About the Roundtable

The TFEL project held a roundtable on Sharing Unique Practices for Field Supervision. The dialogue focused on these practices:

Practice 1: Including more voices in field education, such as service users and multiple field instructors.

Practice 2: Adopting creative and multiple supervision strategies (individual and group, working meetings, e-supervision) that reduce workload demands on field instructors and increase peer accountability.

Practice 3: Conducting peer supervision by MSW students to BSW students.

Practice 4: Including a skilled-based perspective where it is possible to break things down into smaller parts to be able to practice independently and then practice with a supervisor to get feedback.
