This is due week 3 of your first fall semester. If these forms are not completed the student will not be able to participate in any course related activities that involve patient/ client contact in or out of the classroom.2.14 Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)The School of Allied Health Professions seeks to comply with Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 and the Americans with Disabilities Act by providing reasonable accommodations to students with documented disabilities. Students must register with the Office of Student Affairs to request disability-related accommodations, and are responsible for providing documentation of a disability. Costs associated with documentation of a disability are the responsibility of the student.For further information contact Melissa Greaves: 318.813.2908 HYPERLINK "mailto:mgreav@lsuhsc.edu" mgreav@lsuhsc.eduStudents with identified disabilities are strongly encouraged to initiate a discussion with the AFWC during the second semester of the program to discuss their needs for accommodations within the FW settings. This should allow sufficient time for the student to become well informed of his/her rights and to determine if and what information s/he wishes to disclose to the FE. If a student would like to request ADA accommodations for FW, the appropriate documents must be submitted. This document may be found: may not ask for accommodations once the FW placement has begun. The FW courses will not provide accommodations without prior knowledge. Students who choose not to disclose such information may be in jeopardy of failing.2.15 Cost of FieldworkStudents financially assume the costs that accompany all FW experiences. The cost includes full tuition per FW course and all other site-specific fees. Additional expenses may consist of: housing, meals, transportation, travel, parking, materials for projects, scrubs, uniforms, etc. The LSU HEALTH web page has the specific tuition/fee schedule for each semester: Professional Appearance Students are required to dress as designated by the assigned fieldwork facility. In the absence of a facility dress code, the OT Program dress code is in effect at all times that the student is in the fieldwork facility. In all instances the student must wear a name badge. Full-length pants must meet malleoli. Axilla must be covered. Undergarments must be worn and may not be visible. No facial piercings or jewelry. Tattoos covered at all times. Excellent personal hygiene is expected including hair, facial hair and nails: no longer than ? inch; no artificial nails. Hair must be pulled back and out of face and eyes. Chewing gum or tobacco is strictly prohibited.2.17 Social NetworkingMany potential employers go to social networking sites to see what you have posted. It is important that you avoid posts or photos on Facebook, Twitter, etc. about your FW experiences. Here are some specifics:1. Please do not ask any of your FE to “friend” you. This puts everyone in an awkward situation. If you mutually decide to do this after the FW, that is a personal choice.2. Do not list names of supervisors, comments or criticism about sites.3. It is a HIPAA violation if you mention a client with enough information that the person might be identified. The consequences for violations, as you know, are severe. For more information: Computer UseComputers are to be used for professional work/school. Checking personal email is strictly prohibited.2.19 Electronic CommunicationElectronic communications devices (cellular phones, beepers, hand-held computers, blackberry’s, iPods, pagers, etc.) must be silenced and not used (including text messaging) during all FW experiences.Phones and pagers are considered distractions to the learning environment. They should be turned off and out of sight during all learning experiences. Appropriate accommodations will be considered if the student notifies the AFWC and FW educator of any extenuating circumstances.2.20 Fieldwork CancellationA FW site may need to cancel a confirmed placement. If a cancellation occurs, the AFWC will notify the student. The AFWC and student will discuss alternative options and reschedule the FW experience.2.21 PregnancyIf a student is or becomes pregnant while enrolled in the OT academic courses, she must notify the AFWC immediately. This is necessary so the student can plan for and make decisions for course completion. Any student who is pregnant will be required to have a letter from her physician stating she is capable of assuming the normal clinical duties of an MOT student. 2.22 Accident ReportsIn the event of an accident, personal injury, or injury to a client while on fieldwork or at an off-campus site for another class, the student will report the accident or injury to her/his immediate supervisor at the site and complete the necessary paperwork for that organization. In addition, the student will notify the LSU AFWC immediately.2.23 Vacation Days are not permittedThe LSU HEALTH-S academic holidays do not apply to FW students. Do not plan family trips, weddings or other scheduled holidays to interrupt a FW experience or to closely coincide with the expected completion date of the FW course. 2.24 ACOTE Attendance RequirementsThe Standards for an Accredited Educational Program for the Occupational Therapist require a total of 24 weeks of Fieldwork II. Students are required to be in attendance during the hours that their FE works. Actual days of the week and exact number of hours of work per week will vary, depending on the schedule of the FE to whom the student is assigned. Students should plan on each rotation including a 40 hour work week, with several hours each evening devoted to reflection, research, and preparation for the next day. The Monday through Friday 8 hour work day is mandatory and any modification of this time must be approved by the AFWC.2.25 Attendance During Fieldwork ExperiencesThe LSUHEALTH-S catalog policy: “Students are expected to attend all scheduled course-related class meetings, clinical and laboratory sessions in each course. Excessive absence, regardless of the cause thereof, may be construed as sufficient reason for considering a student as academically deficient. Determination of the number of absences which may be interpreted as excessive is determined separately by each program.”The AFWC and FE must be notified in writing of any request for an excused absence. Excused absence: illness, accident, medical emergency, or death in the immediate family.? Immediate family includes grandparents, parents, siblings, spouse, children, and in-laws.? ?Absences or loss of time beyond two days during each 12-week FW II must be made up. Students will work a 40 hour week and upon completion of each FW II a total of 470 hours must be met. Absences cannot exceed 2 days without make-up. School districts or state and federal agencies may have additional holidays which, along with illness, count toward two days of absence.Unexcused absence: an absence which does not meet the definition of excused absence. Unexcused absences are unacceptable. Any time missed must be made up. Violation of this policy may result in a failing grade for the course.2.26 LSU HEALTH and AOTA’s Ethical StandardsStudents are responsible for learning about and upholding the ethical standards of the LSU Health-S pertaining to research, as well as the ethical standards of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) encompassed in the AOTA Code of Ethics. It is imperative that students take these responsibilities seriously as evidence of a serious breach in research ethics or in the AOTA Code of Ethics may precipitate immediate dismissal of a student from the program. Students are also directed to the AOTA Code of Ethics. This code includes occupational therapy students in its definition of personnel and is based on seven principles, each of which bears implications for student conduct. ().2.27 LSU HEALTH-S E-MailA large portion of communication with students happens through the LSU HEALTH-S email, not your personal e-mail accounts. Students are expected to check their LSU e-mail regularly, and to keep their mailboxes “clean” so that efficient communication between students and AFWC can take place. If e-mail cannot be delivered to a student due to a full e-mail box, the AFWC is not responsible for attempts to deliver the communication.2.28 Electronic DevicesElectronic communications devices (cellular phones, beepers, hand-held computers, blackberry’s, iPods, pagers, etc.) must be silenced and not used (including text messaging) during all fieldwork experiences.2.29 Inclement WeatherStudents are responsible to plan ahead for travel needs during inclement weather. Unless the assigned fieldwork placement is closed due to inclement weather, the student is expected to report to their FW site. If the assigned FW site is closed due to inclement weather, the student is required to make up these missed days. (Weekends or extend FW dates). The AFWC must be notified with number of missed days and the plan of action to make-up the missed days. Closure