Greetings field colleagues! I am reaching out today to request participation in a qualitative research study I am conducting that focuses on the impact of COVID-19 on field directors and field education. Interviews will be conducting in a semi-structured way and are anticipated to last around 40 minutes. Questions can be emailed to this researcher at any time.
Description of the Project:
This project is designed to understand field directors' perspectives on field education and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. To qualify for participation faculty members must currently be employed in higher education in an accredited social work program. Participants must hold the title of Field Director, Assistant Field Director, Field Coordinator, or Assistant Field Coordinator.
