Field Experience

Presented by: Dana E. Krauss

When to use Field Experience

• Tie students to a:• Course• Field experience site (school, hospital, etc.)• Preceptor/Cooperating teaching/Mentor

• Send students a field experience binder• Establish a binder work flow from

students to their instructor and site supervisor• Use placements and binder assessments

for accreditation and reporting

Getting Ready• Establishing Field Experience at your university will

take time and effort

• Product Consultants and Administrators work together to configure the module (this process can take several months)

• Start with a group of Early Implementers before expanding to the entire campus

Considerations• Import data to Tk20• Sites• Site staff• Student placement info

• Review current process• Establish a work flow• Create the binders• Training students, faculty, and site staff• Implement FE gradually – start small• Assembling help resources

…but then why should I use it?

• The first few semesters require the most time and effort (because it’s a new process), but the more you use it, the more time you save

• Site supervisors can submit their data online

• Students can reuse artifacts for FE binders in a presentation portfolio

• Centralized data collection for accreditation and reporting
