Abstract

This chapter documents the role of electronic questionnaires in assisting advocates and mentors in their work with students. A collaboration between a research team from La Trobe University and a group of Victorian schools saw the development of a set of online tools – the Student Achievement Inventory (renamed the Student Advocacy Instrument) which allow students to develop a profile of their interests, skills and attitudes, examine the ways they interact with their school, sort out their goals and plan for the future.
