Application for face-to-face, online and blended learning contexts

TiTo has been designed for application in face-to-face, online and blended learning environments. Regardless of the mode of learning, mentors work with small groups of first year students. Mentors can be trained, either face-to-face or online, using the material under Training Resources.

Training resources

Resources for third year mentors

The workbook for mentors [PDF, 1.12MB, 62 pages] is designed in two sections:

• Section 1 covers the core aspects of mentor training
• Section 2 provides key material for the weekly meetings with first year mentees.

Workbook contributions can be assessed where mentors participate in the program for course credit.

Resources for first year mentees

The workbook for mentees [PDF, 203KB, 16 pages] is designed for first year students to complete each week as preparation for their mentoring session.

Working with tutors

Core to the success of the TiTo model are tutors who are present in the classroom during the face-to-face peer mentoring sessions. Tutors need to have a thorough understanding of the mentoring process and be trained to work collaboratively with mentors.
