在高等教育中,越来越多地使用本科生同伴辅导,以帮助他们过渡到大学,从而减少第一年的自然减员。我们认为,同伴辅导也可能是一种传播价值观和道德的手段,这些价值观和道德反映了学术和个人诚信,并支撑了毕业生和职业认同。在定性研究中,我们考察了学生对心理学本科试点辅导计划的期望和后续体验,以及指导计划的过程和内容。导师和被辅导者认为,导师在帮助过渡到大学方面发挥着独特的作用。导师的建议反映了隐含的学术价值观,而不是战略捷径,而导师的建议暗示了他们对自身发展的反思。讨论了鼓励学生参与辅导计划的意义。
Peer mentoring of undergraduates is increasingly being used in higher education to reduce first year attrition by aiding transition to university. We propose that peer mentoring may also be a means of transmitting the values and ethics which reflect academic and personal integrity and underpin graduate and professional identity. In a qualitative study, we examined students' expectations and subsequent experience of a psychology undergraduate pilot mentoring scheme, together with the process and content. Mentors and mentees felt that mentors had a unique part to play in aiding transition to university. Mentors' advice reflected implicit academic values rather than strategic short cuts and mentoring cued reflection on their own development. The implications for encouraging student participation in mentoring schemes are discussed.
