This book captures a unique moment in time, relatively early into the COVID-19 pandemic, when the implications and consequences of the pandemic remained unclear and largely unpredictable. The contributors to this volume contemplate the impact of the pandemic on our relationships with children and youth, child and youth serving systems, and broader issues in society that directly relate to childhood and youth. The essays collected in this volume cover a variety of perspectives that range from systemic racism in child-serving institutions to the politics of childhood during a pandemic, and the psychological and even neurological impacts of lockdowns, public restrictions and social isolation. Beyond capturing the moment in time, the contributors also focused on the long-term; they contemplated how the evolving situation might affect the way we think about child and youth services and our relationships to children, their families and their communities. From the very theoretical to the concrete and the practical, this volume provides current thinking and practice in relation to pandemic-impacted residential care settings, education and schools, hospital settings, communities, practitioners, and more. This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal Child & Youth Services.

Field education has long been an integral and valuable component of the social work curriculum for students. Field is the place where students integrate their classroom learnings about core social work theories, principles, values, and ethical behaviors into practice. It is recognized as the signature pedagogy of social work education. Transforming the Field Education Landscape: Student Handbook on Field Education is designed to accompany social work students in their field education journey as they move towards becoming practitioners. It has become apparent in recent years that there is an increasing need to develop new ways of conceptualizing and actualizing field education in response to a dramatically changing academic and practice environment. Our social environments have become much more complex and as a result students are being called upon to address this new reality in their field experiences as they prepare for practice. In addition, social workers are increasingly involved in remote service delivery. Advances in technology are making services more accessible through the use of e-counselling, e-therapy, and videoconferencing options. Many social work students have experienced and will continue to experience practicum placements that involve remote or hybrid models of field learning and/or service delivery. Collectively these demands and changes mean that the way field education is structured and delivered needs to change.This first open access undergraduate and graduate level field education handbook aims to equip students with a better understanding of the changed environment for social work practice and policy. The Handbook is focused on timely and important topics in social work practice and field education such as anti-racism, anti-colonialism, equity, diversity, inclusion, health placements, interprofessional practice, remote field instruction and supervision, self-care and wellness, trauma- and resilience-informed practice, practice research, spirituality, and the transition of students from school to work. The Handbook offers several unique features by focusing on how to guide students to address critical challenges in social work practice.The Handbook is of relevance to the current and future generation of social work students, scholars, practitioners, and policy makers. Throughout the Handbook, social work scholars, field educators, collaborators and practitioners in the book offer new insights, practice experiences, case studies, and reflections that offer potential to transform student learning in social work field education. The Handbook advances a transformational approach that will enhance student learning in practicum by accompanying them in their field education journey by creating new understandings of field education.
