Mentoring and Professional Review in Waldorf Early Childhood Education (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781936849659)

Mentorship and professional review in Waldorf early childhood education places the child at the center of our work, ensuring that we create an ethic of care, openness, and responsibility in our classrooms and in our school community. To be in relationship with our colleagues in this way, whether as mentor, mentee, or participating in evaluation, is a practical necessity and also asks us to reach beyond our comfort zones. Can we observe and listen with an open heart? Can we accept each other's biographies; can we speak and listen with understanding?

This new, revised omnibus edition of WECAN's guides to mentoring and professional review originated with the WECAN Mentoring Task Force over twenty years ago. Mentoring and Professional Review in Waldorf Early Childhood Education offers wisdom, thoughtful inspiration, and practical guidance, including checklists and forms for the mentor and evaluator that make all involved colleagues part of the process.
