We invite instructors who are either entirely new to Reacting, and/or who are interested in being advised on how to use a specific game to apply below.
If you would like to serve as a mentor, apply
here.
OVERVIEWOver October and November we will be doing a small beta-run of a Reacting mentorship program, with the intention of building a larger, ongoing program. We'll be experimenting with a new strategy for providing formal mentoring within the Reacting community to see if it will fulfill our (current) needs.
This mentorship program will have two parts:
-- General Reacting Guidance
Online modules providing general guidance and resources that can apply to most any Reacting game (ie: set-
up, grading, etc). We are interested in investigating both synchronous (e.g. Zoom) and asynchronous (Slack,
Google Classroom, other) delivery methods.
-- Game-Specific Guidance
Mentors will work with one or a few faculty to provide guidance on a specific game. Mentoring can be
synchronous or asynchronous, using whichever technologies work best for you and your mentees (e.g. phone,
email, Slack, Discord, etc.).
TIME COMMITMENT
While much of the programming will be available asynchronous, we ask that you try to attend a welcome and/or closing zoom call, ask lots of questions, and provide feedback, including completing a survey at the end of the program.
SCHEDULE
Actual program will run October - November
PRICE
While we are offering this beta-run free of charge, we strongly encourage participants to become members at
reactingconsortium.org/joinUnfortunately, there is a limit on the number of people we can accept into the first cohort of mentors and mentees – so please APPLY BELOW. DEADLINE WILL BE SEPTEMBER 23, 2022
