Telementoring Orchestrator 1.0
Kevin O'Neill has been researching online mentoring for years. His lab at Simon Fraser has developed Telemontoring Orchestrator, a web app that supports mentoring at a distance. It's a free download, but requires you host your own server.
Telementoring Orchestrator is a server-side web application, designed to aid any sort of organization (a corporation, university, school or nonprofit society) in efficiently organizing and monitoring on-line mentoring relationships. Because Telementoring Orchestrator works on the web, mentors and mentees do not need to be in the same location. Wherever expertise is and wherever it is needed, Telementoring Orchestrator can work with you to maximize its potential. Meanwhile, the system reduces administrative overhead so that organizations can afford to provide the oversight necessary to make their programs effective.
