An educational community that is striving to create a healing humanity will flourish only if the capacities of individual teachers are schooled in the context of fellowship with their colleagues.
Collaborative Mentor Seminars grow out of the experiences gained from the Pedagogical Advisors Colloquium. These new seminars will explore deeper themes in Waldorf education, help experienced teachers mentor younger colleagues, strengthen cultures of mentoring in Waldorf schools, create action plans for schools, share teacher education research, and develop individual research plans.
The Collaborative Mentor Seminars will take place in three one-week sessions over the next three summers, beginning in July 2008. Applicants to this seminar will be admitted based upon the following criteria:
1. Applicant has completed eight-class cycle or equivalent teaching
2. Applicant has explicit support from colleagues for the role of mentor
3. Applicant’s colleagues commit to strengthening mentoring in their school
4. Applicant’s school is committed to supporting the three-year duration of the course
Participants will be expected to attend all three sessions in sequence since each will form the basis for subsequent sessions. Ideally two colleagues from a school would participate in the course to cultivate more broadly a culture of on-going mentoring in their school.
Endorsement from the AWSNA delegate in the participant’s Waldorf School is needed to be eligible for a Mentor Seminar discount. Official endorsement forms can be obtained from the Delegate or from the office of the Center for Anthroposophy. Housing is very limited, so early sign-up is crucial for those seeking on campus housing.
