Internship Evaluation Instructions for Students

 

 

This section deals with the responsibilities of the student in the evaluation process of the internship.

 

Information Sheet

The information sheet is due the week prior to the beginning of your internship.

 

Journal

Students should be keeping a journal of their daily activities in the office where they are working. Keep track of the issues you address or handle on a daily basis, personnel with whom you have interactions, and questions regarding the work the office performs. This journal should be submitted at least twice over the course of the internship, and not later than the week prior to the termination of the internship. You will be using this material to help formulate your answers to the final evaluation (below).

You should be writing approximately one (1) paragraph for every 4 hours of activity you have been working on at the internship.

 

Questions to think about when writing in your journal (Please do not limit yourself to just these questions, but be creative in your summary!)

 

- What tasks did I accomplish today?

- What are the policy functions that the office is carrying out?

- How do the activities that I engaged in today contribute to the operation of the office?

- What staff did I interact with during my daily activities?

- What would I do to improve the operation of the office?

- How has what I have done today contribute to my overall understanding of the activities the office performs?

- What are the strengths and weaknesses of personnel I work with on a daily basis?

- How would I contribute to the office if I were a full-time employee?

- What feedback would I provide to supervising personnel regarding the activities of the office?

- What feedback would I provide to other employees regarding their job performance?

- What feedback would I provide to myself regarding my job performance?
