Description:
Building on the Entering Mentoring Curriculum and continuing conversations started at the January Mentoring Undergraduates in Research workshop, this workshop focuses on crafting recommendation letters for students. We will start by considering how mentors can evaluate student learning, particularly in the research setting, and then discuss best practices for writing honest and impactful recommendation letters for students. The end product/workshop takeaway will be a draft of a letter template in which participants have blocks outlined for information to include. This workshop is appropriate for any faculty, post doc or graduate student mentor at any stage in their academic career.
