dc.titleDeveloping Online Peer-to-peer Mentoring Programs for Distance Degree Programs
dc.typeConference Paper
dcterms.abstractStudents’ successes in online learning programs relate directly to their sensibility of a community of learning and support services that help mediate this learning environment. This article addresses four focused areas: the academic and social challenges to online learning; defining online peer mentoring and provides a rationale for further online student support development. In addition, ethical and legal considerations in establishing online peer mentoring programs are discussed with the integration of two case scenarios for further analysis. Recommendations for future program development and an online peer-to-peer mentoring program development checklist for administrators to consider in program development are shared.
