Blog 22 | Independent Component 2

This is where one of the mentor groups meet up at

Literal
  • I, Jonathan Alvarado, affirm that I completed my independent component which represents 32.5 hours of work.
  • My sources are:
    • Jesus Sanchez | Uncommon Good | Volunteer and Youth Coordinator
    • Rosalilia Gradilla | Univeristy of La Verne | Coordinator of the Co-Curricular Community Engagement Program
    • Dr. Gabe Veas | University of La Verne | Public Speaker
    • Tori Weiston | Director | Youth Mentoring action Network | 
    • Dr. Daniel Loera & Nancy Reyes | Director & Assistant Director | First Generation Student Success Program (FGSSP) at the University of La Verne
  • Updated
  • I completed a chart that compares 3 different types of mentoring programs. How? I went up to these mentoring programs and observed how they all worked. The chart remains unfinished and will be updated by 4/30/2016. There is still a few things missing in the chart such as the rate at which students are able to succeed better, which will come with an interview with Dr. Gabe Veas (Hopefully)
  • What I did in this Independent Component was going out to different types of mentoring programs and observing what they offered to students. I took notes and made them neater to here (Click on the "here"). I was also able to find out what the differences in each mentoring program was. With this information I was able to find out how they helped underrepresented students. Such as the sub group of Uncommon Good which can be seen here, and the group of the Youth Mentoring Network in Claremont, where I was able to see what they did to help students
