needs of students were met and that all but one student were retained in the teacher education program. (LP)
