Service Learning Student Evaluation Requirements

As an integral part of the learning experience, the student will be regularly evaluating what he or she is doing. In some instances, the student is required to maintain a reflective journal outlining experiences, feelings, key insights, perceptions, revelations and accomplishments. The student may request your comments.

The student will also be required to keep a Log of Hours that must be verified by the student's supervisor. A copy of the form is included for your records.

Your evaluation of the student is extremely important. A sample Student Progress Report form is also included, but the student will provide you with the actual evaluation forms and the dates they are due.

The number of times you are requested to evaluate the student will depend upon the nature of the assignment; however, a mid-semester and final evaluation are usually required. Timely completion of the evaluation form is important as the student is receiving academic credit based on your evaluation. Please give one copy to the student, one copy to the faculty and one to the Service-Learning Office (can be faxed to 822-2239), and keep one copy for your own records.
