  7. Mentors • Research mentoring • In consultation with mentee, establish developmental plan within first 3 months. • Developmental plan should identify goals/objectives; set time-lines and outline meeting schedules between mentor and mentee. Meetings should ideally take place once per fortnight thereafter once per month. • Mentor should assist mentee in developing their teaching portfolio • Monitor progress against agreed goals and time-lines • Affirm and develop the strengths and work on weaknesses of mentee

  8. Mentors • Review mentee’s professional goals and adjust development plan accordingly. Plans should ideally be discussed at the beginning of the year and reviewed at the end • Introduce mentee to formal and informal collegial & information networks • Support or direct mentee to areas that can provide specialized support where necessary • Share information relating to teaching & learning and research • Assist mentee in understanding policies & procedures of your district

  9. Mentors • Be available on reasonable basis to support mentee in all areas related to their position • Encourage and assist mentee to develop their research profile (conference papers; book reviews; journal articles; books and grant applications) • Mentors should keep records of their meetings with the mentee (date, duration and brief summary) and provide annual interim report to your principal

  13. McREL • Stands for Mid-continent Research for Education and Learning. • It is a research and development corporation in Denver. • Dr. Robert Marzano, Dr. Debra Pickering, and Dr. Jane Pollack wrote a book called Classroom Instruction that Works while they worked for McREL. • The strategies come from that book. • They are often referred to as Marzano’s strategies, but technically McREL “owns” them.

  14. Meta-Analysis • Marzano, Pickering, and Pollock wanted to know what strategies were the most effective teaching strategies. • Instead of designing a new study, they searched existing research and identified 9 strategies that work. • Called a “meta-analysis” because they analyzed so many studies to derive the conclusions.
