Name of Student: _______________________________________________________________

Setting: _______________________________________________________________________

The student and the supervisor should prepare written statements of evaluation using the objectives in the learning agreement and the guidelines on the following page. These statements should then be shared, discussed, and clarified in supervisory session.

The Evaluation fulfills a twofold purpose:

1. It gives the student and supervisor an opportunity to reflect upon the Supervised Field Education experience, assess it, and summarize it at its completion.

2. It provides the Office of Professional Education a thorough and articulated assessment of the experience, detailed enough to make the experience "come alive" with shape and texture.

To be noted:

• An evaluation is generally more satisfactory if each point above is treated separately.
• There is no specific length for an adequate evaluation, but it should be long enough to give a genuine feeling for the nature and scope of the ministerial experience.
• In this regard, examples and concrete illustrations of the points being made are often helpful.
• Abstract and generalized statements should often be illustrated.
• Both the student and supervisor should assess not only the strong points successes of the student, but also note the places where the student can grow.
