I'd be happy to be an informal mentor if any of them wanted to ask questions etc. Happy to continue that after December.

Many thanks,

James

Good point.

And I think we should collect and update our documents on “how to get started” (edit the guidelines, testing, etc.). It’s on the agenda for our next meeting.   

 

Best,

Martina

And I am happy to help with mentoring, too. When I spoke of distributing the tasks, I regularly teach students how to get stared with shell commands, git, and GitHub, and I suspect at least a couple of our new people may want an orientation in that. I wonder if it makes sense to divide up some of the orientation tasks among a group of mentors...just thinking out loud.

Hi Elisa,

 

Oh sorry, what I wanted to say is that we need three mentors.

 

Best,

Martina

Martina— Do you think it best for one Council member to mentor all three? That would seem to require a mentoring program rather than something more informal...it may be a bit daunting for one to take on mentoring three people. Can we maybe put it on the Council agenda to discuss how best to distribute and plan a mentoring process? I want to help mentor but not sure I would do a good job of it with three people to watch out for.

Dear all,

 

I wanted to ask who is willing to serve as a mentor to our three new Council members.

 

Best,

Martina
