    Formal End of Placement Online Evaluation Link (Microsoft Forms) URL

    Mark as done

    Please use this link to complete the final evaluation of the student teacher for each placement. This should be completed by both the cooperating and supervising teacher at the end of each 8-week placement or at the conclusion of a 16-week placement. That said, it can be done collaboratively. This is a substantial form to evaluate progress on character dispositions and InTASC standards, and it does not allow you to come back to complete it. 

    To complete this evaluation, you will need the following information: 
    

    • Evaluator Role: Cooperating or Supervising Teacher
    • Prefix: EDU
    • Course Number: Student Teaching
    • Couse Type: Undergraduate

    Mock Evaluation

    There is a requirement in the state of Iowa that student teachers participate in a mock evaluation of their teaching. This evaluation can be done by an administrator, cooperating teacher, instructional coach, or designee. You may choose to use any evaluation document you choose, but I must have a signed copy of the cover page returned to me.

    School-Based Interview

    An important part of the student teaching placement is for students to have an opportunity to participate in an interview (for a real or imagined position) with a school administrator. The hope is that this will allow the student teacher to gain insight and confidence in the interviewing/hiring process. The school-based interview should occur after a minimum of 12 weeks into their student placement. If the student teacher has two, eight week placements, they should do their interview four weeks into their second placement. 

    For record-keeping, all I require is an email from the administrator saying that they have conducted the interview with the student teacher. This can be sent to me at jhaverland@dbq.edu.
