(Bola/sola) This is a virtual learning placement from 01/02/21 to 26/02/21
Instructions for Virtual Learning Placement
XXXXXXXXXXto XXXXXXXXXX
Dear Student,
A timetable has been put together to cover you for the placement period 1st February to 26th February. The content includes topics and subjects pivotal to your Professional Values in Practice (See APPENDIX 1) that you will be assessed on when you start the physical placement.
You will need to keep a daily record of hours and an E-Portfolio of your learning. Hours are entered in the Practice Assessment Document (PAD) and you must complete an EVIDENCE OF LEARNING CONFIRMATION SHEET (See APPENDIX 2). These daily evidence of leaning conformation sheets along with the E-portfolio will form the evidence of learning for your Assessor against the Professionals Values when you attend the physical placement.
HOURS – Monday to Friday 8hrs per day
In the first week between students in the South West, South East and MID you all have differing commitments to attendance at the Trusts for Induction days. Please remember that these days are MANDATORY and therefore must be attended. You need to record in your PAD 8hrs of learning for each day, whether that be at the actual physical induction in person, or through online learning that has been set on the timetable. So, for example.
SOUTH WEST students – have a full 5 days of induction training set by Basildon Hospital & NELFT, so there 40hrs for the week.
SOUTH EAST & MID students – you have just 1 day face to face induction, so you need to make the rest of the daily hours up from online learning which is indicated on the timetable.
SOUT EAST (Southend) students also have a Manual Handling morning on the XXXXXXXXXX
REFELCTIVE WRITING in The Practice Assessment Document (PAD)
It is expected that over the course of the four weeks you will have recorded a minimum of 8 reflective writing accounts in your PAD. The opportunities for these are indicated on the timetable in RED. You can do more and are encouraged to do so for learning days you have via the face-to-face induction. You will not have a supervisor’s signature for these, as your supervisor in the physical placement can review and sign.
Evidence of Learning Confirmation Sheets (APPENDIX 2)
These need to be completed daily, and stored. Its advisable to complete them electronically. They do not have to be greatly detailed, just a clear summary of what you undertook, and the learning that you acquired.
E-Portfolio
The E-Portfolio is your personal electronic copy of learning materials you have gathered, notes you have taken, and activities you have undertaken. It will also include the Evidence of Learning Confirmation Sheets that you will complete for each day. How you put the portfolio together is entirely up to you. It can just be an electronic folder where you store the information. Please just ensure that it is organised and that you can access it easily. Maybe look at a free Dropbox account to store, or similar. It would be helpful to be able to access from your phone, so therefore easier to take into the physical placement to show your assessor.
