If you're looking for a mentoring structure, a good start.
This book begins with a discussion of mentoring and when and why it might be appropriate. General issues regarding mentoring are discussed, such as finding mentors, developing relationships, involving school personnel, parents and the community. The book then goes into the specific mentoring project entitled "The Mentor Program." Several questionnaires and forms are included for reference (although the forms are copyrighted). This book explains that successful mentorships don't just happen and aren't always easy to set up. Several "how to" suggestions appear throughout the book. Of special interest is the preparation for participation in the first aspect of the program called the "Mentor Seminar." That is a prerequisite for participating in the "Mentor Field Experience," the actual mentor relationship. Some good ideas can be gleaned from examining how this program was set up and where it succeeded. Similar Products
