In the mentoring programme project“Schule f€ur alle”(“School for all”) at the University of Bielefeld inNorth Rhine-Westphalia, university students of primary or special education support a child who is in asituation of crisis for more than one year. In addition, the university students receive ongoing, systematicuniversity support (cf. Kottmann, 2007, p. 32; Kottmann, 2014, p. 380).The accompanying research by“Schule f€ur alle”focuses on the professionalization processes of studentteachers during practical phases at universities; accordingly, control groups were included on a pro ratabasis. In the pre-post design, all students completed a questionnaire (cf. Pieper, Kottmann & Miller, 2018,p. 294), the evaluation of which shows few changes in the professional perception of competence. Studentsof the mentoring programme also regularly reflected on their practical experience. Based on the objectivehermeneutics it was discovered that the conception of the project supports the process of perceiving,acknowledging and becoming more sensitive in regard to heterogeneous realities in life (cf. Pieper &Kottmann 2019b, p. 312) and that students can consciously perceive and reflect their own normativeexpectations (cf. Pieper & Kottmann 2019a, p. 79).The article primarily presents the results of the pre-post survey in detail and adds insights into thequalitative evaluation processes. In the conclusion, the potential of the project and mentoring programmesin general, specifically for teacher training students, is described.
