This is a Powerpoint presentation from our part of a workshop session at JSWEC 2011. The session gave an overview of the research project with a focus on how we had drawn on Web2 technology in data collection and SWAPBox as a mode of dissemination.

This document provides some exemplar case studies that have been extracted from data collected for a research project. The project explored undergraduate students’ experiences of volunteer mentoring as an extra-curricula activity and the influence this had on their studies. The students were participants in a scheme that provides mentoring for young people looked after by local authorities.
