Midterm Feedback for SOWK 591
7 submitted of 5 didn’t completed survey Only 2 for SOWK 596, so no report available
Positive:
- Student-led discussions
- Opportunities to share about experiences
- Hearing other experiences
- Mindfulness activities
Constructive:
“More of an open-discussion/investigation on how we can assist our clients with a dilemma at their practicum. Similar to a brainstorming meeting, where we just throw out ideas on how to assist our classmates.”
Love hearing about… Things You Are All Learning
- “I’m able to learn about myself”
- “I can advocate for myself when needed.”
- “That I can get through this lol.”
- “I’ve learned that I like to participate in discussions.”
- “To be more open and sociable with my classmates. Ask important questions and be more intentional about what I want to know or get help with.”
