[tips] Sharing info Undergrad Mentorship?

2015-03-13 Thread Gerald Peterson
Some of our students have developed an undergrad mentorship program to 
motivate, advise, and guide new Psych majors through our program. The 
department is supporting this new program which we see as complementing larger, 
university retention efforts.

My question for Tipsters: other colleagues may have an interest in such a 
program. We are just initiating the program and have no data or assessment on 
it yet, but are there forums, blogs, journals, newsletters where we could share 
the outline of the program with other Psych faculty at undergrad institutions? 
I am thinking of having the students craft a brief note or description of the 
program. If it had been implemented for a while and was evaluated, I could see 
a brief article in the Teaching of Psych journal, but we are not ready for 
that.  Any ideas as to places to send such an account?

You might check into one of the NASPA conferences. They include many
workshops on assessment in general (academic as well as student affairs)
and retention initiatives.
