Before completing the evaluation form, students and preceptors should review the objectives and sub-objectives. While students and preceptors should comment on each of the seven course objectives, it is not necessary to write comments about each sub-objective. It is better to provide specific and detailed comments about a few sub-objectives than to write broadly about many. Each objective should be awarded one of the following ratings: Midterm: Satisfactory Progress (SP): The student consistently demonstrates sufficient knowledge, and skill and ability to safely practice or achieve the objective with an average level of teaching support and guidance; or the level of performance is what the instructor would expect of an average student at that level and point in time; and the instructor reasonably anticipates that if the student continues at the current pace of practice and achievement, the student should be able to fully meet the objective at the end of the course. Needs Development(ND): The student demonstrates sufficient knowledge and ability to safely practice or achieve the objective, but requires more teaching support and guidance; or the student demonstrates knowledge but needs more practice to achieve the competency; or the level of performance is below what the instructor would expect of the average student at that level and point in time; and the instructor reasonably anticipates that if the student focuses his/her learning in the required area, and gains sufficient practice, the student has the potential to meet the objective at the end of the course. Unsatisfactory Progress (UP): The student does not consistently demonstrate sufficient knowledge, or skill, or ability to safely practice or achieve the objective, even with constant, intensive teaching support and guidance; or the level of performance is far below what the instructor would expect of the average student at that level and point in time; and the instructor reasonably anticipates that if the student continues at the current pace of practice and achievement, the student is not likely to meet the objective at the end of the course.
Final: Satisfactory (S): The student consistently demonstrates sufficient knowledge, and skill and ability to safely practice or achieve the objective with an average level of teaching support and guidance; or the level of performance is what the instructor would expect of an average student at that level. Unsatisfactory (U): The student does not consistently demonstrate sufficient knowledge, or skill, or ability to safely practice or achieve expected objectives, even with constant or intensive teaching support and guidance; or the level of performance is far below what the instructor would expect of the average student at that level.

Clinical Instructor Summative Comments: Marissa’s confidence is exactly where it should mid semester, it will be nice to watch her progress in confidence over this next half. Marissa does not shy away from opportunities and should continue to do so. Marissa confidently and competently administered medications for 2 patients and was able to identify the need to hold an insulin for a low blood sugar. I would encourage Marissa to continue to work more with OT and PT to understand more the role they play in chronic disease management. Wonderful job thus far!
