Abstract:
Field work is an integral component of social work education. Field education provides students opportunities to integrate theory into practice. Human service organizations provide excellent opportunities for students to experience social realities and practice social work methods. Field educators play crucial role in student’s learning process and significantly contribute to their professional development. It is imperative to have an open dialogue between social work academicians and social work practitioners on effective implementation of field practicum. . What should students and supervisors expect each other? What are mutual concerns? This article is based on a workshop conducted to discuss about concerns, strengths and hopes of field educators and academicians.
