The research is to study the incentives of elementary school mentors. The ma
in aim is to understand the needs of incentives for mentors and to plan a spec
ific incentive program of mentoring system. By means of documentary analysis,
questionnaire and interview, the thesis is completed. There are 399 sample fo
r questionnaire and 22 sample for interview. After analysis and discussion, fi
ve conclusions as follows: 1. The new function of mentoring is thought much of
the teacher education policy in force, but the mentoring system is still has
same problems.2. Teachers had less willingness to be mentors when there is no
suitable incentives, and colleges of education could not get suitable practici
ng schools easily, either.3. Providing professional training programs, plannin
g job promotion, reducing teacher''s task or giving stipend can be the incentiv
es for elementary school mentors. But the recognition for mentors can not moti
vate mentors easily. 4. The Ministry of Education should legislate laws about
incentives and budget for mentors to practice it. According to the findings
and results, there are some suggestions from the study: The first suggestion
s are about the incentives for mentors:1. Plan the incentive and evaluation sy
stem for mentors. If the teacher career ladder system is taken into account, m
entors should be taken into one level of the system.2. Provide diverse incenti
ves to satisfy mentors'' needs.3. There are two kinds of suggestions for educat
ional administration. One is to provide incentives according to circumstances;
the other is to supply finance and praising the excellent practicing schools
and mentors.4. There are three kinds of suggestions for colleges of education.
The first is providing training opportunities or teaching resources. The seco
nd is developing professional curriculum for mentors. The third is helping pra
cticing schools about mentoring and school-based development.5. There are two
kinds of suggestions for practicing schools. One is raising the opportunities
of job promotion for mentors and the other is condensing the power of teachers
and mentoring team.6. There are two kinds of suggestions for mentors: mentors
should get some resources and consultants voluntarily and mentors should have
a concept about "evaluation is the method of advancing teachers'' professional
development".7. Plan an ideal mentoring system and publicize the rights and d
uties of mentors.8. According to the progress of mentors, plan a concrete ince
ntives program. The second suggestion is for future study:1.Study on the facto
rs of being mentors and the questions of mentoring efficiency.2. Study on the
evaluation of mentoring.3. Progress the follow-up studies about incentives pro
gram.
