Mentoring, Not Monitoring: Mediating a Whole-School Model in Supervising Preservice Teachers.
Sanford, Kathy; Hopper, Tim
Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v46 n2 p149-66 Sum 2000
A case study examined a whole-school model for supervising preservice teachers. The model employs constructivist notions that in a social-cultural context a persons' knowledge is created, examined, and transformed rather than simply transmitted and absorbed. The role of university facilitators changed from monitoring to mentoring, enhancing collaboration with school administrators and teachers. (Contains 25 references.) (TD)
