Download or read book Mentoring Experiences Among Midshipmen at the United States Naval Academy written by Brett T. Baker and published by . This book was released on 2001-03 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated mentoring and midshipmen at the United States Naval Academy (USNA). The mission of the Naval Academy is essentially to develop leaders, and mentoring is closely related to leadership. Therefore, this study looked at possible correlations between mentoring and midshipmen at USNA. Specifically, the extent of mentoring on midshipmen at USNA, the degree of influence mentors had on midshipmen, salient features of USNA mentors, and other psychosocial outcomes of mentoring on midshipmen were investigated in this study. This study suggests midshipmen generally accept mentoring as an important concept, but only 45% of USNA midshipmen have mentors. Female midshipmen were more likely to have a mentor at USNA than their male counterparts. USNA mentors were typically older than their protege, Caucasian, male and in the military. Peers were most trusted and utilized as mentors. This study also suggests that midshipmen having mentors were more satisfied with USNA, more likely to mentor others, and more likely to hold a leadership position on a sports team or in an extracurricular activity (ECA).

Download or read book Mentors in the Classroom written by Jeffrey R. Raithel and published by . This book was released on 2002-06 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study investigated those beliefs and behaviors of exemplary faculty mentors for United States Naval Academy Midshipmen. The mission of the USNA is to develop young men and women morally, physically, and mentally. A clear task of the USNA faculty is to be the principle tool in the academic development of the midshipmen. However, the faculty is also in a unique position to be instrumental in the moral and character development of midshipmen. This thesis focused on the mentor-protege' relationship from the faculty mentor's perspective and attempted to identify those beliefs and behaviors common among effective faculty mentors. The following five propositions are put forward as results of this study: 1) Exemplary mentors appear to have high emotional receptivity; 2) The primary motivation of exemplary mentors is a strong desire to help others; 3) Exemplary mentors appear to possess strong relationship skills and employ those skills in their educational techniques; 4) Organizational factors can inhibit or promote mentoring within an academic environment; 5) Civilian faculty do not feel they were less influential than military instructors. Regarding the midshipmen, this study suggests that midshipmen do experience mentoring although not necessarily according to the classical definition. Furthermore, midshipmen are more likely to be mentored by faculty members that participate in extra-curricular activities outside of the classroom.

Download or read book Relationship Rich Education written by Peter Felten and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 207 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A mentor, advisor, or even a friend? Making connections in college makes all the difference. What single factor makes for an excellent college education? As it turns out, it's pretty simple: human relationships. Decades of research demonstrate the transformative potential and the lasting legacies of a relationship-rich college experience. Critics suggest that to build connections with peers, faculty, staff, and other mentors is expensive and only an option at elite institutions where instructors have the luxury of time with students. But in this revelatory book brimming with the voices of students, faculty, and staff from across the country, Peter Felten and Leo M. Lambert argue that relationship-rich environments can and should exist for all students at all types of institutions. In Relationship-Rich Education, Felten and Lambert demonstrate that for relationships to be central in undergraduate education, colleges and universities do not require immense resources, privileged students, or specially qualified faculty and staff. All students learn best in an environment characterized by high expectation and high support, and all faculty and staff can learn to teach and work in ways that enable relationship-based education. Emphasizing the centrality of the classroom experience to fostering quality relationships, Felten and Lambert focus on students' influence in shaping the learning environment for their peers, as well as the key difference a single, well-timed conversation can make in a student's life. They also stress that relationship-rich education is particularly important for first-generation college students, who bring significant capacities to college but often face long-standing inequities and barriers to attaining their educational aspirations. Drawing on nearly 400 interviews with students, faculty, and staff at 29 higher education institutions across the country, Relationship-Rich Education provides readers with practical advice on how they can develop and sustain powerful relationship-based learning in their own contexts. Ultimately, the book is an invitation—and a challenge—for faculty, administrators, and student life staff to move relationships from the periphery to the center of undergraduate education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: …a comprehensive overview of the current state of research, theory and practice drawn from the leading scholars and practitioners who have advanced our understanding of mentoring in the workplace… The Handbook of Mentoring at Work; Research, Theory, and Practice, provides a definitive guide that not only informs the field, but also extends it in three critical ways: Chronicles the current state of knowledge of mentoring and identifies important new areas of research: The Handbook begins with offering an extensive, cutting-edge and in-depth review of core topics in mentoring research, such as diversity in mentoring relationships, learning processes in mentoring relationships, formal mentoring, peer mentoring, socialization and mentoring, leadership and mentoring, dysfunctional mentoring, personality and mentoring, and electronic mentoring. Extends the theoretical horizon of mentoring: The theoretical section of the Handbook builds and extends mentoring theory by drawing on a diverse and rich literature of related theories, such as network theory, adult development theory, relational theory, communication theory, personal change theory, work-family theory and theories of emotional intelligence. Builds a bridge between the practice and study of mentoring: The Handbook includes chapters that address not only formal mentoring programs, but also mentoring practices that relate to leadership development programs, diversity programs and international perspectives. The Handbook is a "must-have" reference for understanding the key debates and issues facing mentoring scholars and practitioners, and provides a theory-driven road map to guide future research and practice in the field of mentoring.

Download or read book Handbook of Research on Character and Leadership Development in Military Schools written by Ryan, Mark Patrick and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2021-01-22 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Military academies have served youth for more than a century with proud traditions of producing graduates who are scholars, leaders, and athletes who adhere to a code of honor and ethical principles as they take the knowledge, skills, and dispositions gained at those academies into higher education, the business world, military service, civic endeavors, and the broader workforce. There is a current gap and need for research that explores the various components of a K-20 military school/college education and how those components successfully produce leaders of character for our military, civic, academic, and business worlds both in the United States and abroad. The Handbook of Research on Character and Leadership Development in Military Schools synthesizes research on the impact of military academies by providing a singular compendium of current academic studies on the graduates of military academies and the communities of which they enter after graduation. The chapters will explore the academics, leadership, character development, citizenship, athletics, and other dimensions of both global and national, and both private and public, military academies. This book is ideal for current leaders, staffs, governing board members, and alumni of military academies both in the United States and internationally along with policymakers, government officials, practitioners, researchers, academicians, and students interested in the implications of character and leadership development on individuals enrolled in or graduated from military schools.
