An evaluation study of the Galbraith Project PSIII internship

Abstract

The purpose of the Galbraith Project is to document the experiences of the participants (the interns, the teacher mentors, the faculty mentor, and the administration) in a PSIll internship study. 10 interns were "clustered" at Galbraith School. Specifically, the objectives of the project are: Did the participants meet their goals, what helped or hindered the attainment of their goals, and what changes; if any, would be recommended for the PSIII internship program? The findings from this research indicate that the role of the mentor, collaboration between the participants and time to reflect were important factors in aiding the participants to reach their goals.
