Reihe: Post-Qualifying Social Work Practice Series

This book is for busy social workers involved in supporting, enabling and assessing learners in the workplace. It has been written specifically to support those undertaking practice educator awards that meet the staged requirements of the Practice Educator Professional Standards (CSW, 2012), and will provide invaluable guidance and support to social workers who are new to a practice education role. It will also be of interest to more experienced practice educators seeking support to reflect critically on their practice and further develop their professional capability.

Challenging you to take a critical, evidence-informed approach to your thinking and your practice, this easy-to-read book has been updated to include new developments in social work education, with new chapters on building resilience within social work practice and working with marginal and failing learners. All other chapters and reading lists have also been updated, and activities revised to enhance learning.