of LSU Health-S due to inclement weather does not relieve the student of the responsibility to report for duty.2.30 The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)FERPA affords students certain rights with respect to the educational records. The LSU Health-S Student Handbook, (page 8) further defines this policy and procedure.SECTION 3. FIELDWORK I (FW I)3.1 Purpose of FW I The ACOTE Standards for FW I explain that the goal is to “introduce students to the FW experience, to apply knowledge to practice, and to develop understanding of the needs of clients”. This experience offers students the opportunity to translate theory into practice, and enriches the didactic coursework through directed observation and participation in selected aspects of the occupational therapy process (ACOTE C.1.8). OT services in a variety of settings with a variety of populations are offered. The concepts of occupation-based practice, client-centered practice, evidence-based practice and adaptation across the lifespan are supported by the FW experience.FW I introduces the MOTS to a variety of settings in which OT’s work. FW I experiences are designed in a developmental learning continuum. Each course builds on the previous, moving from simple to complex with the learning activities. FW I educators are qualified occupational therapists (ACOTE C.1.9). These FW I experiences will occur in conjunction with the curriculum (i.e. FW I in pediatrics while taking pediatric course). FW I placements are made by the AFWC. The course learning objectives are compiled by the course instructor. The AFWC and course instructor discuss these objectives to coordinate the FW I sites that best meet these objectives. The AFWC will coordinate these objectives with the individual site and FE. The FE’s are in agreement with the plan set by the AFWC and course instructor prior to the MOTS placement.FW I experiences are selected each semester based on the course objectives and site’s ability to carry out the specific academic and clinical requirements. At a minimum, students will complete 24 hours in an outpatient orthopedic site, 40 hours in a pediatric site, 40 hours in an adult rehabilitation site, and 40 hours in an older adult site that has as its focus psychological and social factors that influence the engagement in occupation. (ACOTE C.1.7)The course instructor will facilitate discussions and design class assignments to support the course objectives, listed on the syllabi. The FE will evaluate the student in the areas of clinical application of knowledge, professional behavior, observation skills, and performance skills. The final grade from this experience, assignments, and classroom participation will be given by the course instructor.3.2 MOTS Evaluation of the FW I Site (FW WIKI)The MOTS will evaluate the FW I SITE and FE using the LSU OT Program SEFWE for FW I. The MOTS will review this form with the FE after the FE has given the MOTS their evaluation. Both will sign and the MOTS will bring back to the AFWC. (ACOTE C.1.10) 3.3 FW Educator Evaluation of the MOTS (FW WIKI)The MOTS is evaluated by the FE using the LSU OT Program Evaluation Form. On the last day of the FW I, the FE will review this document with the MOTS and both will sign. The MOTS will bring the evaluation form to the AFWC in the envelope provided by the AFWC, with the FE’s signature on the envelope seal.The student must receive a score of at least "3" in all areas to pass FW I. If a student does not receive a score of "3", then the AFWC and MOTS will develop a remediation plan. The MOTS is responsible for scheduling a meeting with the AFWC and collaborating on a plan for improvement which addresses the identified areas. (ACOTE C.1.10)SECTION 4.

During FW II experiences, students are introduced to the responsibility of evaluation, intervention, and management of OT services for their own clients. FW II placements are designed to develop competent, entry-level, generalist occupational therapists. The goal of FW II is to provide an in-depth experience in OT services that supports the curriculum design, with a focus on client-centered and evidence-based practice, as well as ethical decision-making. The student will be exposed to a variety of occupational therapy practice sites serving clients experiencing a variety of physical and psychosocial occupational performance issues across the life span, and will be challenged to support their clients in achieving quality of life through occupation. The Program in OT follows AOTA’s suggested FW II dates: . International FW experiences are not available at this time, per the policy of the LSU HEALTH-S Legal Affairs Department. The AFWC ensures that each MOTS is supervised by a currently licensed occupational therapist who has a minimum of 1 year full-time of practice experience subsequent to the initial certification and who is adequately prepared to serve as an FE. The AFWC conducts pre-fieldwork, on-campus seminars each semester to transition the MOTS into FW II by reviewing the general procedures and expectations. FW II placements are discussed with each MOTS individually to best match student learning with site expectations. The request to the FE/FW site is made only by the AFWC. The AFWC monitors student progress by contacting both the MOTS and FE at midterm. Students are required to complete a written discussion form prior to the phone conversation or group call with the AFWC. The FE evaluates the MOTS at mid-term and upon completion of the rotation using AOTA’s FWPE. Enrollment in the two FW II courses (OCCT 6911 and OCCT 6913) follows successful completion of all other academic requirements of the occupational therapy curriculum. During the FW II courses, the MOTS transitions into the role of student occupational therapist. Students actively participate in all aspects of the delivery of occupational therapy services, from referral to screening/evaluation/intervention and discontinuation of services. Emphasis is placed on the use of occupation that is purposeful and meaningful to clients and is based on evidence. Clinical reasoning and reflective practice skills are developed, as well as the values and beliefs that guide ethical practice and the development of professionalism. MOTS’s are also exposed to various aspects of administration and management of occupational therapy services. Student learning outcomes are generalized outcomes that guide the FW experience, and are complemented by the specific objectives and activities that reflect the uniqueness of each FW placement.Each rotation is a full-time, 12-week placement, for a total of 24 weeks of FW II experience. Actual days of the week and exact number of hours of work per week will vary, depending on the schedule of the FE to whom the MOTS is assigned. Students should plan on each FW course including a 40 hour work week, which may include weekend days and holidays, with several hours devoted to reflection, research, and preparation each evening. Students are strongly advised to NOT maintain outside employment during this last critical phase of their professional preparation. Upon the successful completion of the final FW II rotation, the student is eligible to sit for the national certification examination and to apply for licensure to practice as an occupational therapist. At this point, students have transitioned through the roles of occupational therapy student to student occupational therapist to entry-level occupational therapist.4.3 FW II Participants Roles and Responsibilities FW education is accomplished through the collaborative efforts of the AFWC, FE and MOTS. The following is a brief description of the roles and responsibilities of each.Academic Fieldwork Coordinator (AFWC)The AFWC is the faculty member responsible for the program’s compliance with Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education FW education requirements Section C (C.1.0 - C.1.19). The AFWC is responsible for the development and monitoring of the FW education program. Responsibilities include, but are not limited to:Ensure that the FW program strengthens/supports the curriculum design and student learning outcomes. C.1.11 FW is designed to promote clinical reasoning and reflective practice, to transmit the values and beliefs that enable ethical practice, and to develop professionalism and competence in career responsibilities.Document process for FW site selection. Maintain MOU’s and review periodically. Collaborate with the FW site to update site objectives and site data forms.Update FW Manual and FW courses. Orientation of students to the purpose and process of FW expectations.Assignment of eligible students to FW and FW site paperwork.Midterm and as-needed communication with each MOTS and FE (email, phone, ).Reassignment of MOTS FW per departmental policies.Document FW supervision effectiveness: Student Evaluation of Fieldwork Experience (SEFWE).Document formal evaluation of student performance: AOTA Fieldwork Performance Evaluation for the Occupational Therapy Student (AOTA FWPE).Assignment of final grade for the FW courses.Collaborate