SW 526 Field Seminar II

Field Seminar II continues to leverage the intentionally designed peer-learning community, providing students with a supportive environment where they can dialogue with other students and faculty about their experiences in field education. In this class, students are encouraged to analyze how knowledge, skills, and values learned in classes apply to field work and how their personal values and beliefs are impacting practice and contributing to ethical decision-making and the provision of culturally responsive social work services. Additionally, students will explore their developing professional social work identity, identifying how they are assimilating the profession's mission statement, core values, and practice standards into their day-to-day understanding of what it is to be a professional social worker and how this alignment is demonstrated in actual practice. Finally, this course will continue to include 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 continue to shape their identity as a professional social worker.
