Helpful notes

  • To view your schedule, go to Scheduling & Rotation Schedule, and select the appropriate rotation group. You can filter your view based on the rotation date group or other criteria.
    • You can select the snapshot next to the student name in your schedule to see more information about your student.
  • Students are told to contact you 1-2 weeks ahead of their start date for first-day instructions, etc.
  • Students will upload their assignments on CORE ELMS. You will receive email notices regarding uploaded assignments. Required assignments with rubrics must be graded in the Assignments tab. You are welcome to hand-grade other projects if you prefer. Everything uploaded by students should be completely de-identified (HIPAA).
  • CORE ELMS protects student confidentiality by not releasing preceptor performance data until at least three students have entered evaluations for that rotation. After that, aggregate data is provided. If you want general feedback we are happy to provide it verbally after the rotation. A hard copy of the evaluation they will complete on line at the end of each rotation can be found in the back of the rotation manual. It is good practice to verbally assure that this has been done prior to discussing your final evaluation/grade with the student. If you have any concerns about the student being in jeopardy of failing the rotation, please notify our office in advance so we can provide support and guidance.
  • When completing an evaluation for a student, you may work on it and Save Changes until you have it done. Once you are ready for the student and the experiential staff at the School to be able to view it in CORE ELMS, please Submit it. If you need to make a change after submitting an evaluation please contact the course coordinator.
  • For most rotations, you will receive automatically-generated emails with links directly to the midpoint and final evaluations when they become available. You can also log in and check for pending evaluations. Reminders will automatically be sent until evaluations are complete.