with FE’s to develop instructional strategies: initial supervision is direct and then decreases to less supervision as appropriate for the setting; continuing education workshops, etc.Assist the MOTS and/or FE should concerns arise regarding the student’s performance, requirements of the fieldwork site, personality conflicts, etc. The AFWC is available to participate in telephone conferences or, if the site is within a “reasonable” drive from the University, the AFWC can attend an on-site conference. Fieldwork Educator (FE)The FE is a licensed OT who has a minimum of 1 year full-time practice experience subsequent to initial certification. The FW site may assign the administrative responsibilities to the FE or these responsibilities may be assigned to another FW site employee. The FE day-to-day supervisory responsibilities include, but are not limited to:Collaborates with AFWC in establishing FW objectives.Orientation of the student to pertinent departmental and organizational policies/ procedures and meetings/team rounds/conferences.Review with the MOTS: Learning objectives, learning expectations, projects and timelines. All documentation procedures and expectations. (evaluation, tx planning, discharge, billing).Model best practice with client-centered and evidence based at forefront.Assign clients with graded supervision matching the skill and clinical reasoning of the MOTS.Supervision of the student’s delivery of occupational therapy services, including documentation in all forms.Conduct regular supervisory meetings, mid-term evaluation and final evaluation using the municate student progress and evaluation results to AFWC at mid-term and the conclusion of the fieldwork experience, and at any time that concerns regarding the student’s performance may arise.Mails the original AOTA FWPE to AFWC when student has completed this FW II experience.FE’s provide learning opportunities to encourage students to transition classroom knowledge into the skills needed for entry-level practitioners. The FE is considered an important member of the education process. The AFWC offers seminars, resources and information to support best practice. FE’s clinical practice skills include competent/ ethical behavior; good communication skills and an understanding of the generational differences are key factors in site selection.The Program in OT encourages FE participation in national and state OT associations. Involvement with the OT program is done through on-site visits, telephone calls, email, etc. The AFWC initiates collaboration between the academic faculty and FE’s. This is accomplished through seminars, course laboratory experiences, lecture and discussion which review the academic curriculum and curriculum design and the FW site focus and scope of practice. Current practice trends, LSU HEALTH-S philosophy, mission and curriculum design is reviewed. Occupation-based practice, current trends and strategies for student learning are presented. Resources are provided to support best practice in FW.The FE must meet state regulations governing practice and referrals from qualified physicians and from others seeking service in the medical, educational and broader human services community. The supervision ratio is either a 1:1 or 1:2 between FE and student. The FE provides ongoing graded supervision, weekly meetings and formal valuations at midterm and at the conclusion of the FW II experience. The AOTA Fieldwork Performance Evaluation (FWPE) is the assessment completed by the FE regarding each MOTS 12 week placement. The AFWC communicates with the FE throughout each student FW II rotation via telephone, electronically and/or FW site visits to ensure entry-level performance is achieved. At midterm the AFWC contacts the student and FE to discuss progress. The AFWC provides resources to the FE to support the development of supervisory skills, articles, resources, in-services. For example, decreasing supervision as the student demonstrates increased competence and performance.MOT StudentThe student collaborates with the FE and AFWC to ensure that the requirements of the FW experience are met. The student’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to:The MOTS will email the FW II site six weeks prior to start date to confirm the dates, time and meeting location of first day. Included in this email is the MOTS Personal Data Sheet.Provide the FE proof of liability insurance, CPR certification, and immunizations, as well as any other documentation required by the placement (FW Portfolio).Comply with all policies/procedures of the fieldwork site, unless specifically ply with all aspects of the Academic Code of Conduct, as defined in the LSU HEALTH-S Student Policies.Promptly notify the FE of an absence. The MOTS will work all scheduled FW days, except in the case of unavoidable absences due to illness or death in the immediate family. Absences must be made up in a manner that is mutually agreeable to the FE, the MOTS and the AFWC.Conduct her/himself in a professional manner, at all times.Work the same hours as the FE, including weekends and holidays, unless otherwise determined by the FE and the AFWC.Fulfill all duties and assignments given by the FE and the AFWC within the specified time frame, unless otherwise exempted.Actively and appropriately participate in the supervisory process; receiving and reflecting on constructive feedback from the FE and modifying behaviors plete all assignments and from AFWC. This includes, but is not limited to active participation in , written collaborative assignments, and the LSU SEFWE. Follow the line of authority in the FW setting to discuss any problems or issues that may arise. Discussions should first be conducted with the FE. If resolution is not achieved with the FE, the student should attempt to resolve the issue with the FE and his/her supervisor. The AFWC is available to assist the student in planning how to approach the FE and/or supervisor, and how to express his/her concerns or issues. If problems or issues are not resolved at this level, the student may contact the PD.4.4 MOTS FW II Site Selection ProcessReview the list of sites: LSUHSC-Shreveport; Office of Legal Affairs /Affiliation Agreements the FW office files AOTA Fieldwork Data Form Student Evaluation of Fieldwork (SEFWE) Facility brochures / wwwLSU HEALTH-SFW II criteria:Review and select one FW site that is in Louisiana and one FW site that is out of state. You may choose to do both out of state.Rotations must be across the lifespan: pediatric ? adult Variety of settings: in-patient, out-patient, rehab, private practice, acute, orthopedic, work hardening To request a FW placement, schedule an appointment with the AFWC and two learning objectives for each site selected. One goal must address ACOTE C.1.12. (In all settings, psychosocial factors influencing engagement in occupation must be understood and integrated for the development of client-centered, meaningful, occupation-based outcomes). Once you have made your decision, complete the FW Request Form and submit to the AFWC.The AFWC will request the FW placement with the requested site. Once there is confirmation from the site, you will receive a confirmation email from the plete the FW confirmation form and schedule a meeting with the AFWC to sign the FW commitment form. It is the responsibility of the student to review the AOTA Data Form, fieldwork files, and contact the FW site to verify the specific requirements which must be met. Failure to comply with facility requirements may lead to fieldwork cancelation. 4.5 MOTS FW Site Request Form for Courses: OCCT 6625, OCCT 6741, OCCT 6841, OCCT 6911, OCCT 6913, OCCT 6413 LSU/AOTA FW Rotation Schedule: OT FW WIKI: LSU HEALTH-S Contracts: Name: _____________________Cell #: ___________________ Email: _______________________FW DatesSite Name/Type of Setting City StateLifespan Ages Comments: (Special interests/learning style/concerns you would like considered if at all possible)4.6 FW II SyllabusCourse Instructor and AFWCProfessor Gretchen Reeks, MA, LOTR, C/NDTEmail: greeks@lsuhsc.eduWork: 318.813.2953 Fax: 318.813.3001 Emergency: 318.453.4448 LSUHSC-Shreveport FW WIKI: Course Pre-requisitesThe Professional Development Assessment (PDA) is conducted by all faculty members to determine the student’s readiness skills for FW II. The FW II courses are available to students who have earned a passing score on the PDA. Students who do not receive a passing score will not progress to FW II. Students may not enroll in the FW II courses until all FW I course prerequisites are completed successfully.Students may not participate in the FW II courses until all prerequisite course work has been completed successfully.Course DescriptionsSpring Semester OCCT 6911 (9 credit hours) Fieldwork II: An in-depth experience in delivering occupational therapy services to clients. Students are supervised in a clinical setting full-time (40 hrs. per week) for 3 months. Summer Semester OCCT 6913 (6 credit hours) Fieldwork II: An in-depth experience in delivering occupational therapy services to clients.

