SOWK 4213 - Field Seminar II

Two credit hours.

Field Seminar II is the second of two seminars that provide the student with the opportunity to integrate knowledge and insights developed in the classroom by exploring the field experience through the group process. The Generalist Intervention Model of engagement, assessment, planning, implementation, evaluation and termination is the basis for student learning and self-evaluation. Seminar II builds on the strengths and experience of Seminar I to further student development toward full integration of knowledge, skills and values in generalist practice. Group discussion and process, the basis and coordination of skills, establishment of values, collaboration with colleagues, and community visits provide the framework to identify as a professional social worker. Student must receive a “B” or higher to move on to graduate.
