Article Citation - WoS: 18Citation - Scopus: 21Development of Mentor Teacher Role Inventory(Taylor and Francis Ltd., 2011-05) Koç, Ebru MelekThis study aimed to develop and investigate the validity and reliability of the Mentor Teacher Role Inventory (MTRI). A total of 1843 student teachers in the Distance English Teacher Training Program participated in the study. The 58 items of the Mentor Teacher Role Inventory underwent principal factor analysis, which revealed nine factors relating to mentorship and explained 52.971% of the total variance. The KMO value of the MTRI was calculated as.968. The Cronbach's alpha was.951. These results indicated that a reliable and valid MTRI could be used for both the distance English teacher training programme and other distance teacher education programmes.Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 25Idiographic Roles of Cooperating Teachers as Mentors in Pre-Service Distance Teacher Education(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-08) Koç, Ebru MelekThis study aims to define the roles of cooperating teachers as mentors in the context of distance-learning teacher education. The participants included 358 cooperating teachers who mentored 4th-year student teachers in a Distance English Language Teacher Training Program in Turkey. To determine the roles that were perceived as mentoring roles by the cooperating teachers in the distance practicum, an inventory of 10 primary mentoring functions was constructed. These functions included five primary mentoring roles: 'self-trainer', 'networker, 'social supporter', 'academic supporter', and 'psychological supporter'. The results will contribute to an increased understanding of how cooperating teachers perceive their mentoring roles during distance practicums.
