The dialogue between a mentor teacher and a prospective teacher is a key element in the supervision of prospective teachers in the workplace. This literature study deals with the issue of how to conceptualize the supervisory behaviour of mentor teachers in mentoring dialogues by systematically examining empirical literature on aspects of mentor teachers' behaviour during dialogues with prospective teachers. From the findings a model is derived which can be used to describe and map mentor teachers' behaviour in mentoring dialogues. The model may be helpful in the further development of the quality of mentor teachers' behaviour in mentoring dialogues.
This curriculum on social mentoring is the result of a collaboration of a diverse group of academics, practitioners and students from around the world and was developed and facilitated as part of the Erasmus Plus Project “Mentoring for Social Inclusion in Europe: Sharing Knowledge and Building Capacity” (Ment4EU). It was implemented for the first time in Europe as a cross-organisational effort with a transdisciplinary approach as a blended intensive program with 30 participants from the partner countries joined by a further 220 students, practitioners and academics from NHL Stenden and the Netherlands for plenary sessions. The intended group of learners for this course are students, lecturers, researchers, academics and practitioners (mentors and program managers/coordinators of mentoring programs) interested in learning about mentoring for social inclusion and who are active in the fields of social work, youth work, sociology, health care, community work, management and organization, and related fields of practice and study programs. The weight of the program is 5 ECTS. This curriculum was developed as part of the Erasmus Plus Cooperation Partnership in Higher Educatoin “Mentoring for Social Inclusion in Europe: Sharing Knowledge and Building Capacity” (Ment4EU), as part of WP3_A2 Training Capacity in higher education institutions, project number 2023-1-AT01-KA220-HED-000158214
The extent to which mentor teachers are able to address mentees' individual needs is an important factor in the success of mentoring. A two-dimensional model of mentor teacher roles in mentoring dialogues, entitled MERID, is explored empirically. Data regarding five aspects of mentoring dialogues were collected, using a sample of 20 transcriptions of mentoring dialogues, in which 112 topics were discussed and 440 mentor teacher utterances emerged. Correlations between the five aspects were determined and a cluster analysis was conducted. There is empirical support for the model. It is a useful framework to promote reflection on mentor teachers' supervisory behaviour.
In 2021, Citython editions were held for the European cities of Eindhoven (Netherlands), Bilbao and Barcelona (Spain), Hamburg (Germany), and Lublin (Poland). Within this project, BUAS contributed to the organization of CITYTHON Eindhoven in cooperation with CARNET (an initiative by CIT UPC) and City of Eindhoven – an event which gives young talent the opportunity to work with mentors and experts for the development of innovative urban solutions. Participants of CITYTHON Eindhoven worked on three challenges:- Traffic safety in school zones - Travel to the campus- Make the city healthy The event took place between 18 May and 2 June 2021 with various experts, for example from ASML, City of Eindhoven and University of Amsterdam, giving inspirational talks and mentoring students throughout the ideation and solutions development process. The teams presented their solutions during the Dutch Technology Week and the winners were announced by Monique List-de Roos (Alderman Mobility and Transport, City of Eindhoven) on 2 June 2021. The role of BUAS within this project was to assist City of Eindhoven with the development of the challenges to be tackled by the participating teams, and find relevant speakers and mentors who would be supporting the students for the development of their solutions and jury members who would determine the winning teams. The project ended with a round table “Green and Safe Mobility for all: 5 Smart City(thon) Case studies” on November 17 organized as part of Smart City Expo World Congress 2021 in Barcelona. This project is funded by EIT Urban Mobility, an initiative of the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT), a body of the European Union. EIT Urban Mobility acts to accelerate positive change on mobility to make urban spaces more livable.

Kwaliteitsstandaarden ondersteunen zorgprofessionals in de wijkverpleging in het professioneel en onderbouwd uitoefenen van hun vak. In dit project leren zorgprofessionals met innovatieve reflectiemethodieken te werken met de kwaliteitsstandaarden voor eenzaamheid en mantelzorgbelasting. Daarmee vergroten we de kwaliteit van zorg aan cliënten thuis. Doel Een duurzame en continue cyclus van leren en verbeteren opzetten in de praktijk, door de introductie van reflectiemethodieken die het leren en werken met kwaliteitsstandaarden voor eenzaamheid en mantelzorgbelasting bevordert. Resultaten Zorgprofessionals in de wijkverpleging leren werken met de kwaliteitsstandaarden voor eenzaamheid en mantelzorgbelasting. Inzicht in hoeverre reflectiemethodieken bijdragen aan het ‘leren werken met’ en ‘reflecteren op’ het werken met kwaliteitsstandaarden. Looptijd 01 maart 2021 - 01 maart 2024 Aanpak Met een actiegeoriënteerde aanpak gaan onderzoekers en zorgprofessionals gezamenlijk aan de slag met verschillende reflectiemethodieken. De reflectiemethodieken zijn ‘mentoring’, ‘peer-to-peer shadowing’ en ‘het leren van de data’. Academische werkplaats in de wijk Dit project wordt uitgevoerd binnen de Academische werkplaats in de wijk. Dit is een samenwerkingsverband van Hogeschool Utrecht, de leerstoel verplegingswetenschap van het UMCU en vier verschillende zorgorganisaties in de eerstelijnszorg waaronder AxionContinu, Careyn, de Rijnhoven en Leidsche Rijn Julius Gezondheidscentrum. Het doel van de Academische werkplaats in de wijk is om de werkpraktijk, het onderwijs en het onderzoek meer met elkaar te verbinden en daarmee bij te dragen aan de kwaliteit van verpleegkundige zorg. Cofinanciering Dit onderzoeksproject wordt gefinancieerd door ZonMw, dossiernummer 80-87100-98-004.
