69. Student Guidance Reaches Digital Age is what leaves many traditional mentor programs wanting for volunteers while the Still, Cooper is not opposed to telementoring even if it might cut into her http://www.garone.com/writing/telementor.html

Student guidance reaches digital age Wednesday, May 11, 1999 By Liz Garone STAFF WRITER REDWOOD CITY Engineer John L. Sullivan mentored Sequoia High School senior Martin Sesara, who helped wire two elementary school classrooms for the Internet. But mentoring sessions between Sullivan and Sesara didn't include meeting face-to-face, like in traditional mentor programs. The two traded questions and answers by e-mail. For Sullivan, like other busy professionals who want to help students but lack the time for personal meetings, "telementoring" carries attractive benefits: no commute and a commitment of only two e-mails per week. "I have little enough time at home with my own kids," said the 34-year-old Sullivan, who had a mentor while going to Stanford University. "I'm already oversubscribed, and I thought e-mail wouldn't be as big of a disruption." The HP Telementoring Program, started in Colorado in 1995 with a handful of students, has grown to 1,000 students for the 1998-1999 school year and is in five countries. David Neils, director of the International Telementoring Center, projects 10,000 students involved by the year 2003. In San Mateo County, five Redwood City fifth-graders sought to understand magnetism and three high school students, including Sesara, wired classrooms for Internet use this year both with the e-mail guidance of Hewlett-Packard employees in Santa Rosa.

From Office to Classroom Actuaries Spark Students' Love of Math By Linda Heacox One day a month, a class full of Boston school children in one of the worst drug- and gang-infested neighborhoods in the city wait excitedly for the arrival of a group of buttoned-down professionals from the city's business district. In Atlanta, the retired founder of one of the world's largest consulting firms packs up his briefcase with math toys and games and heads to a local elementary school each week. In Los Angeles, an actuary at one of the state's largest health insurance providers powers up his PC to tutor, via computer, children in Chino, Calif. In Appleton, Wis., high school students are learning the basics of personal money management from actuary volunteers who visit their schools. And in rural Alberta, Canada, students in the far-flung regions of the province open a crate packed with math games, toys, books, and curricula. Similar scenes are occurring in city and rural schools in other parts of North America as actuaries apply their professional expertise to real life problems. All of these math education programs are funded by the Actuarial Foundation, and though the organization has contributed nearly $370,000 to schools, its most important contribution may be the volunteers who work one-on-one with students, teachers, and parents. The program, Advancing Student Achievement, is the first and largest of the Foundation's public outreach programs. In it, actuaries tutor, teach classes, coach teams of kids participating in math competitions, and mentor children who need scholastic, and sometimes personal, guidance.

SEARCH STORIES: Navigation June 11, 2004 Virtual Volunteer The Osgood File (CBS Radio Network): 8/15/97 Printer-friendly version E-mail this story to a friend Making a difference in the lives of children one email at a time. Participants in the Presidential Summit of 1997 called on Americans to volunteer to improve the lives of children. However, only about five percent of people actually give their time as mentors or tutors to kids. A partnership between Hewlett Packard and elementary schools aims to change that. Hewlett Packard's email e-mentoring program is one of many "virtual volunteering" programs springing up across the country, allowing adults to tutor a children over the Internet using email. Hewlett Packard's mentoring program links employees with over 1500 students. One such program is takes place at Schallenberger Elementary School in San Jose, California. Under a teacher's supervision, virtual volunteers spend approximately 30 minutes a week mentoring fifth through 12th graders in primarily math and science. The benefit to the tutor is obvious – it allows the adult to mentor on his or her own time, from home or work, any time of the day, sometimes for just a few minutes a day. Mentors also help students see the relevance that their coursework has to potential future careers. Jill Prober, a teacher at Schallenberger, says adult involvement either via the Internet or face- to-face, benefits her students. Critics, however, contend that this virtual relationship is not enough. Nora Silver, the San Francisco delegate to the Presidential Summit in April of 1998, is not sure that virtual volunteering is the answer to the Presidential Summit's call to change the lives of children. She feels that an online relationship does not substitute or answer the need for adult mentors for children.
