Who Is Mentoring the Mentors? |
Considerable research has been completed documenting the value of the mentoring process, yet we need to do more to practice what research says. What processes do we need to follow when teaching mentors, mentoring undergraduate students, doctoral students and new "baby docs," mentoring peers and mentoring student teachers and cooperatng teachers to help improve practice? What are people in the field looking for and what can we provide? Session participants will leave with a better understanding of not just what mentoring is, but what it can be, and tools to help them in the process of mentoring. |
