Field Placement Assessment

Fieldwork placement is a vital part of a student’s education as it allows them to experience the frontline tasks of a community worker and it provides the student the opportunity to develop practical skills needed in the workplace. It is an opportunity to allow the student to integrate theory into practice through a range of human and community service experience.

Chiles Elementary value public and collaborative teaching a little more, it also included in its school improvement plan strategies for recruiting, developing, and maintaining effective teachers in the school.

Upon hiring new and beginning teachers, the school assigns a mentor teacher to each so that the mentor teacher, grade-level team, and administrators can provide adequate support and resources to these new teachers.

Lonnie B. Nelson Elementary is a public education institution in Richland Two School District, located in Columbia, South Carolina. The school was established in 1963 and celebrated its fifty-third birthday this year. Much has changed since the doors first opened at the “hive” over a half-century ago, but the tradition and history remain just as rich as the community it belongs to. Lonnie B. was named after a local prominent businessman who also served as a member of the school board (“History,” 2016). The school was founded after the renowned Mr. Nelson, in an effort to recognize his contributions and work in the community (“History,” 2016). The original structures of the building still reside in the well-developed, modern, elementary school that Lonnie B. Nelson is today. Renovations and additions have been completed in order to sustain the rapid growth of the population in Northeast Columbia. The most recent changes to the school include; adoption of the Integrated Thematic Instruction (ITI) model in 2006, establishment of the Academy for Civic Engagement (ACE) magnet program in 2007, the active use of 7 Habits of Highly Effective People used as a framework for their community of learners and AVID, Advancement Via Individual Determination, for students grades fourth through fifth (“History,” 2016). Lonnie B. Nelson provides a safe and nurturing environment that focuses on challenging all students academically while

All of the students in my field placement speak English pretty well. There are just a few students, who speak both Spanish and English, but there are no students, who speak just Spanish or struggle with English. However, my CT teaches kinder and uses a lot of strategies that would help ELLs a lot. For example, whenever my CT goes over the different colors with his students, he points to the picture of the color with the word on it and repeats the word. Sometimes, my CT will sound out each letter in the word or have his students guess what the word is by the first sound the word makes. The repetition of words helps his students understand the correspondence between a written word and a spoken word. Sounding out each letter in a word also helps his students understand that different letters make different sounds and that putting together different letters create words.

Calvin Hunsinger is a Title I school with 100% of the students on free breakfast and lunch. 35% of the entire school is proficient in reading and a 38% average for proficiency in mathematics.

When speaking to the principal, Mr. Keimig, it was realized that behavioral data is at an all time high and needs to be the focus for the upcoming school year.

Taking a class about teaching and actually going to a classroom to teach is an eye opening experience. Field experience helps prepare you for what an actual classroom setting is like when you’re in charge and not just teaching in front of your peers. By taking part in field experience I was able to learn new things about education as a whole and myself in general. Field experience changed me by allowing me to see the classroom through teacher’s eyes and helping me narrow down the list of what career I might want in the future. Going into the field experience I had no idea what to expect.

I enjoyed my filed placement experience! The only concern that I have is the number of hours I have completed. This was a unique experience for me as SPARC hours are Monday through Friday 9 am to 1 pm. I only worked there 4 days per week. In having to complete 250 hours to pass the term I am worried about this. In addition, we had 2 days off for weather related reasons and one full week off due to the spring break for SPARC.

I moved to California three years ago to pursue a Master's degree in social work at USC. During the time I have lived here, I have gained invaluable experience working full-time in the social work field. My first social work related job in California was working at an IMD step-down program for transitional aged youths and adults with dual diagnoses. From there, I began working in the Wraparound program at Aviva Family and Children's Services as a Child and Family Specialist. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time working with these agencies but am also very excited to begin graduate study at USC's School of Social Work since my graduate education was the reason for my move to southern California.

The engagement skills I have utilized thus far in field placement is building trust with others, mentoring others, and inclusion (social/community). I’ve been working with individuals new to me therefore it is important for me to build trust with these individuals so that we can collaboratively work together to achieve their desired outcomes. I’ve been mentoring new staff to the agency. As an employee with a long history with the agency, I’ve been asked to provide feedback to new staff to foster their growth as an employee. Additionally, I have been working on inclusion-social/community/employment inclusion. There is a movement in the state of Ohio for individuals with a developmental disability to become more engaged in their communities.

Being out in the field is way more different than reading and learning just from a book. Interning in a project where there are over 200 subcontractors and over 5,000 men and women working, carrying something to write on has been very helpful. Being out here as a field coordinator has been critical and carrying something with me has helped me keep in track of everything that is going on with the project. Whether it is to write some finished floor elevations to even directions by a supervisor, this suggestion has been very effective.
