This unique new book goes beyond describing mentor programs and giving advice about how to mentor teachers - it provides you with true-life, first hand stories! Here you see contributions from those who have mentored, been mentored, have supervised mentor relationships, and have instituted and run mentor programs. You hear from their experiences - practitioners, researchers, classroom teachers, preservice teachers, experienced educators, professors, and administrators; all from a wide variety of academic disciplines and different geographic areas. With this resource as your guide, you see how to improve mentoring practices through concentrating on the belief that new teachers are part of an educational community.
