Development Process
• Alterations were made but the majority of the feedback was positive and as the process is ongoing feedback is still being requested.
• All Practice Educators have received audit forms from their placement students, as have visiting tutors and students for a rounded analysis
Student Feedback• It is essential for Practice Educators to
give written feedback for me to progress
• When there is more than one educator they can read the goals set and feedback of other educators to understand the whole picture
• Main concern is regarding the time needed to complete the form
Educator Feedback
• Appreciated input on the document by the student – thus a more proactive approach
• Found the glossary of terms useful in interpreting University language into real setting
• Concerned regarding time taken to complete the form.
Training
• All the HEI’s placement coordinators are available in a supportive role to do additional training for the document should it be required
• Alternatively seek help for the visiting tutors or colleagues who have used the paperwork before.
