Features: "Teaching Social Work Internship" is a crucial yet relatively weak aspect of social work education in China. The weakness stems from three main reasons: the lack of relevant social work professional institutions for student internships, the absence of professionally trained teachers and institutional supervisors, and the lack of textbooks to provide guidance and reference for social work internships. Among these three factors, the lack of textbooks is the most significant issue. The purpose of this book is to address the current situation and provide a reference textbook for social work internship teaching in various institutions across the country. It elaborates and introduces in detail the meaning and objectives of social work internships, the teaching theories and principles of social work internships, the content and forms of social work internships, the roles and responsibilities in social work internships, social work internship supervision, the teaching process of social work internships, and the process of institutional internship arrangements. It is a practical and actionable textbook. Target Audience: Researchers engaged in social work research, practitioners in social work, and college and university students studying social work.
