== my first thoughts ==
Good Start!
I suggest changing the list of different sim types to PG, Mature, and Adult, to reflect their progressive raitings.
Communications section:
The distinction between Conference chat and group chat is not clear. Suggested change:
Chatting with several people privatly: Conference chat,
Chatting with many people publically: Group Chat,
To the basic skills, I suggest adding the following:
Using chat short-cuts: gestures,
Talking in world: Voice Chat,
Finding where I belong: joining groups,
How do I find stuff? Search,
Changing appearance: ATTATCHMENTS,
Gestures are important only because we've all seen new folks running around shouting "GET LOST!" and having no clue why or how.
It touched on several Mentor specific skill sets, such as the Wiki resources, but as this is an over-view, adding some more skills would be important. Some suggestions are:
Creating gestures for teaching,
Notecards for teaching,
Mentor groups and their uses, including chat ettiquette.

Feedback

OK, folks, season's open. Shoot me full of holes on this one, please. O 01:05, 16 March 2009 (UTC)

This is good, don't forget most new residents spend abetter part of their time on HI's in Appearance Mode. Explaining how to control the Camera, I find is always a big help.—The preceding unsigned comment was added on 00:53, 16 March 2009 by Skate Foss
Promised to leave feedback, so here it is :-)
I'd add "Mature" to "Know the definition of PG and Adult sims".
I also think it would be good to know the acronyms (in case there's explanation needed) but to avoid their usage (or only use with explanation - like: "Welcome to Second Life (SL)").
Also good: "Know basic Mac shortcuts" (always famous: right click: ⌘ CMD + Click).
+ "Know how to switch the language of the User Interface".
Think it contains a pretty good set of basic skills needed for mentoring. People who got these skills should do a nice job welcomeing new Residents :-)

my first thoughts

Good Start!

I suggest changing the list of different sim types to PG, Mature, and Adult, to reflect their progressive raitings.

Communications section: The distinction between Conference chat and group chat is not clear. Suggested change: Chatting with several people privatly: Conference chat,

Chatting with many people publically: Group Chat,

To the basic skills, I suggest adding the following:

Using chat short-cuts: gestures,

Talking in world: Voice Chat,

Finding where I belong: joining groups,

How do I find stuff? Search,

Changing appearance: ATTATCHMENTS,

Gestures are important only because we've all seen new folks running around shouting "GET LOST!" and having no clue why or how.

It touched on several Mentor specific skill sets, such as the Wiki resources, but as this is an over-view, adding some more skills would be important. Some suggestions are:

Creating gestures for teaching, Notecards for teaching, Mentor groups and their uses, including chat ettiquette.
