Regular Practicum
The Practicum Office requires candidates enrolled in the BEd/DipEd program to submit the following forms at various deadlines throughout the year.
- Assessment form (copy only)
- Work/Education Placement Agreement form (signature only required for regular practicum)
- Summary of Fall Practicum form
Assessment Forms
A formative, summative, and self-assessment must be completed for each practicum block. The Practicum Office requires a *copy of the summative assessment only. The Faculty Liaison requires a copy of each assessment (formative, self, and summative).
*Candidates must keep the original of all assessments. The original will be needed to make further copies for application purposes. It is very important to keep the original copies in a safe place as the Practicum Office will not make copies from the files. Make sure both signatures are on all assessments.
Work Education Placement Agreement Form
Each District School Board requires a Work/Education Placement Agreement form for each candidates working in their schools. *Candidates will be asked to sign a cumulative list that will be attached to the Work/Education Placement Agreement form, sent to the board for their signature and files, then a copy will be given to Queen's Health and Safety. Because the Ministry of Education covers the cost of worker's compensation and private insurance coverage, the Ministry may use the information on the Work/Education Placement Agreement form to verify claims.
*The Work/Education Placement Agreement form list will be given to your PROF 190/191 instructor for signature in class.
Summary of Fall Practicum Forms
Deadline: January 9, 2009. This form must be completed and submitted to the Practicum Office. Practicum Summary forms must be completed by each candidate prior to the end of the Fall Practicum (December 19, 2008). These forms will indicate with whom the candidate worked in the fall term and with whom the candidate will be working upon return to the Associate School in February.
Intermediate-Senior candidates wanting a placement in grade 7/8 for the third teaching block must complete this form by November 21, 2008. Requests received after this date will not be accepted. IS candidates must have completed both teaching subjects in the first two teaching blocks in order to be eligible to request grade 7/8. Grade 7/8 placements are NOT guaranteed, so a tentative placement should be arranged at your original Associate School for the third practicum block. Normally a placement in a feeder school to your Associate School will be arranged if possible.
