Strategies and Resources for NBCTs to Mentor in
Illinois Schools |
The purpose of these
resources and
mentoring protocol is to support NBCTs to mentor
new and experienced teachers in Illinois schools one-on-one or in small
groups of one to three teachers about teaching and learning. Many schools
and districts may have systems and procedures for NBCTs to mentor. These
resources and mentoring protocol are not meant to supplant those systems but
rather to add to existing programs or to support NBCTs who do not have
structured mentoring guidelines and would like to begin to mentor
teachers. The protocol outlined here is NOT to be considered the only way to
mentor teachers. However, NBCTs will be able to facilitate the procedures
since the structure of the protocol is based on the NBPTS “Architecture of
Teaching” and the NBPTS Five Core Propositions.
