Description

Developing Effective Student Peer Mentoring Programs: A Practical Guide for Program Design and Delivery. This comprehensive guidebook offers a blueprint for creating, refining, and sustaining effective student peer mentoring programs. It provides specific guidance on designing programs targeting three key groups of under-served students: first-generation students, international students, and student veterans. The book is divided into two main sections, starting with an overview of the challenges faced by all students and those in these targeted groups. The guidebook then delves into the practical aspects of developing a college student peer-mentoring program, covering essential design issues such as establishing a program timeline, budgeting, securing funding, and recruiting mentors and mentees. It also provides a detailed framework for assessing students' adjustment issues to determine which ones peer mentoring programs can appropriately address. By following this guidebook, educators and administrators can create effective student peer mentoring programs that promote student success and retention.
