Leader and Organizer SUMMARY OF MENTORING EXPERIENCE Mentoring Faculty Mentored three faculty members in the psychology department as they begin their professional careers at Hope College. Mentoring involved discussions about teaching and scholarship, as well as family-work balance Mentored eight junior faculty members through a mentoring program at Hope College. This program pairs second year faculty members with a more senior faculty member from a different discipline. The goals of the program are to help junior faculty continue to grow in their teaching and scholarship, and to have some social/emotional support while learning to navigate the world of academia. Each mentoring relationship formally lasts two years. As part of the program I have observed colleagues teach and provided feedback; I have engaged them in conversations about course design, technology, pedagogy, assessment, and teachingscholarship balance. The colleagues I have worked with were members of the Sociology, English, Biology, and Spanish Departments. Mentoring Students Mentored Paulette Chaponniere, a nursing Ph.D. candidate conducting a dissertation of psychological and medical factors influencing premature births in Latinas. Dissertation Committee member. Dissertation completed in summer I have extensive experience supervising and mentoring students in research. I have worked with more than sixty undergraduate students in research collaborations, most of those collaborations resulted in conference presentations. Some of these collaborations resulted in

8 publications in peer-reviewed journals. Four of these projects were regional award winners at the Psi Chi Mid Western region undergraduate research award and in August 2009 a student I supervised and mentored received one of four Psi Chi National undergraduate research awards (see attached list of professional presentations).
