Rising with the Tide: Applying "Adaptive Mentorship" in the Professional Practicum
Ralph, Edwin G.; Walker, Keith
Collected Essays on Learning and Teaching, v3 p3-8 2010
The Adaptive Mentorship (AM) model (formerly called Contextual Supervision) is described and implications are raised for its wider implementation. The researchers derived the AM model from earlier contingency leadership approaches, and during the last two decades, have further refined it. They argue for the transferability of AM, because it may be adapted by mentors in any field to assist protégés in developing professional proficiency in their respective contexts.
