When preparing your internship report, you can use the evaluation scheme as a guide. You can find it here:
- Evaluation scheme for internship reports (click here!)
- For the formalities, please refer to the guidelines for academic work in the core study program (click here!)
Further information:
- Cover sheet (name, matriculation number, course, lecturer, semester, contact details, name of the internship site)
- Table of contents
- Introduction (e.g. relevance of the activity for the addressees, society, social work, as well as a brief description of what readers can expect and why)
- Brief description of the practice position.
Please do not copy Wikipedia entries or the position's brochures. Limit yourself to the essentials. Particularly important: Methodological and professional orientation and concept (e.g. also hard facts such as number of addressees, staffing ratio, aim of the measures, projects or organization and any special features), as well as legal bases and funding, - The internship
- The role of the intern (e.g. how presented to the target group, degree of independence, etc.)
- Training plan/training reality (the training plan does not have to be presented in full here, but there should be a comparison between planning and reality)
- Practical guidance (who and how and with what feedback)
- Key situations during the internship (see below for a more detailed explanation)
- Changes in your personality as a prospective specialist through/during the internship, but also: What strengths and development potential did you enter the internship with? How have your skills developed? In what way and how? What strengths and development potential do you currently have?
- Conclusion: Reflection on yourself and to the team,to the position, to the field, to social relevance. In addition, a reference to the introduction is usually useful)
The internship section is the main part of your report. It should therefore also be the largest. At the University of Kassel, we work with the concept of key situations. You will learn more about this in the accompanying seminars.
It is always important to link theory and practice. Provide professional reasons and include scientific literature in your assessments! The knowledge you have acquired in the specialist seminars must be visible here!
