About this product

Product Information

The ideal companion for the first field/practicum experience, this text guides students through their placement while reinforcing the link between social work theory and practice. It includes detailed information on the field/practicum experience from start to finish. Topics covered include establishing a professional identity; working safely; making the most of practicum supervision; organizational issues; micro, mezzo, and macro social work practice; social work and the legal system; and terminating effectively from the practicum. To make the material more accessible, the book follows the progress of five students--Ben, Cameron, Corina, Lauren and Rosa--as they move through their own practicum experiences. Their real-life stories help spur discussion while allowing students to apply the knowledge, skills, and/or issues presented in the text. To further stimulate critical thinking and discussion, the text provides discussion questions and practice applications in each unit. Many of the applications were developed in conjunction with agency-based field instructors.

    Required text

    Required for school and there are few errors for example on page 40 it reads to ehances stressors when the entire chapter is about decreasing stress and self-care. Major correction needed. I do no like the vinettes they help to under real life dilemma that students had. I am able to sit and read the book becuase of that others it would not another factual textbook. So good job on the vinettes.
