Future oral health leadership requires scholarly research and publication. Mentorship in scholarly activities in higher education is often thrust upon faculty with limited knowledge and experience on how to successfully mentor. The research and writing proficiencies of graduate students are often in direct contrast to the expectations of their faculty, with many students arriving in graduate school unprepared for the demands of scholarship. Participants will learn useful strategies to enhance critical thinking for success at graduate and postgraduate level education, identify essential communication and feedback methods, and discuss innovative learner-centered practices when mentoring for scholarship and writing.
Learning Objectives:
- Describe useful strategies to enhance critical thinking for success at graduate and postgraduate level education.
- Identify essential communication and feedback methods to utilize when mentoring scholarly writing with graduate and postgraduate students.
- Discuss innovative learner-centered practices for scholarship and writing while mentoring graduate and postgraduate students.
