Paper Abstract:
|
This study explored a process of mentoring African American males transitioning from high school to college. The
researcher used Phinney and Ongs (2007) conceptualization and measurement of ethnic identity development employing
the Multi-Group Ethnic Identity Measure-Revised survey. This research is intended to provide insight into the potential
impact of mentoring on a group of African American male students who are navigating their first year of college, while
discovering who they are. The use of digital sources assisted in the communication and relationship building processes
that helped to support the mentorship effort. This is the initial phase of an ongoing study. |
