These were fantastic ideas concerning ways to engage students while also staying on task.  I particularly liked the way the vacation/assessment task was set up.

Evaluations of a student's progress should include their ability to meet the outlined objectives set before the internship/clinical begins.

In our case, the deliberate and continuous observation and guidance of the "intern" is vital to help ensure they are given the best possible experience while on site

Ensure that the "intern" is exposed to and able to perform specific and relatable tasks during their time on site.

On the job training benefits both the employer and the intern, building viable skills that may be useful in a permanent position in the future.

It is truly vital that students are able to have practical practice in their future professions if they are to build confidence and succeed in their endeavors

I'm very excited for this portion of our modules, because it gives clear guidance and grounded encouragement for the implementation of active learning in our classrooms.

Organization, organization and organization with a healthy dose of preparation.  I also took away a great many suggestions for how to actually implement active learning and promote critical thinking in my courses/teaching

My takeaway from this module has been the importance and emphasis on active learning for adult learners.

I am not alone in feeling nervous and unprepared (though I absolutely am and will continue to be).  Just maintain the preparation and planning, and make notes after class about anything that went particularly right or wrong.  Remember I am the SME, and have knowledge and understanding my students need to begin their own careers as nurses.
