Abstract

This chapter identifies some guiding principles and models of mentoring that challenge us to reflect on what is best practice in a digital and remote post-COVID world. It supports the reader to reflect on the impact of vision, values and attitudes of mentors on styles, strategies and practices when mentoring in the digital realm. Then it explains how to recognise three main criteria for appraising innovative and effective mentoring via digital and remote models. The author uses case studies to illustrate how a mentor’s own experiences of being supported might impact their own digital mentoring styles, strategies and practices. Three key innovative and effective models of mentoring employed in the professional learning of 21st-century teachers are presented and the author illustrates how these can be adapted digitally using common guiding principles and key mentoring strategies in order to create a humanised and empathic online learning experience for mentees.
