One common theme was the importance of creating a mentoring team of other faculty members, university administrators, and departmental staff to assist with the summer interns. One of the foundational experiences during the summer internship was the week-long field trip, which defined each person’s position within the research team. One of the largest challenges for the faculty mentors was balancing the needs of interns with different levels of motivation. Overall, as the faculty mentors gained experience and benefited from working as a team, they were able to increase their satisfaction with the success of the internships and maintain their own levels of academic productivity.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":"39 1","pages":"202 - 215"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76826848","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}

{"title":"Editorial overview: contextualized mentoring models: from theory to practice","authors":"N. Templeton, S. Jeong, Elsa G. Villarreal","doi":"10.1080/13611267.2022.2044705","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13611267.2022.2044705","url":null,"abstract":"This issue of Mentoring and Tutoring: Partnership in Learning Journal includes reported research on formal and informal mentoring strategies from scholars representing New York and New Jersey in the United States, as well as Australia, Ghana, United Arab Emirates, New Zealand, and Canada. The authors critically examine the extent to which mentoring practices, perhaps better described as mentoring perspectives, align with mentoring theories. To situate the narratives perhaps better, it is first prudent to understand the differences between formal and informal mentoring. Formal mentoring formal is predominantly associated with career support, while informal mentoring is typically associated with psychological support. While the synthesis of emergent literature on formal versus informal mentoring is less discerning and often differs by discipline, Irby, Abdelrahman, Lara-Alecio, and Allen (2020) posit that formal mentoring is structured, whereby more experienced individuals (mentors) are carefully selected to distribute skills and knowledge to lesser-experienced individuals or groups (mentees). Alternatively, informal mentoring is often more organic and interactive, such that the relationship between two people is centered on gaining insight, knowledge, and support from each other (Irby, 2008). Irrespective of the type or model of mentoring, transferring experiences and understandings is a developmental and fluid process; one that often requires immense determination and sacrifice. The collective research within this issue explores different mentoring perspectives; from faculty-mentored undergraduate research, to mentoring preservice teacher education interns, to the efficacy of mentoring programs in the tenure and promotion process, to student-led peer mentoring. While influenced by context and purpose, the theoretical undergirding of each manuscript creates a funneled lens by which the reader is drawn into a lucid experience that bridges the gap between theory and practice. The Editorial Board of Mentoring & Tutoring invites more contributions to the literature that further advances the building of capacity through mentoring in all facets of professional practice.

Quantitative (retrospective and, one-group pretest/posttest) and qualitative designs (phenomenological) were used. Statistical significance was achieved for an increase in Grade Point Average (GPA).

The results from one semester of data collection and examples of learning shared by tutors and tutees on the feedback forms are explained. Additionally, a one-way ANOVA was conducted to compare GPA at the beginning and end of the semester, along with changes in GPA of tutees and non-users.

An interpretivist framework using Clarke et al.’s (2014) Categories of Participation was used to consider how supervising teacher knowledge manifests in mentoring conversations with the preservice teacher. Case study methods captured conversations in situ when dyad pairs (n = 5) discussed a particular lesson developed and taught by the preservice teacher. The results illustrate three Categories of Participation as most frequent, providing insight into supervising teachers’ knowledge base. An important finding from this study is the value of mentoring conversations for ‘making visible’ classroom teacher practices and knowledge to the preservice teacher during the practicum, which has implications for the professional development of supervising teachers.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":"04 1","pages":"38 - 64"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88777382","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}

Mentoring to be Active trains teens to deliver atheoretically based program to promote home-based physical activity (PA) and reduce dietary sugar among rural Appalachian youth.

The study estimated sedentary activity,and physical activity by accelerometers and dietary sugars (snacks, beverages) during ‘out of school’ time. Descriptive statistics and effect sizes (ES) were calculated. When the pre-post standard deviations differed, Hedge’s g were reported. Sedentary activity decreased 36.7% (ES = .798). Moderate activity levels increased 16.5% (ES = .359). Vigorous activity increased 88% (ES = .359). Sugary- beverages declined over 4 ½ servings. Sugary snacks declined 2 ¼ servings. Peer mentoring is a strategy to promote social support for healthier behaviors among youth at risk for obesity and co-morbidities.

Through four descriptive case studies, faculty mentors describe the rich cultural contexts in which the research occurs; elucidate the salient mentoring practices utilized to support students’ personal and intellectual development; discuss constellations of mentors spanning different institutions, communities, and countries; and identify key institutional supports within the ecological framework.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a mentoring program for new URM faculty in the areas of teaching, advising, research, service, and mastery of subject matter. New URM faculty were matched with URM mentors and received monthly virtual mentoring.

A total 321 student teachers (mentees) and their mentors participated in the study. Quantitative procedures (descriptive, t-tests, ANOVA) and qualitative procedures (thematic analysis) were used to analyse the data. The results showed that mentors rated themselves higher than student teachers (mentees) as providing more support in the mentoring situation. Factor analysis confirmed the proposed four-factor model designed to measure the mentoring engagement/relationship in Ghana. The challenges of the mentoring program include limited support, inadequate communication and feedback. How to address these issues are discussed with respect to preparation before teaching practice and the mentoring interactions in schools.","PeriodicalId":46613,"journal":{"name":"MENTORING & TUTORING","volume":"54 1","pages":"84 - 105"},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83330234","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}