FW II Outcome ObjectivesThe MOT student will:Consistently adhere to the AOTA Code of Ethics, safety regulations and use sound judgment.Effectively communicate verbally and in writing the values and beliefs of the OT profession, and the role of the OT to clients, families, significant others, colleagues, service providers, and the public.Focus on the application of purposeful and meaningful occupation and research, administration and management of OT services. Develop occupation-based intervention plans and strategies, and demonstrate the ability to apply them to client situations.Demonstrate the screening and evaluation tools used in OT practice, including assessments of occupational functioning, client factors, context, and determination of an occupational municate the role of the occupational therapist and occupational therapy assistants. Apply principles of management and systems in the provision of OT services including timeliness, correct and complete documentation, adherence to policy and procedure, collaboration, delegation, program evaluation and supervision.Utilize current research and professional literature to make informed evidence-based practice decisions.In all settings, understand and integrate psychosocial factors influencing engagement in occupation for the development of client-centered, meaningful, occupation-based outcomes.Participate in the supervisory process; utilizing available resources, communicating assertively and respectfully, and responding appropriately to constructive feedback.Assume a full client caseload, as defined by the FW site, by the end of the FW experience.Follow all policies and procedures as directed by the fieldwork site and LSU HEALTH–S.Submit correct and complete documentation in a timely manner. Develop competent, entry-level, generalist competencies upon completion of the FW II plete and participate in all FW II assignments from AFWC.Course Requirements and Course GradeThe MOTS must complete a total of 12 weeks of full-time clinical FW experience per course. Each course must have a minimum of 470 hours.FW II takes place at 2 separate sites. This can be either one FW II in state and one FW II out of state, or both FW II’s out of state.FW II experiences are scheduled to assure that the MOTS is exposed to a variety of settings and to a variety of clients across the life span. An MOTS who does not complete or does not earn a passing score in the AOTA FWPE (score of 122 or above) for each of the two required FW II experiences (OCCT 6911 and OCCT 6913) will be ineligible to take the National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) certification exam.? All assignments requested from the AFWC must be completed in order to receive a passing grade on the AOTA FWPE. The AFWC will determine the course grade. FW II may be repeated one time only. Students who repeat a course but earn an unacceptable grade will be dismissed from the School and Program in OT.Students financially assume the costs that accompany all FW experiences. The cost includes full tuition per FW course and all other site-specific fees. Additional expenses may consist of: housing, meals, transportation, travel, parking, materials for projects, scrubs, uniforms, etc. Personal Data Sheet and FW Introduction Letter The MOTS will complete the FW letter and Personal Data Sheet 6 weeks prior to the start date of each FW II.The AFWC will contact the MOTS and FE at midterm to discuss the learning opportunities and student performance. The LSU FW assignments are on the FW WIKI site. Each MOTS must complete these and email to the AFWC prior to the midterm collaborative FW call.As requested by the AFWC, the MOTS will assist the site FE with updating the AOTA DATA Form and Staff Profile. The FW II site experience is evaluated by the student, using the Student Evaluation for Fieldwork Experience (SEFWE) form. Students complete this form on SurveyMonkey and then emails to the AFWC. The AFWC will email back in a PDF format. The MOTS prints, reviews, and signs with the FE, and then mails to the AFWC. This form is reviewed by the AFWC and a summary given to the academic faculty. The form is then placed in the site file in the FW office. Pre-FW students have access to this document when choosing a FW II placement.The MOTS performance will be evaluated by the FE using the AOTA Fieldwork Performance Evaluation for the Occupational Therapy Student (FWPE). The Fieldwork Educator completes the FWPE at midterm and at the completion of the FW. The original final FWPE is mailed to the AFWC by the FE. Requirements for Pass on FWPE are: Rating of 3 or above for all Ethics and Safety items and an Overall Final Score of 122. Failure to achieve a score of 3 or 4 will be recorded as a failed FW II experience. Students who obtain a score of 122 or more, but do not have a 3 or 4 on the FWPE will earn a failed FW II experience.Failure may occur prior to midterm. Immediate removal from the site and/or a failing grade may be given for any fieldwork placement for the following:Violation of patients’ rights, violation of the rights of others, violation of the AOTA Code of Ethics.Unprofessional behavior, unsafe practice, substance abuse, failure to complete any requirements.Continued unsatisfactory performance, insubordination, excessive tardiness, and/or risks to patient care.A final score below a “3” on items 1–3 of Section 1 of the FWPE (Fundamentals of Practice). Students need to refer to the School’s Policies and Procedures for Academic Misconduct, Dismissal, and Appeals for further information. In the event a student is dismissed from the School for misconduct, he or she is ineligible for readmission to the School.The FE mails the original AOTA FWPE to the LSU HEALTH-S AFWC. The SEFWE and AOTA FWPE forms should be mailed no later than one week after the student has completed the experience. If the student does not meet the expectations of the FW II placement, they will earn a grade of “F”. Students who receive a failing grade or withdraw from a FW placement (per student, AFWC, or FE request) in one FW II experience may be given permission to take the course for a second time.?To be granted permission, the student must complete an action plan with specific strategies detailing the steps that will be taken to ensure that the student will be successful in subsequent FW experiences. No further FW placement will be provided until the AFWC and PD approve the student’s action plan.Students failing more than one fieldwork placement will be terminated from the program.? All fieldwork experiences must be completed within 24 weeks of fulfillment of didactic coursework. Withdrawal ProceduresStudents may initiate a course withdrawal in the first three weeks of each FW II experience. This withdrawal will earn them a grade of a “W,” and the student will be placed at a different site after completing an action plan that is approved by the AFWC. A student may only receive one “W” on FW II experiences. Receiving a “W” does not impact the student’s GPA. Receiving an “F” will be calculated into the student’s cumulative GPA. The student’s cumulative GPA must be at least 3.0 to be eligible for graduation. If either the student makes the decision to withdraw or if the AFWC/FE requests termination within the first three weeks, the student may be given permission to take the course for a second time. The withdrawal process is:The MOTS and FE will meet to determine the professional requirements that must be fulfilled prior to final exit.If the student requests withdrawal he/she will write a letter to the FE with a copy to the AFWC indicating reasons for withdrawal and the commitment to fulfill final requirements as determined by the facility.If the FE requests the student to be withdrawn from FW, a letter is written to the AFWC.The FE and student will schedule an exit interview. The FE will contact the AFWC after the exit interview. Failure to follow this process will result in a recorded grade of “F” on the MOTS academic record.The student will schedule an appointment with the AFWC after completing the entire withdrawal process.The student must contact the Registrar’s Office (Kim Carmen: Khatch@lsuhsc.edu (318.675.5207) to complete the required paperwork before leaving the Health Sciences Center. Failure to complete the withdrawal process will result in a block on the student’s