New Directions in Mentoring cover

This collection is the result of action research carried out by teachers, administrators and professors operating a school-university collaboration. It creates a model of mentoring where guided but flexible structures are used to unleash the creative capacity of the group. The research accounts reveal much about the nature of mentoring organizations, as they are now and how they might be improved. Approaches include the use of lifelong mentoring, synergistic co-mentoring, professional peer networking and the creation of collaborative relationships and teams.

'The main strength of this book ... is that it is living testimony that participatory research in educational settings is possible, and can yield rich and insightful narrative data. That ... makes this a good book to read.' - Leona M. English, Mentoring & Training
