Process of Research
Mentoring Guide for Educational Research

Situation:  Many educators do not engage in educational research simply because they do not know how to begin.  In our community of Engineering Educational

Research at University of Idaho we need this basic skill in our members.  As our community continues to grow, both in numbers and depth, we need a simple means to mentor new members in educational research practices.

Goal:  To address our mentoring needs we created a Process of Research mentoring guide.  This guide provides a structure for a senior researcher to use when mentoring a novice researcher.  A companion workshop presentation was also created to introduce small groups of educators to educational research.

Results:  The Process of Research Mentoring Guide and the companion workshop presentation are available in the links below.