academic record.If the student does not follow the stated withdrawal procedure or withdraws after the completion of week three, they will receive a failing grade. The FE may terminate at any time a student whose performance is not meeting competencies, or threatens the client’s treatment or safety. Termination will also result in an “F”. If a student is terminated and/or received an “F,” the student is subject to termination from the occupational therapy program. The student has the right to appeal this decision; refer to the student handbook for the appeals process. A student who has received an “F” and is allowed to remain in the program must submit an action plan to the AFWC describing how they will be successful on subsequent FW experiences. No further FW placement will be provided until the AFWC and PD approve the student’s action plan. Students who withdraw or fail a FW II experience must re-register for the course, and are responsible for the tuition associated with the FW II course. FW II Objectives: ACOTE StandardsThe 42 performance items listed on the AOTA FWPE are used as objectives to be met by all students during their FW II experiences. Sites are encouraged to collaborate with the AFWC in supplementing these with site specific objectives, site requirements and assignments. Available site specific objectives are filed in the FW files. See Appendix 1 for ACOTE FW Standards.Required Teaching and Learning ExperiencesFieldwork II is a practicum clinical experience. Students are strongly advised not to maintain outside employment during this last critical phase of their professional preparation. JustificationAccreditation Standards for a Master’s-Degree-Level Educational Program for the Occupational Therapist: Effective July 31, 2013, by The Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education (ACOTE) of the American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA).Behavioral ObjectivesBehavioral objectives are developed by the FW Site in collaboration with the AFWC. The FW Site provides one copy of these objectives to the student. An additional copy is sent to the AFWC who is responsible for maintaining student fieldwork files. Students are strongly advised not to maintain outside employment during this last critical phase of their professional preparation. Relationship to the Curriculum DesignFW II provides students with in depth experiences in integrating theory, practice and developing skill in the delivery of occupational therapy services. Students have the opportunity to begin acting as change agents and exploring roles in research, administration and management of occupational therapy services.Student PerformanceDuring all FW experiences, students are expected to take an active part in their learning as well as the supervisory process by seeking and utilizing available resources to support their learning and client outcomes. The student is responsible for following the line of authority in the FW setting. Discussions should first be conducted with the FE. If resolution is not achieved with the FE, the MOTS should resolve the issue with the FE and her/his supervisor. The AFWC is available to assist the student in planning how to approach the FE and/or supervisor. If problems or issues are not resolved at this level, the student may contact the O.T. PD. If the student’s midterm performance score on the AOTA FWPE is an 89 or below the AFWC must be notified immediately. Any concerns at any point during the FW experience must immediately be brought to the attention of the AFWC. A written plan will be developed jointly by the FE, AFWC and MOTS. The plan includes a description of the problem, suggested learning strategies, outcomes measures, timelines and consequences of success or failure to meet timelines. The FE monitors the progress and provides written feedback for the student at daily/weekly meetings. AOTA’s Fieldwork Experience Assessment Tool (FEAT) may also be used to structure and promote FE/student communication on the learning experience. This tool enables the FW educator and student to reflect and create a plan. The student outcome is to develop clinical skills and appropriate professional behaviors. If the AFWC receives notification from the FE/Supervisor that student is demonstrating unprofessional behaviors, is not competent to perform assigned tasks, and/or is a safety risk to self, patients and/or staff, the FE and AFWC will counsel the student on corrective actions. A learning contract is established to attempt to remediate/correct the identified issues. The learning contract will include, but is not limited to: a description of the problem, suggested learning strategies, outcome measures, time lines, and consequences of success or failure to meet requirements set forth in the plan. The FE monitors the student’s progress and provides formal (written) and informal feedback to the student and AFWC at intervals established in the learning contract.If the student does not meet the expectations outlined in the learning contract the fieldwork placement will be terminated and the student will receive a grade of “F” for the placement. Students who receive a failing grade in one FW II will be scheduled, at the convenience of the AFWC, to repeat this FW II course. If the student fails again, they will not be scheduled for additional FW II experiences. Students must notify the AFWC prior to withdrawing from FW II. Any abandonment of one’s professional responsibilities to the patient and facility is considered a serious violation of professional ethics. The student will receive a failing grade if they leave a FW site without notifying AFWC.4.7 FW II Optional Independent Study (OCCT 6413: 3 credit hours) Optional Independent Study Fieldwork II: An in-depth experience in delivering occupational therapy services to clients. Students are supervised in a clinical setting full-time (40 hrs. per week) for 6 weeks. Course must be approved by AFWC and PD prior to MOTS registration. This FW allows students the opportunity for in-depth study in specialty practice areas. Written objectives are jointly established by the AFWC, MOTS and FW educator. Registration for this course is done with approval of the PD and AFWC. All FW II courses are graded by the FE using AOTA’s FWPE. All items in the Fundamentals of Practice section must be scored 3 or above on the final evaluation to pass fieldwork. A pass/fail grade is assigned by the AFWC.The Independent Study FW II process is listed below:1. Make an appointment with the AFWC to discuss your leaning goals and objectives for this FW.2. Review the FW files and find a site that matches your goals and objectivesSECTION 55.1 GraduationDuring the second FW II rotation you will receive emails from LSU regarding the OT Program FW Seminar and Hooding Ceremony as well as information about the day of graduation. The graduation dates are this website: lsuhscshreveport.edu/registrar5.2 National Board for Certification in Occupational Therapy (NBCOT) Once you have received a passing score on both FW II’s and the AFWC received the original AOTA FWPE from the FE, the AFWC will post your grade. Once the grade has been posted, you may go to the NBCOT web site and download the Academic Credential Verification Form (ACVF). Complete Section I and email this to the OT Program Director. Upon receiving this, the OT Program Director will complete the school section and then send the information to NBCOT. Kim Carmen (LSU Registrar) will send your transcripts to NBCOT the Monday after the graduation ceremony. 5.3 Temporary LicensureIn Louisiana, you may obtain a temporary license after you have scheduled your exam with NBCOT. You will work under the supervision of an OTR. The following concerning temporary licensure is from AOTA:Many, but not all states allow practitioners to practice on a temporary license or limited permit while waiting to take or receive the results of the certification exam. If you fail the exam, you may not be able to continue to practice. Each state OT regulatory agency should be consulted for specific requirements (2015). See more at: Alumni The Program in OT at LSU HEALTH-S is interested in where its graduates begin their professional careers. Please contact the MOT Program Administrative Assistant: (acoll2@lsuhsc.edu 318.813.2950) and let us know where you are working.

