Field Placements for Administration Students: An Agency's View
Abstract
Field work education of social administration students is discussed
from the point of view of management & & supervision. Field
work is analyzed within the context of the philosophy of social work
education, the agency's resources & potential for offering field
experience, the service organization as a system, & the service
delivery format. The program offered by the Northwestern Instit of
Psychiatry, an in-/outpatient psychiatric hospital in Fort Washington,
Pa, is described in detail, showing the phases of student field
education as a sequential process: preparation for offering the
practicum opportunity, student orientation to the agency, selecting
task assignments, supervision, & evaluation of student
performance. Modified HA.
