How to enter your field experience hours into LiveText:

THE "NEW," IMPROVED METHOD

First, log on to LIVE TEXT and click on the "Forms" link on the left sidebar. If you have a form listed there, then click on "take form" in order to enter field experience hours. This "private form" approach is the new method that will completely replace the old method, which is described below. This old method will remain available for a short while for those who are having difficulty with the new method. The new method is MUCH better, because you are able to return to each of the forms that you have submitted so that you can see what you entered.

See the reference above to "Entering Field Experience Hours." Mentioned there is a link to a video tutorial that explains what you need to know.

Directions for the "old" method:

Log onto http://college.livetext.com/misk5/formz/public/14922/jxw2wbE7ht  

• Submit 1 form per field experience unless instructed otherwise.
• If you also need to submit your hours and reflection to your instructor, you must do so in a separate document (use submit for review). If you do not do so your instructor will not get a copy of the information.
• Your school contact may be the instructor, school supervisor, cooperating teacher, or administrator.  (first and last)
• Make sure you use the full name of the school (Pierre Capdau not Capdau).
• Entering your reflection is optional.
• If you are unsure of the percentages of students (e.g., male/female) estimate numbers
• HINT: Carry a blank FEX form with you to your field experience site so you can capture the data you will need to enter later on.

*Please note: If you are using this "old" method, you might consider printing out a copy of each of your FEX forms before you submit them.
