Abstract: | Experienced teachers, tasked with mentoring, often find themselves inundated with large amounts of didactic information as
they prepare for guiding new interns. In an effort to develop training that would both prepare new mentors and revitalize
experienced mentors, a state Educational Professional Standards Board enlisted the help of instructional designers to develop
an innovative online course. The focal point of the course design is a narrative simulation, embedded with standards-based
information, that provides user-selected, multiple outcomes as decision points to support dialogic reflection. Theoretical
and practical considerations for conceptualizing this multiple outcome strategy, quality review components and design specifications
are discussed. |
