    Greetings social work colleagues!
    I am sending this message today to request your participation in a quantitative, exploratory research study my colleagues, Dana Holcomb, DSW, LMSW, Erin Johnson, LMSW, and I are conducting that focuses on the use of technology within practicum education. Specifically, this research focuses on the use of asynchronous supervision to support students in practicum education, methods of onboarding/supporting agency supervisors, and ways to connect and support practicum faculty. The survey below will take approximately 15-20 minutes to complete. 
     
    Questions can be emailed to this researcher at any time (kmfree@umich.edu).   
    To qualify for participation faculty members must currently be employed in higher education in a CSWE accredited social work program. Participants must hold the title of Practicum/Field Director, Assistant Practicum/Field Director, Practicum/Field Coordinator, Assistant Practicum/Field Coordinator. Only one person per institution should complete the survey information for your program.
