Abstract | In this study, the authors explore a Canadian field experience model in a bachelor of education program that focuses on mentor-based relationships between teacher candidates and students at risk of dropping out of high school. They examine teacher candidates' and at-risk students' attitudinal approaches. The model emphasizes praxis and social justice, and the authors argue that it would benefit from a greater emphasis on critical literacy theory. Data were collected through triangulation of Ministry of Education documents, a literature review, program coordinators' informal reflections and field notes, and interviews. Interview participants were two teacher candidates, three at-risk students, and three Student Success teachers. The mentoring improved human relations and attendance more than grades for the at-risk students. The results indicate that at-risk students feel individually empowered through the mentor-based model and teacher candidates demonstrate insights into their mentoring relationships. (As Provided). |
