Your active participation as a moderator and/or evaluator is needed to continue the collegial environment that has been created since the early 1970s. All preceptors are required to serve as a moderator or evaluator.

Evaluators: You will need to be present in your scheduled room during your scheduled session. The moderator/evaluator schedule will be sent out via email and posted under the documents tab in SCHED. You will provide immediate feedback to your presenters, encourage other attendees to ask any questions they may have for the presenters, and complete online evaluation forms for the presenter.
Moderators: You will need to be present in your scheduled room during your scheduled session. The moderator/evaluator schedule will be sent out via email and posted under the documents tab in SCHED. Your job is to keep order within the room and remain on schedule. If a presenter is being asked a lot of questions and their 3 minutes is getting close give a reminder. Only allow presenters to present at their designated time on the schedule. Do not allow a presenter to go early if another presenter is not present during their time. This will allow others to plan which presentations they would like to see. Each presenter gets 12 minutes to present and 3 minutes for Q&A.
