It is the field instructor's responsibility to conduct an evaluation conference with the student and, based on the discussion, to write a draft of the final evaluation. The student should be given some time to read, reflect, and assimilate the content. The field instructor and student should then meet together to review the evaluation. Evaluations should be typed and sent to the Office of Field Instruction in duplicate. One copy is then sent to the student's file and the other to the student's advisor.
Students sign the evaluation to indicate that they have read and reviewed it.
Signing it does not mean that they agree with it. All changes should be included in the final evaluation draft. Lastly, the field instructor closes the evaluation by making a recommendation for the grade in Field Instruction, either Pass or Fail. It then becomes the advisor's ultimate responsibility to determine and grant the grade. All necessary evaluation materials are in this manual.
