- Summary:
-
National statistics show a rise in the number of beginning teachers undergoing formal induction in their first year of teaching. This report discusses the effectiveness of induction programs and resulting outcomes for beginning teacher retention, beginning teacher effectiveness, and mentor participation. The various components of induction programs are provided, with in-depth discussion of: the role of the mentor; characteristics of effective mentorship and of successful induction programs; release time; and program evaluation and assessment. Included are aspects of induction programs that administrators, mentors, and inductees identify as essential to a program's success. Indicators of increased teacher effectiveness as they resulted from programs in California, Idaho, Montana, North Carolina, Wisconsin, and Toronto, Canada, are detailed. Statistics showing high retention rates for inducted teachers are given for Texas, California, Montana, and Wisconsin. (Contains 29 references.) (Author/SM)
