Hello Mentors!

To quote Jeska Linden from the recent Community Roundtable Meeting she said, "Also, I'd love to see Mentors do more self-organizing - with an ever growing group, it becomes ever harder for LL to 'manage'."

So I thought why not take the initive and self-organize! :D A great way to do this would be to have a "self-organized" Mentor meeting. Here is what I had in mind...

Monday, November 7th at 12:00pm SLT & 6:00pm SLT.

Brampton (0,255) Town Hall Main Seating - This is a 4-corner area of Brampton, Borrowdale, Pooley and Seascale.

The two different meeting times of course is to accommodate as many people as possible due to world time zones and work schedules.

Please reply to this thread with any topics you would like to see discussed. Some examples:
  1. Trying to get an up to date version of some type of "New Resident Welcome Pack" that we can hand out.
  2. When is it okay to use the Mentor Group IM? Hopefully reaching some consensus on what are good reasons to send out a message.
  3. Working in cooperation with SL Greeters to give the new resident the best possible welcome experience. (i.e., "handing off" a new resident to a Greeter for a tour, shopping spree etc., when we are busy or logging out.)
I hope many of you will have the opportunity to attend and that we will be able to get to know one another and exchange helpful information. See you there!

*sneaks into the thread*

I'll be at the meeting as well - I'd like to discuss ways to help you self-organize, since there are so many more of you than there are of me. Also, I'd like to talk about the new "Help Island" idea that we are working on at LL and get your feedback on it!

I would like to discuss the role of a mentor. What is expected of us? It seems to be that the other helping groups have clear defined roles. The greeters are there to show a spot or two. The Live Help is there for questions. The Instructors and Educators teach on a subject. Are mentors the catch-all of helpers? What is our role envisioned as, and what are we actually doing?

I would like to discuss all of these questions in this meeting. I hope I am able to attend.
