Описание: A timeless book of lessons on mentorship, teaching, and learning from New York Times bestselling author Tim Gunn, host of the Emmy Award-nominated Project Runway and the reality show Under the Gunn. Tim Gunn, America's favorite reality TV cohost, is known for his kind but firm approach in providing wisdom, guidance, and support to the scores of design hopefuls on Project Runway. Having begun his fashion career as a teacher at Parsons The New School for Design, Tim knows more than a thing or two about mentorship and how to convey invaluable pearls of wisdom in an approachable, accessible manner. While Gunn's Golden Rules showcased Tim "as life coach," imparting lessons based on his personal experiences, Tim Gunn: The Natty Professor will focus on Tim "as teacher." Divided into sections on common themes--truth-telling, empathy, asking, cheerleading, and hoping for the best--this practical, timely book takes us on a journey through life lessons and uses Tim's own personal experiences, from the classroom to the therapist's office, to illustrate larger concepts. Says Bette Midler of Tim Gunn: The Natty Professor, "This book is as smart and fashionable as Tim Gunn himself, and it's teeming with surprising, moving, and often hilarious stories about teaching, learning, and life. I loved it!" So grab a pencil and start taking notes: class is officially in session!

Описание: An in-depth examination of the novel ways young people support and learn from each other though participation in online fanfiction communities.
Over the past twenty years, amateur fanfiction writers have published an astonishing amount of fiction in online repositories. More than 1.5 million enthusiastic fanfiction writers--primarily young people in their teens and twenties--have contributed nearly seven million stories and more than 176 million reviews to a single online site, Fanfiction.net. In this book, Cecilia Aragon and Katie Davis provide an in-depth examination of fanfiction writers and fanfiction repositories, finding that these sites are not shallow agglomerations and regurgitations of pop culture but rather online spaces for sophisticated and informal learning. Through their participation in online fanfiction communities, young people find ways to support and learn from one another.
Aragon and Davis term this novel system of interactive advice and instruction distributed mentoring, and describe its seven attributes, each of which is supported by an aspect of networked technologies: aggregation, accretion, acceleration, abundance, availability, asynchronicity, and affect. Employing an innovative combination of qualitative and quantitative analyses, they provide an in-depth ethnography, reporting on a nine-month study of three fanfiction sites, and offer a quantitative analysis of lexical diversity in the 61.5 billion words on the Fanfiction.net site. Going beyond fandom, Aragon and Davis consider how distributed mentoring could improve not only other online learning platforms but also formal writing instruction in schools.

Harness the Power of Mentoring: How to Find and Work With the Right Mentor--A Guide for the Solopreneur. Imagine being a successful solopreneur Although most people have the drive and passion, few have the full set of personal attributes, skills, and experience that running a business requires. That's the main reason more than half of all small business start-ups fail in their first five years of operation. This tells us that what small business owners need is help from someone who has 'been there, done that.' Someone who can help them plan their entrepreneurial journey, gain confidence, mature in their thinking and decision making, learn from mistakes: a mentor. No-one needs that help more than the solopreneur, who is someone in business on their own, a special type of business person. They differ from other entrepreneurs in many key areas: business practices, mindset, and objectives, to name a few. They prefer to work alone and often don't intend to add anyone else to the business. They tend to focus on perfecting their skill as specialists. If they don't do it, it doesn't get done. Harness the Power of Mentoring speaks directly to the solopreneur.
It makes sense that most solopreneurs are in dire need of a mentor, but not just any mentor. They need mentors who understand the special case of the solopreneur. This concise and practical book is the first to provide guidance to the solopreneur so that they too can benefit from the right mentor, one who understands their special needs and can help them achieve their goals. You will discover what makes a solopreneur different from conventional entrepreneurs in their mindset, attitude, goals, and business practices; how to find the right mentor for you; how to plan your mentorship and business concept; how to have difficult--crucial--conversations with your mentor; how to evaluate your progress; and how to know when it is time to move on.
This book is the first of four books in The Business Mentoring Solution Series that focus on mentoring the solopreneur and is complemented by an accompanying Planner/Journal and 'Tips' booklet.
