The first weeks of the seminar we learned about the importance of social worker. We were faced with challenges into critical thinking, peer discussions, and most importantly, the relevance of social work.  The 6 weeks of seminar we learned about expectations and realities, roles and responsibilities, professional expectations, time management but most importantly we learned about social work values and ethics. We were faced with challenges and peer discussions in which we needed to be respectful, encouraging, and supporters to our peers. For myself, learning about managing expectations and realities were very important, we are often faced with what we believe and expect will happen however, when it does not happen the way we expect, it throws us off, it changes the way we react to a situation. Throughout the 5 weeks of seminars, ive learned how to prioritize and balance personal/family life while also recognizing in self care actions and behaviors. Through active role-playing, and active listening, we learned about the importance of community. We learned that through community we are provided with perspectives into viewing the social justice system, and civil right across all practices. ]]> 2022-10-11 19:37:52 UTC https://padlet.com/a240_f888/to1lqb856tu6ru14/wish/2335896596 a240_f888 https://padlet.com/a240_f888/to1lqb856tu6ru14/wish/2335911853 As i reflect upon my field placement, I have learned several things that have impacted the way that i think, and the way that i hope to manage my future patients. Seminar and journaling have helped developed my critical thinking while working with homelessness and parents in need. For my future work practice, i hope to be able to change the government system to help and provide people with the proper resources needed. 

Looking into my Pre-course self assessment, i reflected a lot upon Confidence in knowing the value of my profession. Through the field experience, I was shown daily on the importance of putting others needs firs regardless of social class, poverty, and injustices.

The acknowledgment of the institutional goals that reflect with my academic integrity. Competencies that are regarding of a demonstration of ethical and professional behavior that i hope will catapult my goal to assist clients, social workers and agents. The knowledge of the code of ethics is ultimately helping to provide a framework to ideal social worker behavior. ]]> 2022-10-11 19:51:25 UTC https://padlet.com/a240_f888/to1lqb856tu6ru14/wish/2335911853
