Mindy Ritchie Posts: 8 10/6/2021	Mindy Ritchie Posts: 8 I am having trouble trying to get my interns to understand the concept of clocking in and out and staying under their designated 30 minute lunch time. Does anyone have a lesson for this or a form that they are using?

Erin Fogarty Posts: 18 10/7/2021	Erin Fogarty Posts: 18 Hi Mindy, While I don't have a specific lesson for it, but I have found with my interns class discussion and modeling this behavior has helped the most. We discuss about what a break is for, how being late from a break can effect their future pay check, how it can effect their other coworkers breaks if they come back late and we review the host business policy on breaks/write ups etc. Also during our orientation/classroom time we give the students lots of small practice brakes (10-15 mins) throughout the day to practice travel time and identify which interns may need to use timers or alarms to help them stay on time. If we really have an intern who is consistently late, they would get written up for not returning from their break on time.

Holly Opatick Posts: 99 12/5/2021	Holly Opatick Posts: 99 Hello All A few years ago I presented at the Project SEARCH conference 8 FREE Ways to Improve your Project SEARCH Experience. One of the ways was time and attendance tracking. The following is from the PowerPoint Side related to this topic. Time and Attendance tracking advice: Students clock in and out of the worksite using same or similar host site method Procedure requires individual code Instructor can track time accuracy Records attendance Option for classes who cannot use worksite timeclock Sample Apps: Timeclock Tracker, HoursTracker, TimeTracker The sites that I oversaw utilized the volunteer services time keeper for the hospital. It recorded when the intern clocked in and out and measured the amount of time spent in the internship. Interns clock in as soon as they enter the hospital and clock out before they left for the classroom each day.
