Description
Field instruction is the capstone of the USF Social Work Program -
the final and most critical component. Field is a required course
for all social work majors. Field is where all the elements of the
program curriculum are tested, applied, and integrated. Field is
where theory intersects with practice. Social work practice requires
the integration of knowledge, values, and skills applied in diverse
settings. SOcial work education icludes scholarship and pedagogy to
support learning theory, laboratory and experiential exercises to
learn skills, case studies to improve skills and define values and
concludes with field to integrate all of the above with practice. It
provides students a "hands-on" opportunity to explore what is within
their circle of knowledge, to sharpen their awareness of what they
don't know, to supportively encounter ethical and values dilemmas,
evaluate their practice and to plan for continued professional
growth. Prerequisites: students enrolling in SWK
