Assessing Student Performance in Field Instruction

Abstract
This study explores the use of a 25-item rating scale for assessing student performance in field instruction. Thirty-one field instructor and student dyads assessed the student's social work skills before and after first year field instruction. Both students and field instructors ratings reported increased skill at the end of the year. Students with prior social work experience rated themselves as more skilled at both pre- and post-test than students entering with no experience. The agreement between student and field instructor ratings was lower at the end of the year than at the begininning of the year.