FW sites are sufficient in number and types to meet the curriculum intent and design. A web page is listed below for complete sites offerings: seminars are held during the academic semesters to plan and discuss FW procedures. These seminars are mandatory for all students to participate in fieldwork. FW experiences are designed to provide students with multiple and varied opportunities to apply the knowledge and skills gained through didactic interactions and experiential learning experiences. Under the supervision of the FE’s, students identify clients' occupational performance issues and select appropriate theoretical frames of reference to screen and assess the clients. Students develop action plans with measurable goals and objectives that are matched to client-therapist agreed-upon targeted outcomes, carry out interventions, and plan for discontinuation of occupational therapy services and/or transition to other services. Within the fieldwork practice settings, students further develop the professional skills necessary for the establishment of effective client-therapist relationships and for successful collaboration with other members of the client's service delivery team.LSU Health-S academic coursework divides fieldwork education into two components, identified as “FW I” and “FW II”. ACOTE provides general guidelines regarding fieldwork education, but the specific nature and structure is determined by the academic faculty in collaboration with the FW educator. FW I may not be substituted for any part of FW II.6.2 Student Responsibility AgreementThe department only guarantees fieldwork placements that meet the AOTA standards and the department requirements. Students may request a specific placement, but the final decision is determined by availability of sites and will be made by the AFWC.Students must earn a successful completion of six (6) months of FW II, prior to graduation. Students may not participate in clinical or fieldwork courses until all prerequisite course work has been completed successfully. See “Provisions for Academic Progression” in general section of School of Allied Health Professions catalog.Students have the opportunity for an additional FW II experience through an Independent Study. This must approved by the OT Program Director and AFWC. The course credit, content, written objectives, and evaluation criteria are jointly established by the student and AFWC.A student who receives a grade of “Failure” in any FW II twice will be dismissed from the program regardless of the student’s cumulative grade point average. This requirement may be waived upon recommendation of the Department Head and approval of the Dean.All FW II requirements must be completed within 24 months following completion of didactic course work.One FW II placement must be scheduled outside of Louisiana. Students may complete both FW experiences out of state.Students assume their own financial responsibility for travel, living accommodations, etc. for each fieldwork placement. Very few facilities offer stipends, housing, or meals.After the paperwork has been completed and the FW site has been confirmed, there will be no changes in the placement. The FW sites are an integral part of the OT program, and the time the FE’s volunteer and dedicate to student clinical teaching is highly valued. It is disrespectful as well as unprofessional to withdraw from a FW commitment because a student prefers another site. This reflects poorly on the student as well as the university.If there is an emergency or dire circumstance, the student may request a change in writing to the AFWC indicating the reason for the change request. The request will be reviewed and the student will be notified in writing of the decision. A site may change areas of experience (e.g., from rehab to acute). This is not a reason for a student to request withdrawal from the placement contract.The MOTS assumes the responsibility to:Review FW files and consider all contingencies prior to selecting a FW site. Meet the prerequisite expectations of each facility.Submit Personal Data Sheet, letter of intent, and any required information to fieldwork educator 60 days prior to the scheduled starting date.Submit copies of liability insurance, health insurance, CPR, etc. information to department and fieldwork site prior to starting date, as well as any other forms required by the plete the SEFWE after each FW. Mail the original to the AFWC and leave one copy with your FW educator.Upon completion of fieldwork, please write a letter of appreciation to the OT FW Educator. Only the AFWC will contact FW sites for the purpose of setting up FW placements. All negotiating of FW II experiences will be done by the AFWC. No student may contact a site for the purpose of assessing the availability of a student placement or to secure a site for themselves or others.The student is responsible to contact the school when problems arise during fieldwork.6.3 Fieldwork Professional BehaviorsThe Program in OT values each FW as an opportunity for the students to demonstrate intentional learning under the supervision of an occupational therapist. Evaluation of student performance during FW experiences is an ongoing process. This occurs during supervisory sessions, both formal and informal, as well as during the processing of FW in the academic course work. The occupational therapy program utilizes an adaptation of the Professional Development Assessment ? (PDA) developed by Kasar, Clark, Watson, & Pfister (1996) to assess students’ professional behaviors. The OT faculty collaborates and assesses each student’s professional behaviors at the end of each semester. Each student is provided with written and verbal direct feedback regarding their professional behaviors in the classroom and in course related activities in various community settings. Students who do not receive ratings by faculty of a 3 or 4 in each area will work with their faculty advisor to determine strategies for achieving these expected ratings during the current semester. These strategies, expressed as personal objectives with timelines for achievement, will be documented. The form will be entered into the student’s file, with a copy provided to the student. Achievement of the objectives will be discussed at follow-up meetings between the student and his/her advisor. Failure to correct identified unprofessional behaviors will result in dismissal from the program and the student will not progress to FW II.FW I professional behaviors are assessed by the fieldwork educators using a form designed by the course instructor to best meet the course objectives. Students who do not receive ratings on the PDA of a 3 or 4 will meet with the AFWC and/or course coordinator to discuss strategies for achieving these ratings. These strategies will be documented and a collaborative plan will be developed and signed by both the student and faculty.FW II professional behaviors are evaluated on the FWPE (The American Occupational Therapy Association, Inc., 2002). Failure to correct or modify behaviors identified in the academic or fieldwork settings and described in a formal plan, could result in a failure of the FW rotation.Failure to correct or modify behaviors identified in the academic or fieldwork settings and described in a formal plan, will result in disciplinary process.6.4 Academic Fieldwork Site SelectionThe AFWC confirms that there is a current written contract in place between LSU and the site throughout the time that the student is on FW. The LSU Health-S Legal Affairs department initiates all contracts to each site, per the AFWC’s request. All original contracts are kept in the Legal Affairs Office with copies in the Allied Health’s Dean’s office. The Legal Affairs web page lists the current contracts with the contract expiration date. The AFWC reviews this site at the beginning of the fiscal year and