1. The articles must be current or dated within the past 5 years.

2. Do not simply paste the article abstract in the annotated bibliography paper. Annotations must be your summary of the article. The summary must include any research findings that were included in the article. (Do not state that the authors “conducted a study” without providing a short summary of their findings.)

3. Do notpaste the Annotated Bibliography in your Final Paper. The Annotated Bibliography simply provides information that will contribute to the Research Paper – Final Paper.

Requirements

1. Include the full source citation at the beginning of each summary, following current APA format guidelines.

2. Provide sufficient information in the summary so the reader knows what the article contributes to the Research Paper – Final Paper. For example, if you mention a study, also include a summary of the relevant findings. To say, “The authors conducted a study” without an explanation of what they found offers no information.

3. List the sources alphabetically according to the first author’s last name.

4. Include a title page.

5. A References page IS NOT required since you are already listing your sources.

/in /by

 

Throughout the past nine weeks, you have had the ability to apply social work practice skills in a real-world setting. At the end of your placement, your supervisor completed a final evaluation of your practice skills.

Having had the chance to review your final evaluation, you will now synthesize the results of your evaluation to help you self-assess your field education experience. By performing the self-assessment, you will evaluate your professional development as a future social worker.

For this assignment, reflect on your field education experience. Consider the skills that you have developed and how they might contribute to your professional identity as a social worker. Reflect on what you had hoped to learn in your concentration year experience.

As you review your evaluation, the opportunity to engage in personal professional development should remain a consideration for the remainder of your program.

For this Assignment, reflect on your field education experience. Review the results of your final evaluation and reflect on what you would like to gain in future practice experiences.

Note: You should receive your final evaluation from you field instructor.

The Assignment (4–5 pages):

  • Explain whether you demonstrated social work practice skills throughout your field education experience, including a description of each social work practice skill and the measure(s) provided in the final evaluation.
  • Explain how participation in your field education course might help you prepare for a career in social work.
  • Describe potential areas where you might need improvement in relation to social work practice skills.
  • Explain how you might address those areas as you continue to develop as a professional social worker.
  • Explain how you have grown as a professional during this process.
  • Propose personal action plans that you can continue into your professional career.
