The University offers a number of courses defined as "external instruction" for regularly enrolled students to meet program requirements. "External instruction" is defined as instruction received at a site or sites to which a student is sent by the University to participate in instructional activities. Within the scope of "external instruction" are internships, field work, directed practice, and clinical practical. External instruction also includes distance learning opportunities whether delivered over television, through video or sound cassettes, or the Internet. The purpose of external instruction is to provide students practical occupational experience as an integral part of their formal education and to provide students with alternative means of scheduling educational experience. An affiliation agreement between the University and the supervisor of the "external instruction site" must provide for the following: 1. A planned work experience that is progressive and curriculum related. 2. Measurable educational outcomes for the student that contains opportunities for applications of the knowledge, skills, and competencies gained in the class/lab/shop clinic at the campus. 3. A supervisor directly responsible for the student while he/she is participating in the "external site instruction" and a process for documentation of contract. 4. A plan for evaluating student progress and the joint venture of the "external instruction" experience. |
