Includes bibliographical references (leaves 47-53). Overseas research has shown that minority university students are at special risk for stress. South Africa’s race-based history of educational discrimination means that black students are multiply disadvantaged at formerly white universities. Many interventions around disadvantaged students have been reframed in terms of retention difficulties. In 2009, a psycho- educational support group was run with first year humanities Extended Degree Programme students. This study was a qualitative evaluation of the group. We found that the group was successful in giving students social support. Students also felt that it had been useful academically. Issues that should be addressed include clear avenues for referral and improving student/facilitator interaction. The stress and the academic demotivation that they experience suggest that the whole support programme should be evaluated and improved. 2015-01-02T09:21:14Z 2015-01-02T09:21:14Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MA http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11024 eng application/pdf Department of Psychology Faculty of Humanities University of Cape Town |
