For courses in Social Work Practicum / Field Experience in Social Work.

Theory and practice combine to help students understand, structure, implement, and evaluate practicum experiences.

The Social Work Practicum helps prepare  students for professional practice by providing a structured and yet  individualized map for gaining the competencies required of social work  professionals. The format integrates theory and practice to walk readers  through the process of acquiring knowledge, developing skills, and  enhancing social work values at both the BSW and MSW levels. The author  highlights social work practice themes and Council on Social Work  Education competencies and behaviors in a concise and usable way,  viewing all of these topics through the lens of practicum. The chapters  are sequenced to allow for ongoing professional development, while  clarifying expectations for applying knowledge and providing  experiential learning opportunities that lead to professional growth.

The 8th Edition includes an increased  emphasis on the preparation for social work practice. The author has  expanded and updated information on diversity and working across  differences; the use of technology; working with involuntary clients;  social work theories and models; communication skills; and the planned  change process.
