Abstract

The purpose of this study was to determine the impact of peer mentoring strategies on the professional development of teachers in elementary schools. This research uses a case study. There are 15 schools as research objects consisting of Private Elementary Schools, State Elementary Schools, and Islamic Elementary Schools. Data collection techniques were carried out through observation, documents, and questionnaires. Data analysis was carried out in two stages, namely (1) analysis of single or individual case data and (2) analysis of cross-case data. Checking the validity of the data in this study using the theory of Lincoln and Guba consists of 4 steps: credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. The results of the study indicate that the peer mentoring system has had an impact on increasing competencies that are relevant to current needs. Professional development has been built with close partnerships with colleagues, building innovations in teaching and learning, and scheduled mentoring management. Professional development through the peer mentoring process has had an impact on increasing teacher competency qualifications including pedagogic, personality, social and professional which has been described in the Teacher and Lecturer Law no. 14 of 2005.
