{"title":"Editorial overview: mentoring for professional development","authors":"N. Templeton, S. Jeong, Elisabeth Pugliese","doi":"10.1080/13611267.2021.1922152","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13611267.2021.1922152","url":null,"abstract":"This issue of Mentoring & Tutoring: Partnership in Learning Journal includes research from an ethnically and academically diverse group of scholars representing the Great Lakes, Midwestern, and Southern and Western regions of the United States, and Southwestern Asia (Turkey). Conceptually, the authors frame approaches to capacity building and individual development through measures of induction, coaching, and peer mentoring. While previous issues of Mentoring and Tutoring clearly delineate the nuances between induction processes, coaching and mentoring, and peer mentoring, the manuscripts published herein establish a researchdriven coherent analogy to improving professional practice through purposeful relationships, role clarity, and positionality (Abbot, Graf, & Chagfield, 2018). Improving professional practice is often akin to traditional models of professional development that focus on community issues and challenges rather than on specific and demonstrated needs. According to Templeton and Tremont (2014), improving individual outcomes in education is a dichotomy that must shift from the isolationism of understanding student needs to a more holistic process of responding to adult needs that in turn facilitate the creation of new knowledge structures in students. Similarly, induction, coaching, and mentoring (including peer mentoring), are more effective when they become collaborative exchanges of personalized learning and choice; innately tailored to meet the strengths and needs of the intentional educator seeking to impact professional practice. Therefore, improving professional practice must support individual development. Whether learning new skills or rethinking developed ones, building capacity is a cyclical and evolving progression toward life-long learning through immersion in supporting processes that addresses differing levels of readiness while being sensitive to those differences by finding resources to support each person’s developmental goals. Moreover, Irby, Guerrero, Lara-Alecio, Tong, and Rodriguez (2012) posits the cyclical nature of continuous professional improvement should be embraced by means of support systems that enable immediate feedback aimed at skill development. Thus, this issue of Mentoring and Tutoring shares voices bound by synergistic thinking, for which the foundational premise of intentionally investing in human capital becomes an empowering protocol for standard practice.

Providing them with cross-age peer support through career-related mentoring may give them confidence and success in addition to providing them with personal, emotional, and academic growth. The purpose of this study was to analyze the relationship between career-related peer mentoring and student development, focusing specifically on the two roles pre-education majors played: those who were mentored by a graduate student and those who served as mentors to high school developing readers. We sought to answer the research question: How does a career-related peer mentoring relationship impact student development? Data sources were in the form of interviews, and the data analysis consisted of an inductive approach to the coding analysis utilizing grounded theory. The goal was to determine if comfort level, confidence, and self-efficacy would increase as a result of career-related peer mentoring.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82635517","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Focus groups ranged in size from two to seven students. After transcribing interviews, we used inductive content analysis to develop themes.

The researchers examined the influence of differences in culture and religion on mentoring relationships and professional growth experiences. Findings indicate that building bridges of understanding and trust in a cross-cultural mentoring environment, requires the viewing of teacher mentoring as context-specific. Mentoring is strengthened when mentors become familiar with the school community and exhibit a respectful, and non-judgmental attitude toward the unique religious and cultural elements of the school community. Findings from the study provide an important contribution to discourse about teacher mentoring through a new and unique lens that focuses on cross-cultural relationships and their potential to enhance professional development and learning opportunities for teachers and mentors.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73111585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thus, a smooth transition into the profession has long-term, positive benefits for novice teachers and their students. However, despite the fundamental importance of early professional development of novice teachers, support is often non-existent or insufficient – due to a lack of research-based evidence to justify funding and guide more efficacious processes for novice teacher induction. This idiographic study describes an ‘internal-external model’, whereby a former teacher is brought back to mentor three novices through their first year and their professional accreditation. Findings are discussed according to mentor qualities (communication, nurturing, non-hierarchical/equal) and mentor practices (independence, supportive executive, collaborative coach and resources/support). The study provides support for the external hybrid mentor model. Internal mentors (i.e. colleagues) often face time constraints, role ambiguity and potential conflicts of interests, all of which external (paid) mentors can overcome.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81091348","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We offer a STEM Mentoring Ecosystems (STEM-ME) framework to better situate, understand, and advance the mentoring systems that are needed to bring about change. We outline a STEM-ME framework, which we argue require shifts in perspective, expanding beyond individual mentees and mentors, as well as specialized mentoring programs, to analyze the mentoring ecosystems within which STEM mentoring operates. Next, we use this framework to examine and critique current mentoring infrastructure and mentor preparation; this includes an inventory of assets and gaps as pertaining to faculty, students, and administrators as mentors. Then, we examine how silos could be more synergistic, which new structures are needed, who and where the ecological stewards are, and implications for systems change. How the STEM-ME framework informs future empirical research and practice is discussed.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2021-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87316935","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Findings indicate that students acquired benefits in three broad categories: relational knowledge, self-awareness, and career development.
