Evaluation, Final Internship
Assignments and Forms
Assignments are to be completed at different intervals throughout
your internship (see Internship Daily Logs)
EVALUATION - of
students internship will be based on the following:
- Weekly E-mail Reports: The
intern must report to the faculty supervisor by e-mail
at least ONCE EACH WEEK during the internship period. FAILURE
TO MAKE WEEKLY EMAIL REPORTS MAY BE CAUSE FOR RECEIVING
A FAILING GRADE IN THE INTERNSHIP. The email report
should be a brief statement regarding progress of the internship
and the student’s
description of what is being learned. The purpose of the
weekly email is to act as the sort of conversation or conference
you might have if you were able to go to your faculty supervisor’s
office and talk about the internship. In your email,
you’ll probably discuss the various tasks you've
been asked to do, as well as your impressions of what you're
learning. Your
daily logs will be more detailed and probably longer than
your weekly email. Interns are required to check
their email at least 3 times spaced throughout each week.
All interns must have reliable access to email during
the entire internship period. It is strongly
suggested that interns DO NOT use their internship
supervisor’s
server to send weekly internship email to the faculty supervisor. In
order to ensure privacy interns should not send email to
faculty from the internship site.
- Faculty Supervisor/Agency
Consultation: A faculty
supervisor will request a brief on-site consultation, or
other consultation, with the internship agency supervisor
to ascertain the student’s responsibilities and progress
in the internship. The faculty supervisor will also speak
separately with the student about the internship experience.
- Internship
Agency Evaluation: Near
the end of the internship, the Music Department will send
a one-sheet evaluation form to the on-site supervisor for
comments and a recommendation for a final grade.
- Successful
Completion of Required Contact Hours: Completion
of 400 contact hours of approved internship/field experience
(for students matriculated after Fall 2009, completion
of 360 contact hours of approved internship/field experience.)
- Successful Completion of Final Internship Assignments
FINAL INTERNSHIP ASSIGNMENTS – Students
need to complete & submit Daily Logs; Student Verification
of Hours Worked Form, and Learning Outcomes Form (see details
below for each)
- Internship Daily Logs:
Daily logs must be submitted in hard
copy at TWO (2) times.
- Daily Logs: Internship logs (for hours served
up to time of supervisor visit) must be given to the
faculty supervisor at the time of the supervisor’s
visit to the internship.
- Daily logs after Oneonta Faculty
Supervisor visit should accompany final assignment
paperwork
The logs must be typed or word-processed. The student
will keep an accurate daily log of each day's work
during the internship, including days, dates and hours
worked.
If an activity is performed more than
once, it should be described in detail the first time and
simply listed the second time. The first time that
a student puts together a press packet, for example, the
log entry might describe the contents of the packet and
include whatever additional information seems appropriate. Example: "The
press kit included an artist picture and bio, as well
as press releases from the last major tour. It also
included the name of a contact person, upcoming concert
dates and record release dates. The press release was written
by the Director of Promotion."
- Student
Verification of Hours Worked Form:
The Student
Statement of Hours Worked Form must be completed
by the student showing a computation of total hours worked
during the internship on a week by week basis. The form
should be placed at the beginning of
the daily logs when they are turned in at the end of the
internship. The Statement of Hours must be SIGNED
AND DATED by the student. The
hours should be verifiable by examining the logs
and by speaking
with the intern supervisor.
| Example: |
Week June
1-7, 2007 Week June 10-15, 2007 |
Total hours worked Total
