SW 516 Field Seminar I
Field Seminar I provides students with an intentionally designed peer-learning community where they can critically evaluate the integration of generalist knowledge, skills, and values learned in courses with their field education experience. Through active reflection, that includes constructive feedback from peers and faculty, students reflect on their application of course-related knowledge and skills, identifying areas of strength and areas for improvement. Additionally, students will examine how personal values and spiritual beliefs impact practice decisions and ethical decision-making, assessing how those values and beliefs align with the profession's mission, ethical principles, and practice standards. Finally, a core activity in this and other seminary courses discussed later are regularly scheduled seminars where students will meet virtually with all faculty to critically reflect on and dialogue about how content presented in different courses integrates with their field experience, and evaluate how classroom and field experiences are shaping their identity as a professional social worker.
