Alongside setting expectations, formal evaluations that allow students time to reflect on their skills and what else they’d like to work on are critical in effective supervising. Evaluations should be done mid-semester to allow students time to improve on skills and alter behavior. Feedback and recognition should occur on the spot as supervisors observe behavior. - Step-By-Step Evaluation (pdf)
Ensuring you are providing valuable feedback, asking the right questions, and supporting your student employees can help them develop and be more career ready and also help them perform at a higher level within their role as a student employee. - Evaluation Worksheet (pdf)
