@book{2011:fibkins:an_adminis, title = {An Administrator's Guide to Better Teacher Mentoring}, year = {2011}, note = {This book address a major gap in the current mentoring programs at the secondary level. Staff development resources are often concentrated on helping new teachers be successful in their early school experience. Yes, a good idea, but a limited vision. Meanwhile many veteran teachers go without the mentoring assistance they need to be effective classroom teachers. While a few become mentors themselves, many veteran teachers just settle, slowly giving up, and become at risk of failure, burnout, and thinking only of retirement. This book is a call to school superintendents, building administrators, department chairs, school board members, union leaders, parent leaders, and teacher educators to address the need to provide ongoing mentoring for all teachers.}, edition = {2}, publisher = {Rowman & Littlefield}, address = {Lanham}, series = {}, volume = {}, author = {Fibkins, William L.} }