requests contract renewals if needed. Contracts are reviewed at least every 5 years.The faculty and AFWC work closely to discuss and select FW sites that best support occupation-based practice and the curriculum design. Sites that meet the facility site selection criteria are used to support the didactic teachings. Students will not be placed at FW sites that do not support the LSU curriculum. FW site or educators that are under review for unethical practice will be eliminated from the site selection. The AFWC also collaborates with the site FW coordinator to update or complete forms electronically, on a site-visit, or on the phone. The AOTA Data Form is completed by the FW educator and provides comprehensive knowledge of the site’s FW philosophy. FW experiences are “a crucial part of professional preparation” (ACOTE), and sites are selected based on occupational therapy practice that best integrates with the LSU curriculum design. The FW site AOTA Data Forms are reviewed by AFWC prior to student placement. If this form is not current, the AFWC notifies the site and requests an update either electronically or verbally. This form reveals current FW site current participation in a review process (i.e.: Joint Commission on Accreditation of Health Care Organizations), and also the philosophy of OT service delivery. The narrative section allows the FW educator to write about the OT department philosophy and services. This includes integrating client-centered practice, clinical reasoning and reflective practice as taught in the OT curriculum. Meaningful occupations should be a site recurring theme.Faculty/student evaluations may be informal: classroom discussion, graduation seminar or formal: Student Evaluation of Fieldwork Experience (SEFWE). Student feedback regarding FW sites is an important means of assisting students to develop the ability to critically analyze situations in a professional manner. It also provides the site and academic program with information on the program, clients, supervision and ability to integrate classroom knowledge into practical application. The AFWC conference calls are also incorporated into the site selection process. At the forefront of this selection is the FE’s support of role modeling and commitment to student learning. The AFWC consults with the FE’s regarding compliance with ACOTE standards and understanding of the academic curriculum design. The AFWC encourages all FW educators to advance their clinical teaching skills by attending the AOTA Fieldwork Certificate Program. ACOTE (2011) FW I StandardsC.1.8.Ensure that Level I FW is integral to the program’s curriculum design and include experiences designed to enrich didactic coursework through directed observation and participation in selected aspects of the occupational therapy process.C.1.9Ensure that qualified personnel supervise Level I FW. Examples may include, but are not limited to, currently licensed or otherwise regulated occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants, psychologists, physician assistants, teachers, social worker, nurses, and physical therapists.C.1.10Document all Level I FW experiences that are provided to students, including mechanisms for formal evaluation of student performance. Ensure that Level I FW is not substituted for any part of Level II FW. ACOTE Standards (2011) for Level II FieldworkThe Program in Occupational Therapy at LSUHSC-Shreveport follows all standards developed by the Accreditation Council for Occupational Therapy Education for Fieldwork II. These standards serve as official policies of LSUHSC-Shreveport FW II. The goal of Level II fieldwork is to develop competent, entry-level, generalist occupational therapists. Level II fieldwork must be integral to the program’s curriculum design, and must include an in-depth experience in delivering occupational therapy services to clients, focusing on the application of purposeful and meaningful occupation and research, administration, and management of occupational therapy services. It is recommended that the student be exposed to a variety of clients across the lifespan and to a variety of settings. ACOTE’s fieldwork Level II standards are outlined below.The program will:C.1.11Ensure that the fieldwork experience is designed to promote clinical reasoning and reflective practice, to transmit the values and beliefs that enable ethical practice, and to develop professionalism and competence in career responsibilities. C.1.12Provide Level II fieldwork in traditional and/or emerging settings, consistent with the curriculum design. In all settings, psychosocial factors influencing engagement in occupation must be understood and integrated for the development of client-centered, meaningful, occupation-based outcomes. The student can complete Level II fieldwork in a minimum of one setting if it is reflective of more than one practice area, or in a maximum of four different settings.C.1.13Require a minimum of 24 weeks’ full-time Level II fieldwork. This may be completed on a part-time basis, as defined by the fieldwork placement in accordance with the fieldwork placement’s usual and customary personnel policies, as long as it is at least 50% of an FTE at that site.C.1.14Ensure that the student is supervised by a currently licensed or otherwise regulated occupational therapist who has a minimum of 1 year full-time (or its equivalent) of practice experience subsequent to initial certification and who is adequately prepared to serve as a fieldwork educator. The supervising therapist may be engaged by the fieldwork site or by the educational program.C.1.15Document a mechanism for evaluating the effectiveness of supervision (e.g., student evaluation of fieldwork) and for providing resources for enhancing supervision (e.g., materials on supervisory skills, continuing education opportunities, articles on theory and practice). C.1.16Ensure that supervision provides protection of consumers and opportunities for appropriate role modeling of occupational therapy practice. Initially, supervision should be direct and then decrease to less direct supervision as appropriate for the setting, the severity of the client’s condition, and the ability of the student.C.1.17Ensure that supervision provided in a setting where no occupational therapy services exist includes a documented plan for provision of occupational therapy services and supervision by a currently licensed or otherwise regulated occupational therapist with at least 3 years’ full-time or its equivalent of professional experience. Supervision must include a minimum of 8 hours of direct supervision each week of the fieldwork experience. An occupational therapy supervisor must be available, via a variety of contact measures, to the student during all working hours. An on-site supervisor designee of another profession must be assigned while the occupational therapy supervisor is off site.C.1.18Document mechanisms for requiring formal evaluation of student performance on Level II fieldwork (e.g., the AOTA Fieldwork Performance Evaluation for the Occupational Therapy Student or equivalent). C.1.19Ensure that students attending Level II fieldwork outside the United States are supervised by an occupational therapist who graduated from a program approved by the World Federation of Occupational Therapists and has 1 year of experience in practice.?Louisiana State University Health Sciences Center- ShreveportProgram in Occupational Therapy?Fieldwork WIKILSUHEALTH-S Web SitesFieldwork Site Contracts: Website:? lsuhscshreveport.edu/registrarACOTE Standards2012 standards.pdf LOUISIANALA RULES Occupational Therapists, Assistants.pdfOccupational Therapy Practice Act 7 09.pdfLSBME OT OTA Initial Application Packet 06 18 14.docMOTS FW PortfolioLSU Certificate of Insurance 2014.pdf ?Request for Criminal Background Check or Re-check.docxRequest for Drug Check.pdfList of Official