I learned from this module that service learning offers students excellent opportunities for personal, professional, and career growth. I also learned that dependability and quality of service are defining qualities that are important to any service learning project in a community.

I learned from this module that frequent evaluations are key elements of service learning. It is important to perform frequent formative evaluations to determine if adjustments are needed. I will be suggesting that approach to my current clinical coordinators.

This particular module is chock full of information and offers excellent ideas for service learning. I intend to present some of the ideas to my instituations' the clinical coordinators.

So far in this course, I have learned just how mutually beneficial service learning is. I wish I had completed this course 2 semesters ago when I was asked to cover a community nursing rotation. Going forward I intend to utilize this information when given the opportunity. 

Internships is a great way to build student skills, expose them to real life situations. For thier career path 

Having a good exit interview and assessment helps not only the current intern but also addresses any issues that may need to be addressed for the future relationship.  Making sure to time the assessments well before grading period is important for teachers. 

Having open lines of communication with the WBL employee supervisor and coordinator is key to the success of the internship.  The coordinator should work to develop strong communication with the employer. 

Forms that are individualized while also accounting for Federal and State laws are essential.  It is important that every student in the program has an agreement, plan, and assessments, but that they are tailored to the individual student in development. 

The internship experience should be all-encompassing and immersive.  It allows students to develop professional behaviors and goals. 

Internships can build upon a robust WBL program that starts early and is strategic. It can lead to greater career outcomes for students.
