The online mentoring orientation will be provided using the following wikispaces site: http://iu1mentoring.wikispaces.com
 * Intermediate Unit 1 Mentoring**

The IU 1 Mentoring Wiki is a tool to support mentoring in Intermediate Unit 1. The wiki will be a resource for mentors in IU 1 and also contains the required orientation session directions for IU 1 mentors

To learn more about wikis in general you can go to http://www.maralinaberger.wikispaces.com and select Wiki workshop on the left. * This is optional.


 * Required:**

First join wikispaces: Go to [|http://wikispaces.com] and join wikispaces. You will only have to do this once. Under the words Join Now: Pick a username and password that you will remember (no spaces please and at least 6 characters). Enter your email address. Leave 4. **Space name** empty. (You can create a wikispace of your own later.) Click on the **Join** button. The next screen will be **Welcome** **to Wikispaces. Don't make a new space.** Go to the email account you listed for your username and you will see an email from wikispaces. Follow the directions to confirm your email. Your new account information will be shown. Remember your Username and password. If you want a tutorial click on the Watch our tours link on the Welcome to wikispaces page.
 * Before** each mentor can use the iu1mentoring wiki, he/she must follow the directions below.


 * Now** each mentor must ask to join the iu1mentoring wiki. Go to http://iu1mentoring.wikispaces.com. At the top you will see **Join**. Since I am the organizer of the IU1 mentoring wiki, I will get an email from every mentor that clicks Join. As soon as I get the email, I will approve you as a member to the IU 1 mentoring wiki. Once you are a member, you will be able to post items to the discussion tabs. While you are waiting for approval, you can review any of the information on the wiki.

As soon as I approve your membership, you can start the Orientation. One part of the orientation requires that you read part of the book, 101 " Answers" for New Teachers and Their Mentors by Annette L. Breaux. Many mentors received this book last year. If you do not have this book, please email Lil Mickens, she will save one for you. The books will be available at the first Mentor/Inductee session. If you are not attending the October session, the books should be available in my office by the end of October.

You will see pages listed on the left. Please click on each page and read the information. Then click on the discussion tab for each page. Answer the questions. Please put a specific topic in the subject area and then your response.


 * Inductees may post questions on the QuestionsInductee page. No posts are required for Inductees.**

Email Jarol DeVoge at devogej@iu1.k12.pa.us if you have questions.
