Abstract

This study reports on a project that adopted a social constructivist approach and SMART goals to develop a successful peer-teaching mentoring program to enhance year ten students' leadership growth and year six students' connectedness to their school and peers. Doran (1981, p. 16) developed the SMART goals approach as a guided process to develop a project's desired goal. The SMART goals, S-Specific, M-Measurable, A-Achievable, R-Relevant, and T-Timely, were used to develop the pedagogical artifacts for the peer-teaching mentoring program and facilitate sharing knowledge, skills, and experience. The study used the SMART goals to map the developing stages. It was divided into three stages: 1. developing the characteristics and pedagogical artifacts, 2. preparing the program with the school, and 3. developing surveys and interview questions for data collection and future program analysis. The paper argues that using the SMART goals can help articulate and develop pedagogical tools on peer-teaching mentoring models that address the essential stages and characteristics for facilitating the sharing of knowledge, skills, and experience.
