SERVICE-LEARNING/CLINICAL EXPERIENCE PACKET

Early Childhood Education Program

The Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) requires that all students pursuing a teacher education degree complete clinical experiences throughout the program. For the purpose of the School of Education (SOE) at MDC, service-learning/clinical experience hours is defined as a “teaching and learning strategy that integrates meaningful community service with instruction and reflection to enrich the learning experience, teach civic responsibility, and strengthen communities” (http://www.fldoe.org/family/whatis.asp).

Following Miami Dade College School of Education, Early Childhood Education (ECE) program, students enrolled in lower division courses must complete a minimum of twenty (20) face-to-face service-learning/clinical experience hours at Early Childhood Educational centers approved by the School of Education and accredited by NAEYC. These classroom settings must represent diverse populations where the Florida Educator Accomplished Practices (FEAPs), the Sunshine State Standards, and the Florida Educator Competencies are evident. Students are expected to systematically observe and analyze information in the field settings as well as to participate and assist with any activity benefiting the learners and the community, while reflecting on the introduced FEAPs and their application to each particular course.

All students participating in service-learning/clinical experience hours for these EEC courses should visit the web- based application system at www.mdc.edu/iCED for instructions and documentation requirements. This system is

managed by the INSTITUTE FOR CIVIC ENGAGEMENT AND DEMOCRACY (iCED) and students need to contact

Students must be sure to document their service-learning/clinical experiences by completing all required documentation: the Service-Learning Contract, Hour Report/Evaluation Form. They are also required to evaluate the program by completing an online Student Satisfaction survey. No student will receive a passing grade without having completed the service-learning/clinical experience hour requirement and submitting the required documentation on time. (See pp. 15-17)

*** IMPORTANT NOTES ***

1. Service-learning/clinical experience WILL NOT be allowed outside of Miami-Dade County.

2. Fingerprinting MUST be done immediately upon registering for courses with service

hours. Once cleared, students will be notified via their MDC e-mail address to pick up their cards at the InterAmerican Campus. If you have any questions regarding the clearance card, please refer to the Fingerprinting Packet.

Dear Early Childhood Education Faculty, The Institute for Civic Engagement and Democracy (iCED) welcomes the opportunity to partner with you and your students for their service-learning requirement. All students who are not presently working in a pre-school must meet the Florida field placement requirement through service-learning. The mission of iCED: “Transforming learning, strengthening democracy and contributing meaningfully to the common good by awakening and empowering students for lifelong civic engagement.” Early Childhood Education students who are working in a pre-school are not required to complete the service-learning hours for their lower division Early Childhood Education courses. However, they must complete the employment verification form on page 9 in the ECE Service-Learning Packet and it needs to be signed by the site administrator or Center’s Director. All other ECE regular students must meet their service-learning requirements by following the procedures in the ECE Service- Learning Packet. Service-Learning:

Is a method whereby students learn and develop through active participation in thoughtfully organized service that is conducted in and meets the needs of communities;

Helps foster civic responsibility; Is integrated into and enhances the academic curriculum; Provides structured time for students to reflect on service experience.

What is Reflection? The process of deriving meaning from experience:

Conscious, intentional, and critical thinking about the service experience; Reflection is what makes service SERVICE-LEARNING.

Effective Reflection:

Is structured, guided, purposeful; Is a regularly occurring activity; Includes components that can be evaluated based on well-defined criteria; Bridges service and course objectives; Includes private and public reflection; Furthers appreciation of diversity.

Civic Responsibility:

Active participation in the public life of a community in an informed, committed, and constructive manner, with focus on the common good.

Field experience is the umbrella under which your service-learning falls. All ECE School of Education students are required to have field experience whether it is through employment in a preschool or through service-learning (SL) hours in an approved accredited preschool.

iCED is available to support and provide services for your class(es), such as:

Assisting with web-based registration procedures; Processing your students’ Contracts and Hour Report/Evaluation Forms;

Page 5: Office of Student Internship & Clinical Experience Service...Fall, 2016 Office of Student Internship & Clinical Experience SERVICE-LEARNING/CLINICAL EXPERIENCE PACKET Early Childhood

6. Verify list of students participating in service-learning upon receipt of Status Reports; 7. Supervise flow of Contracts & Hour Report/Evaluation Forms to your campus’ iCED office. Only original forms will be
