Syracuse University Part-Time Faculty-SWK 671 M700 Field Instruction I with VFX Spring 2025 in Syracuse, New York
Falk College seeks a part-time instructor to teach SWK 671 M700 Field Instruction I with Virtual Field Experience (VFX) (3 credits) in the Spring 2025 (01/06/2025-05/06/2025) semester. Course Description: Supervised (simulated) practice experience to apply knowledge, social work principles, values, and methods and obtain increasing competence and skill for processional practice. Course co-requisite: SWK 601Course Overview: The virtual field experience is designed to build social work competencies through participation in purposeful simulation events that mirror real-life situations and which are nested within a simulated agency environment. Simulations tackle broad complex competencies by partializing them into component skills and developing those skills in a graduated/scaffolded manner. Students develop significant applied skills prior to actually beginning a live agency field placement. Students will participate in asynchronous and synchronous activities throughout the semester. Course Requirements: The virtual field experience is meant to complement the in-agency internship that students complete during SWK 672. This is a foundational experience intended to prepare practicing social workers to engage in social work practice. Class meets Tuesdays & Thursdays, 6:00-8:00 PM EST, with async content management (async opens 01/6/2025, one week before live class session).
