Placements afford candidates the chance to showcase their knowledge and pedagogical skills in classroom environments with experienced teachers. Below you find helpful resources for each stakeholder in the field experience process.

Mentor teachers play a pivotal role in cultivating the next generation of educators
and act as interpreters for the policies and procedures of the school district, school,
and classroom. Mentor teachers are asked to review materials and equipment available
for planning and provide ongoing feedback to candidates. Mentor teachers complete
observations and evaluations based on the candidate's program through Anthology, the
College of Education's assessment system. More information is emailed once placements
are confirmed.
Qualifications
Education: Bachelor of Education degree in an area relevant to the candidate’s subject matter and grade band
Licensure: Educator license in an area relevant to the candidate’s subject matter and grade band
Teaching Experience: Three years in Ohio or four years in Michigan of teaching in an area relevant to the candidate’s subject matter and grade band.
Through feedback, observations, and evaluations, supervisors offer experience and objective perspectives on the effectiveness of planning, instruction, assessment, and the classroom environment.
Qualifications
- Education: Master’s degree in an area relevant to the candidate’s subject matter and grade band
- Licensure: Educator license in an area relevant to the candidate’s subject matter and grade band

The JHCOE uses Anthology, a digital portfolio system, to assess student performance based on professional standards within a field experience. The student, mentor teacher, and field supervisor use the platform in various ways: tracking hours, conducting and viewing observations and evaluations, and completing surveys and assessments.
Confirmation emails from Anthology are sent to all stakeholders once field placements are arranged.
Mentor Teachers should save the original email as it has links to helpful resources designed to help you navigate the Anthology platform and conduct field observations and other assessments.
