Peer Mentoring Roles
Ashman, Marinda; Colvin, Janet
NADE Digest, v5 n2 p45-53 Spr 2011
Because students starting college are not always prepared to succeed, colleges and universities frequently offer courses designed to help students who need remediation in mathematics, reading, and writing. At Utah Valley University (UVU), peer mentors are integrated into the University Student Success course to help first-year students learn the skills needed to be successful in college. This research suggests that the more peer mentors, students, and instructors each understand the peer mentor's role, the more successful the peer mentoring relationship with students will be.
