Mentoring Scholars: Building a Network for Research in the Field of Mentoring

Session Type: Working Group Roundtable

Abstract

A working group roundtable will be held for scholars conducting mentoring research. The session facilitators are scholars from different universities with unique strands of research in the field of mentoring with an emphasis in education. Highlights of each scholar’s research agenda will be shared and discussion will be facilitated for scholars interested in collaborating on mentoring research. The strands include teacher mentoring and induction, mentoring new PK-12 principals, mentoring new PK-12 superintendents, and mentoring faculty in higher education. This session will showcase effective models and research findings that will serve as a springboard for dialogue. A structure to guide discussion on current issues and needs in mentoring research will engage participants in topics for future research.
