Description

The Student Onboarding Mentor helps new learners identify their individual learning strengths and weaknesses before starting a course.

By completing a short, 20-question Likert-style inventory, students receive a personalized learning profile based on four core learning modalities:

1. Active and Interactive Engagement
2. Collaborative and Cooperative Learning
3. Cognitive Strategy-Based Learning
4. Informative Feedback and Mastery Learning

The mentor then provides a detailed roadmap for success, including study tips and course-specific recommendations—all designed to help students understand how they learn best and apply those insights to upcoming assignments and activities.
