Faculty Mentoring Program
The mentoring program in the School of Education is designed to promote the development of productive academic careers on new tenure-track faculty. The Dean of the School will match new tenure-track faculty members who choose to participate in the program with an Associate or Professor to serve as a mentor. The program is entirely voluntary for both the mentor and protégé.
Role of the Mentor
Mentors guide and facilitate the academic career of a new or junior level faculty member. Mentoring activities may include:
Additional SOE Mentoring Activities
Watermark Users
The utilization of Watermark, an electronic assessment system, allows educational students the opportunity to develop electronic portfolios and submit assignments online. It allows a holistic framework for reflection upon the central issues of teaching and learning, aligned with reflective writing required of candidates at earlier levels in the Teacher Education Programs. The portfolio involves process as well as a product; you will create a meaningful record of your performance during your course of study, during professional semester and to engage in ongoing reflection while applying your new teaching skills.
