Reading the evidence codes

q is the design tier, i the impact, n the sample, and the kind with its r the rigour judged within that kind: what each code means.

This claim: no standardized effect is recorded in observations/ for it yet, so no benchmark reading is possible.

q2 i? In video-recorded dialogue sessions the mentor's talking time ranged from 4 to 14:11 minutes while the mentee's ranged from 1:10 to 4:20 minutes. → Sempowicz 2011 q2 i? Classroom management talk for both mentor and mentee ranged between 3% and 39% of total talk time across the five video sessions. → Sempowicz 2011 (2)

Sempowicz 2011¶

Sempowicz, T., & Hudson, P. (2011). Analysing mentoring dialogues for developing a preservice teacher's classroom management practices. Australian Journal of Teacher Education, 36(8). https://ro.ecu.edu.au/ajte/vol36/iss8/1 doi:10.14221/ajte.2011v36n8.4

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3

Talk-time analysis of five video-recorded dialogue sessions (Table 1) during the 20-day practicum. The mentor spoke more than the mentee in video sessions, though the gap reduced in subsequent sessions as participants became accustomed to recording.

"In the majority of the video episodes, the mentor's talking time ranged from 4 to 14:11 minutes while the mentee's talking time ranged from 1:10 to 4:20 minutes (Table 1)."

Sempowicz 2011 (2)¶

q2 · i? · qualitative · r3

Subset analysis of classroom-management talk in the five video sessions (Table 1). The mentor spoke more about classroom management techniques than the mentee in all but one session; audio dialogues showed more attentive listening by the mentor in 7 of 8 dialogues.

"Further analysis showed that the talk about classroom management for both the mentor and mentee ranged between 3% and 39% of the total talk time across the five sessions (Table 1)."

Discussion¶

Serious talk about teaching in school-based meetings spans five types of intellectual work beyond classroom management — related
Most attributes and practices of the five-factor mentoring model (30 of 34) provided input into a first-practicum mentee's classroom management, with no overt evidence on aims, curriculum, timetabling or assessment — related
A structured feedback-and-reflection cycle (pre-lesson plan review, immediate verbal comments, written feedback, take-up time, and open-ended questioning) supported the mentee's reflective development — related
Mentor interactions (60.2%) outnumbered teacher interactions (39.8%) in the workshop, with mentor Explanation most frequent and teacher Respond to Questions and Proposing Ideas most frequent — related
Findings suggest VR-mediated mentoring with 360VR supports newly qualified teachers' noticing, classroom management competencies and self-efficacy — a broader claim this one bears on
School membership and time of recording showed negligible association with dialogue measures — related
Despite longer AI-led sessions, the proportion of student-generated dialogue was markedly and significantly lower with the AI than with the teacher in both grades — related
