Develop next generation of researchers through effective mentoring. Mentoring models: 1. Dyadic: traditional one-on-one mentor-mentee relationship. 2. Team mentoring: multiple mentors with different expertise areas. 3. Peer mentoring: lateral relationships between researchers at similar career stages. 4. Group mentoring: mentor works with cohort of mentees simultaneously. Mentoring competencies: 1. Research skills: methodology, analysis, writing, grant writing. 2. Professional development: networking, career planning, work-life balance. 3. Personal support: confidence building, resilience, identity development. Structure and process: 1. Goal setting: specific, measurable objectives for mentoring relationship. 2. Regular meetings: monthly face-to-face or virtual meetings with agenda. 3. Progress monitoring: quarterly reviews of goal achievement and relationship satisfaction. 4. Feedback: bidirectional feedback on mentoring effectiveness. Training programs: 1. Mentor training: active listening, giving feedback, cultural competence. 2. Mentee training: goal setting, communication, relationship management. Evaluation: surveys, focus groups, career outcome tracking for evidence-based improvement.

Plan a Tier 2 reading intervention for a small group of 3rd graders. Target Skill: Reading fluency. Group Size: 4-5 students. Frequency: 3 times a week for 30 minutes. Structure: 1. Warm-up (5 mins): Practice sight words with flashcards. 2. Modeling (5 mins): Teacher models fluent reading of a short, instructional-level passage, emphasizing prosody and pacing. 3. Choral Reading (5 mins): Teacher and students read the passage aloud together. 4. Partner Reading (10 mins): Students take turns reading the passage to a partner. Teacher provides feedback. 5. Progress Monitoring (5 mins): Once a week, conduct a 1-minute timed reading of a new passage to track words correct per minute (WCPM). Graph progress to show growth. Intervention should be systematic and data-driven.

Deploy with Kubernetes. Concepts: 1. Pods as deployment units. 2. Deployments for replica management. 3. Services for networking. 4. ConfigMaps and Secrets for config. 5. Namespaces for isolation. 6. Ingress for HTTP routing. 7. Resource limits and requests. 8. Health and readiness probes. Use kubectl and YAML manifests. Implement rolling updates and rollbacks. Monitor with Prometheus.
