Abstract

This chapter describes a field director's revision of a field experience placement system and model for a teacher education program at a two-year institution. In this case study, the field director documented the conversion from a paper system to using a learning management system to support the field experience process of 324 students. Results from this case study indicate a positive correlation between the components of the process and the features of the learning management system. In addition, findings from the case study reveal that the learning management system provides additional benefits for program assessment. The conversion of a paper system to a learning management system is documented as well as the implications for other aspects of teacher education assessment.
