ELC Notes:

• In ELC, students should be logging their hours on a daily basis. They will then submit those hours once per week, through ELC, for supervisor approval. Only one supervisor may approve the hours. We highly recommend approving hours during your weekly supervision. It is expected that Practicum Instructors approve student hours on a weekly basis. For help with Time Approval, visit your Learning Space in ELC and click on the "OG MSW" tab to view Simmons-specific training materials, such as videos about logging and approving hours.

• Important Notes

  • Student Learning Plans, Evaluations, and hour approvals will be completed in ELC. Students also use ELC to submit Process Recordings to their Practicum Liaison, after you have noted your feedback on them (outside of the ELC system).

Assignments begin with the student. You will not be able to see any assignments (Learning Plan, Evaluation, logged hours, and End of Year Hour Report) until the student logs into ELC and sends them to you. If you do not see an assignment in your account, please first contact your student and make sure they send it to you.

Only one Practicum Instructor may complete and sign assignments. If you are co-supervising a student, please be sure the student knows to whom they should send their assignments. After these are completed, the student can share them with the second Instructor via the "Share" button in ELC.
