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
