In many disciplines, the field experience is the culmination of learning, and the socialization of students into the profession. In social work education, the field experience is also the signature pedagogy, which brings theory to practice. To address the needs of a changing group of stakeholders, the School of Social Work began using multiple technology platforms including field web-based software, e-mail blasts, an e-learning platform, YouTube videos, revised web content, and Facebook page all combined to provide students, field instructors, and faculty with the information they need for field on a whenever, wherever, and however basis.En muchas disciplinas, la experiencia de prácticas es la culminación del aprendizaje, y la socialización de los estudiantes en la profesión. En el trabajo social educativo, la experiencia de prácticas es también la pedagogía primariamente, que lleva la teoría a la práctica. Para abordar las necesidades de un grupo cambiante de interesados, la Escuela de Trabajo Social comenzó a utilizar múltiples plataformas tecnológicas, incluyendo software de prácticas basado en web, tipos diferentes de correo electrónico, una plataforma de aprendizaje electrónico, videos de YouTube, contenido web revisado y página de Facebook. Todos estos recursos se combian para proporcionar a los estudiantes, instructores de prácticas, y la facultad, la información que necesitan en cualquier campo de intervención.

Field educators and social work students use technology in various realms of practice, including provision of services to clients and provision of supervision for students. This article identifies how professional boundary issues may arise when social workers, field educators, or students use technology. This article also explores four ways that field educators can educate and support students in relation to pre-empting and managing technology-related boundary issues: policy clarification, role modeling through interactions with clients and others, role modeling within supervisory relationship, and advocacy.

The authors reviewed 67 articles that discussed and/or tested human behavior theories from social work journals published in 2004 in order to assess the level and quality of theory progression. The articles were further sorted into Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) Foundation Curriculum content areas of HBSE, practice, policy, field education, values & ethics, diversity, populations-at-risk/social and economic justice, and research for purposes of categorization. Results indicated that HBSE and practice were by far the largest group of articles reviewed.Also found was that social work has a limited amount of theory discussion in the content areas of field, values and ethics, diversity, and populations-at-risk/social and economic justice. Thirty-three articles were found to demonstrate theory progression, eight articles presented new/emerging theories, and 26 articles discussed or critiqued theories without presenting evidence of theory progression.

Abstract Social work field education, the mandatory, practice-based component of accredited schools of social work, is in a state of crisis. Welfare state retrenchment has reduced the social and health service sectors’ capacity to provide field education placements. Concurrently, increasing student enrollment in and the expansion of social work programmes in the academy have increased the demand for field education. Whilst the service and academic sectors have developed a range of formal and informal relationships to cope with the crisis that often benefit workers in both domains, the implications for students, especially those who are Black and Minority Ethnic (BME), remain largely unknown. This article reports findings from institutional ethnographic research based on textual analyses and interviews with five BME students from a school of social work in Southern Ontario who were engaged in securing field education placement. A central finding of the study was that racial categories and hierarchies are reproduced across placement settings and in the sorting process of students into placement settings itself, adding to the work of BME social work students. The findings implicate the institutional practices and context of field education in the production of a racially stratified labour market in social work field education.
