Student Field Experiences
Information for College Supervisors
During a successful field experience there are three contributors to the field experience "Triad," these include the field experience student, the cooperating teacher or mentor teacher, and the university supervisor. Of this triad, the University Supervisor is the person who generally receives the least recognition and is often misperceived as lacking in importance. From our perspective, the supervisor should be an important contributor serving as the university's point-person because they act as a liaison between the teacher education program, the school, and the student. The conscientious supervisor assumes many respsonsibilities including, facilitator, observer, critic, counselor, and all around "trouble-shooter."
