Full paper Mentoring students: A programme approach

This paper explores the academic staff experiences and perceptions of a mentoring scheme, where all students in the Bachelor of Computing Systems Degree were assigned a mentor. It builds on a previous scheme where students identified as at risk were individually mentored, but was widened to include all students. Observations are provided from staff involved in the mentoring scheme and modifications to the scheme are suggested. Problems with assigning mentees and time constraints were identified as significant issues
