Commitment, Respect, And Trust: The Building Blocks Of A Strong Mentoring Relationship, Mandi Goodsett

Michael Schwartz Library Publications

Generally, these characteristics and behaviors fall into three categories: (1) a commitment to the relationship, (2) mutual respect between mentor and mentee, and (3) mutual trust.1 Fortunately, these attributes can be nurtured in mentors and mentees, especially when the relationship is given careful forethought. In this chapter, the mentoring relationship is examined, particularly the central elements of mutual commitment, respect, and …

Critical Information Literacy And Critical Service Learning, Andrea E. Brewster, Nicole Branch, Jennifer E. Nutefall

Staff publications, research, and presentations

Within this study, we explored students’ understanding of social justice in connection with research-intensive and non–research-intensive course assignments. Using a semi-structured interview technique, we interviewed 23 undergraduate students from 15 different …
