Acknowledgments
Writing a book does not happen in a vacuum and we owe our families our heartfelt gratitude. To our wonderful husbands, Dan Brondyk and Brian Cook, who stood beside us through thick and thin, supported us when we needed it and knew enough when to leave the room when the going got tough. And to our children for being our inspiration.
We would like to acknowledge some of our colleagues at Hope College, without whom this work would not have been possible:
• John Yelding, our chairperson, for breathing life into the co-mentoring project
• Laura Pardo, our former chairperson, for her initial support of our vision for co-mentoring
• Scott VanderStoep, our Dean for the Social Sciences, for his ongoing financial backing and encouragement
• Doug Braschler, Director of National Accreditation and Special Programming, for his wisdom and leadership, in addition to his willingness to share college and program descriptions
• Amy Scholten, our office manager, for her quick responses to our requests for materials and information
←xi | xii→• Lori Schneider, our office assistant, for her brilliant design and implementation of our online version of the Student Teaching Assessment Tool and Teacher Candidate Assessment Tools
• Our great cadre of college supervisors (Lyne Burkey, Dick Chambers, Carrie Dummer, Stu Fritz, Jodi Gerrits, Carrie Homkes, Christina Hornbach, Kristi Karis, Ellen Kontowicz, Pam Maat, Barb Reilly) for their good spirit and willingness to partner with us in this adventure
• Our fabulous colleagues in our department for cheering us on
Sue would personally like to acknowledge the following people and their influence on her personal journey:
• Randi Stanulis for modeling empowering leadership and introducing me to the world of educative mentoring
• Suzanne Wilson for her wisdom, especially her advice that “the theory that gets you into the research is not always the theory that gets you out”
• Steve Floyd for his support and inspiration to keep pushing myself to make a difference
Nancy would further like to acknowledge the following individuals who have provided guidance and encouragement:
• Barb Ferguson for her wisdom and model as a dedicated and passionate educator
• Leslie Wessman for encouraging me to consider Ernest Boyer’s scholarship of application and teaching as a basis for my scholarly pursuits and research
• Susan Cherup for her positive energy and influence on “all things Nancy”
