Mentorship
The purpose of this course is to provide each senior with an independent study research experience coupled with an opportunity to visit on a regular basis with a mentor from the community who has expertise in the area of the student’s topic. Students will compile extensive research on their topic, write a research paper, create a final product, and participate in a final presentation. The final presentations, which must include at least one form of multimedia, occur in May and consist of a scholarly explanation of the mentorship topic and mentorship experience and a demonstration of the product.
