Abstract
The purpose of the initial phase of Project METAS, which we report here, was to evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of an online mentor training workshop for bilingual education/ESL teachers. Sample comprised 5 bilingual education teachers. This action research had a pre-test/post-test design with post-survey featuring repeated measures. Other data were journal entries for module activities complete, a mid- and final-meta-analysis, and videos demonstrating a problem-solving activity focused on one of three approaches: math, engineering or inventive thinking. Feasibility and efficacy were supported by the successful completion of the demonstration videos and participant comments.
