- TeleMentoring Resources -
Telementoring is a critical strategy for mentoring and for providing support to mentors themselves. However, numerous research studies, including one I was a part of in Texas for the Federal Government, have shown that alone telementoring is very inadequate support. It just doesn't happen as well, nor as often as it needs to. Still, telementoring is a crucial element in the mentor's bag of strategies which allows for nonsyncronous, whenever you can mentoring to occur. As such, it may make the difference between a novice teacher succeeding and failure.

Here are some links to telementoring programs, guidelines and other resources which may help your program determine how to utilize this approach as a part of your total mentor and protege support system.
