Things either the teacher or the Mentored Pathways Staff do to make a similar project more successful.
The biggest difficulty I has was that it seemed that Sean was not fully invested in the telementoring side of the project. He is obviously very bright and very interested in his topic, but his messages were cursory and his content was superficial. It seemed he was writing to stay in compliance more than to collaborate.
Feedback regarding the quality of the student's final project as well as suggestions for improvement.
A final project was promised, but never arrived. Sean continually indicated that he was doing work and making progress, but he shared virtually none of his thinking or his work with me.
I didn't see her final project so I am not sure where to suggest areas for improvement.
