These practices can facilitate a high-quality mentoring pedagogy. Professors Walkington and Hall were part of a research team that conducted an extensive review of the literature on mentoring undergraduate research, identifying ten salient practices which support effective mentoring of undergraduate researchers, and they continue to research the ways that mentoring informed by the salient practices makes college "worth it" for students.This episode is co-hosted by Jessie L. Moore, Director of Elon University’s Center for Engaged Learning, and Nolan Schultheis, a first-year student at Elon University, studying Psychology with an interest in law. Jessie L. Moore edited the episode. Making College “Worth It” is produced by Elon University’s Center for Engaged Learning.
