Only field experiences that are part of an approved PDP can be banked. Field experiences completed as a part of coursework may not be banked. A maximum of 50 hours may be banked. Banking only counts for Internship I, unless special conditions apply and are approved in writing by the instructor. Mentors and Supervisor: Candidates beginning the program (not the internship) in the summer of 2016 and from that point forward are required to work with the district and university to identify a mentor during the first semester in the program. This person should be a building administrator, ideally a principal. When beginning the internship, candidates will work with the district and university to identify two people to serve as co-mentors. One of these mentors may be the mentor chosen at the beginning of the program. One of the mentors must be in the candidate’s school/building. One of the mentors must meet the criteria for being a Highly Qualified Mentor (criteria contained in the MOU). When candidates begin their internships, they will be assigned a Supervisor/Instructor from Clemson University (this should be the person who is teaching the course). The Supervisor will work with each candidate to develop or refine and coordinate the Professional Development Plan to meet with his/her mentors, to conduct building walk-throughs with the candidate, and to provide ongoing feedback to the candidate in response to the candidate’s submitted and observed work. The supervisor will also schedule and coordinate routine meetings of all intern candidates as appropriate. Internship Professional Development Plan: Within the first three weeks of each of the two internships, the candidate will submit an internship professional development plan (PDP) to the internship supervisor. See page 30 for specifics.
