Mentoring

All new teachers in Arkansas are mentored through the Pathwise mentoring program from Educational Testing Service. Each new (or "novice") teacher is paired with an experienced teacher who has been trained in the Pathwise Induction program. Mentoring takes place through a series of activities that includes lesson planning, observation, discussion, and reflection.

If your school would like Pathwise training for its teachers, please contact

the Western Arkansas Education Service Cooperative

or Laura Witherington, Director, Western Arkansas Education Renewal Zone.

For more information on the Pathwise system, see

Arkansas Department of Education, Teacher Induction/Mentoring Program

and Educational Testing Service, Framework Induction Program.

If your school would like mentoring within content areas, please contact Laura Witherington, Director, Western Arkansas Education Renewal Zone.