Documents - June 2011.pdf Fieldwork Evidence Based Resources for OT.docxStandards for Continuing Competence (2010 Revision).pdfScope of Practice (edited 2009).pdfGuidelines for Supervision Roles and Responsibilities.pdfaotastandardsof practice.pdfEnforcement Procedures w complaint form.pdfDocumentation Guideline.pdfCode and Ethics Standards 2010.pdfHIPAA Guidelines for Fieldwork.pdfCOTA SupervisonCOTA supervision table.pdfPre-FW DocumentsFW Manual 5-12-2015.docx Learning Style Inventory.docx Teaching Style Survey.docx FW survival guide.pdf LSU Certificate of Insurance 2014.pdf Request for Drug Check.pdf Request for Criminal Background Check or Re-check.docx FIELDWORKAOTA FIELDWORK DATA FORM_LSU.docxLSU OT FW Ed Site Visit Form.docx Suggestions for Level II Assignments.docx?Student FW II Site Selection Process.docx Student Request for Fieldwork Experience II.docx Fieldwork Level II Position Paper.pdf OT Fieldwork Education - Value and Purpose.pdf aotasupervision.pdfMost Frequently Asked Fieldwork Questions.pdfHIPAA Guidelines for Fieldwork.pdfExcellence in Fieldwork Criteria Fieldwork Site.mhtExcellence in Fieldwork Criteria.docxImportanceFeedback.pdfoccupationbasedkits.pdfCollaborativeFWModelarticlebyCohn_001.pdf??CreatingCongruenceArticle_001.pdfFW I MOTS InformationMOTS FW I Pediatric Letter to Site.docx ? ? ? ?? ?MOTS FW I Letter to Adult Site.docx OT FW Educator Evaluation of Student.docStudent Fieldwork Evaluation of Site.docFW II MOTS InformationStudent FW II Site Selection Process.docx Student Request for Fieldwork Experience II.docxMOTS FW II Letter to Site-1.docx FW II first rotation 3 week checkFW II second rotation 3 week checkMOTs and OT FW Educator Weekly Collaboration.docx Survey Monkey SEFWE.pdf SAMPLE AOTA FWPEOT (2).pdfFieldwork II Description of different settings.pdfLevel II FW Assignment Agreement.docx MOTS FW Letter to Site.docx MOTS and OT FW Educator Weekly Collaboration.docxIndependent Study Level II Fieldwork Experience.docx FW II Independent Study MOTS Contract.docx Survey Monkey SEFWE.pdf FW survival guide.pdfFieldwork Evidence Based Resources for OT.docxaota_fwpe_sample.pdfSample FW Feedback FormsSample forms for feedback.pdf MOTs and OT FW Educator Weekly Collaboration.docxFW Educator ResourcesAJOT FW students and productivity.pdf ?2008 Practice Framework.pdf firsttimefwedchecklist.doc 1 Collaborative Learning Applied to FW Education - Cohn, Dooley, Simmons.pdf FWPE Supplemental LSU.docx occupationbasedkits.pdf levelIIweeklygrid.doc midtermselfassessment.pdf generallevelIIfwobjectives.pdf FIELDWORK SITE RESPONSIBILITIES.docx firsttimefwedchecklist.doc classroomtoclinic.pdf Suggestions for Level II Assignments.docx HelpfulBooks.docFW Educator creating + environment.docx Communication Tip Sheet for FW Educators.docFWeducation competencies.pdfFW educator self assess.pdfExcellence in Fieldwork Criteria Fieldwork Educator.mht?

Lexington, KY 40504 STUDENT EVALUATION OF THE FIELDWORK EXPERIENCE (SEFWE)Purpose: This evaluation serves as a tool for fieldwork sites, academic programs, and students. The main objectives of this evaluation are to: Enable the Fieldwork II student who is completing a placement at the site to evaluate and provide feedback to the supervisor and fieldwork setting;Enable academic programs, fieldwork sites, and fieldwork educators to benefit from student feedback in order to develop and refine their Fieldwork II programs;Ensure that all aspects of the fieldwork program reflect the sequence, depth, focus, and scope of content of the curriculum design;Provide objective information to students who are selecting sites for future Fieldwork II experiences; andProvide a means of evaluation to ensure that fieldwork is performed in settings that provide educational experiences applicable to the academic program.This form is designed to offer each program the opportunity to gather meaningful and useful information. Sections outlined with thick black double borders are designed to be customized by your program as needed. Pages involving evaluation of individual fieldwork educators have been positioned at the end of the form to allow academic programs to easily remove these pages before making them available for student review, if they choose to do so.STUDENT EVALUATION OF THE FIELDWORK EXPERIENCE (SEFWE)Instructions to the Student:Complete this STUDENT EVALUATION OF THE FIELDWORK EXPERIENCE (SEFWE) form before your final meeting with your fieldwork supervisor(s). It is imperative that you review the form with your supervisor and that both parties sign on page 1. Submit this form on Blackboard with your supervisor then print and sign page 1 to give to your Academic Fieldwork Supervisor. This information may be reviewed by future students as well. The evaluation of the student (FWPE) should be reviewed first, followed by the student’s evaluation of the fieldwork experience (SEFWE), allowing the student to be honest and constructive.

Data were collected from fieldwork students and fieldwork educators. In their interviews, students and fieldwork educators described fieldwork education in terms of a dynamic triad of interaction among the environment, the fieldwork educator, and the student. Interviewees indicated that a positive educational experience occurred when a balance existed among these three key components.Purpose:The FEAT identifies essential characteristics for each of the three key components. By providing aframework to explore the fieldwork experience, the FEAT can help students and fieldwork educators consider how to promote the best possible learning experience.The purpose of the FEAT is to contribute to student and fieldwork educator discussions, so that reflection and problem solving can occur to enhance the fieldwork experience. The tool is designed to both assess the balance of the three key components, and to facilitate discussion about student and fieldwork educator behaviors and attitudes, and environmental resources and challenges. By mutually identifying issues present during fieldwork, the fieldwork educator and student can use the FEAT as a tool to promote dialogue, and foster the identification of strategies to facilitate the just right challenge. The FEAT may be used early in fieldwork as a tool to promote dialogue, or at any time throughout fieldwork as the need for problem solving emerges.Directions:In the Assessment Section, the FEAT is organized according to the three key components:environment, fieldwork educator, and student. Under each component, essential characteristics and examples are listed. These examples are not all inclusive, and new descriptors may be added to individualize the tool for different settings. The fieldwork educator and student, either individually or together, should complete the FEAT by describing each component using the continuum provided at the top of each section (limited ? just right challenge ? excessive).Following the assessment portion of the FEAT, questions are provided to guide student and fieldwork educator discussion and problem solving. Collaboratively reflect upon the student and fieldwork educator descriptions on the FEAT to identify commonalities and differences between the two perspectives, and identify patterns across the key components. Based on these discussions, develop strategies for a more balanced fieldwork experience. Consider environmental experiences and resources; fieldwork educator attitudes, behaviors and professional attributes; and/or student attitudes and behaviors that could enhance the experience. The examples listed within each section are intended to guide discussion between the fieldwork educator and student in an effort to create a successful fieldwork experience. Additional elements may be identified and included according to the nature of the setting or the fieldwork process.A. Assessment SectionENVIRONMENTI. VARIETY OF EXPERIENCESDescriptions (Limited ?
