My questions:

• How does this kind of mentoring compare to POW or T2T mentoring?

• What use could you make of this in your classrooms? How would we have to change it to make it useful to you?

• What is the value of a response from a doctor, compared to an answer found in the archives?

• Can students be doctors? Could you imagine setting up a local version at your school, or in your school system?
