Employer Final Evaluation
Employers share their insights on student performance and development.
The final evaluation is an opportunity to give perspective to the internship and point out areas of strength and areas where students can improve their design skills.
Multiple Intelligences
In the Graphic Design program at Miami we use a multiple intelligences model to guide design education. While applied skills like concept, aesthetic, usability, and production are important for designers to develop, modern designers are called upon to be much more than “producers.” The multiple intelligences model allows us to facilitate learning and measure growth in five different areas. Not everyone will be strong in every area, so instead of performance excellence, evidence of growth is the most important measure of success.
The five intelligences we assess are:
Practical, Analytical, Creative, Emotional, and Social (PACES). Learn more about the PACES model at the Design Miami Ohio website.
Think through the internship as a whole and complete this review of the student’s performance. This evaluation should be completed no more than two weeks after the completion of the internship. Thank you for taking the time to be involved in this important process.
