This semester, we will devote our Teaching in Community lunches to discussing mentorship. Though there is no one "right" way to mentor, a growing body of research and evidence-based practices exist to promote intentional, inclusive, effective, and ethical mentoring in academia. Join supportive colleagues to share questions, experiences, and “best practices” and to explore solutions to common challenges. As mentors, we are expected to provide feedback–both verbal and written–on our graduate students’ work, progress, and professional development. In this session, we will explore strategies for giving students meaningful feedback in a variety of contexts while also discussing the importance of soliciting feedback from mentees, as well.
