ABSTRACT

In this study, we sought to understand the development of mentoring relationships during the administrative internship through the lens of the Educational Leadership Mentoring Framework (ELMF). Two cases of mentor/intern pairs were used to explore how each experienced the phases of the ELMF. Data collection methods included two mentor and intern interviews, internship journal entries, observations, and time logs. Findings highlight the significance of necessary processes involved with establishing a mentoring relationship, cultivating that relationship through the development of trust, and how those efforts could or could not result in a meaningful and mutually beneficial learning experience for both the mentor and administrative intern. These results have implications for universities preparing future school leaders, as well as leadership pipelines and programs in school districts. Both entities could use the ELMF to enhance the quality of internship experiences, as well as the knowledge, skills, and dispositions of both interns and mentors.

摘要

在本研究中，我们试图通过教育领导力指导框架（ELMF）的角度来了解行政实习期间指导关系的发展。导师/实习生对的两个案例用于探讨每个案例如何经历ELMF的阶段。数据收集方法包括两个导师和实习生访谈，实习日记条目，观察和时间日志。调查结果突显了建立导师关系，通过建立信任来培养这种关系的必要过程的重要性，以及这些努力如何为导师和行政实习生带来有意义的互利学习经验。这些结果对于大学为未来的学校领导者做好准备具有重要意义，以及学区的领导力管道和计划。两个实体都可以使用ELMF来提高实习经验的质量，以及实习生和导师的知识，技能和性格。
