School advisor's beliefs about their roles and practices within a cohort grouping

This study focuses on the nature of the school advisor's roles within a
collaborative educational setting, specifically, a partnership involving a school district,
university and teachers association referred to as the Richmond Teacher Education
Project. The study investigates how school advisors view their roles and responsibilities
within a cohort group. School advisors describe their experiences according to role,
motivations, preparation and training, improvements to the program and
professional/ethical considerations.
Findings from the study indicate that the role development of school advisors is
dependent on the amount of time spent as a member of the Richmond Practicum Project
and on the relationship-building process between the student teachers and other members
of the cohort grouping. All subjects mention some difficulty in their role as the primary
evaluator and believed that the faculty advisor should share this role.
