1. Common Core 3.0 Online Learning Classroom Skill Building Field Activities

2. The Role of the Field Advisor in CC3.0 30 minute module Version 1.0 | 2015

3. Learning Objectives Knowledge K1. The trainee will be able to identify the 5 practice areas in core training and describe how they contribute to child welfare practice: a)Engagement b)Assessment c)Case Management and Service Delivery d)Monitoring and Adapting e)Transitions K2. The trainee will be able to describe the training modalities (online, classroom, and field) and levels (100 and 200) used in CC3.0. K3. The trainee will be able to identify the role of the CC3.0 field advisor K4. The trainee will be able to define Transfer of Learning K5. The trainee will be able to describe the purpose of collecting data from the field activities Values V1. The trainee will value using a wide range of training modalities to support transfer of learning for adult learners. V2. The trainee will value data collection as it informs evaluation of Common Core 3.0

4. The shift from CC2.0 to CC3.0 CC2.0 content was organized by key topic areas identified as priority topics for new social workers. All CC2.0 content delivered in the classroom

5. The California Child Welfare Core Practice Model (CPM) Theoretical Framework Values Casework components Practice Elements Practice Behaviors

6. The California Child Welfare Core Practice Model (CPM)

7. Practice Elements – How we do it – Engagement – Inquiry/Exploration – Advocacy – Teaming – Accountability – Workforce development and support

8. Practice Behaviors Action-oriented Clearly describe the interactions between social workers and families, children, youth, young adults, communities, and tribes Provide guidance to social worker about how they will practice social work using the practice model

9. Re-Imagining Core Training Focus on Practice Areas as a framework for the training Sequencing content to reinforce training after some time in the field Use of multiple training modalities – Online knowledge based training – Classroom based learning – Field learning

10. Modalities On-line knowledge based training Classroom based learning Field learning

11. Training Blocks Practice Areas – Foundation – Engagement – Assessment – Case Planning and Service Delivery – Monitoring and Adapting – Transition

12. Sequenced Content 100 level – E-learning – Classroom Field Activity Completion 200 level eLearning Field 200 level Classroom

13. Adult Learning – what we know Spaced learning – Shown to be a more effective way for people to learn, practice, and transfer what they have learned Blended Learning Coaching Skill Based-interactive in-person training Skill practice

14. Sequenced Content 100 level content – New social workers would start with a series of 100 level content courses for each practice area. This would provide the entry level knowledge social workers should have as soon as possible after hire. 100 level

15. Sequenced Content Field Activities – Following completion of 100 level content, social workers would be introduced to the field through case assignment or directed field experiences with supervisors or coaches to support field-based learning. 100 levelField

16. Sequenced Content 200 level – Following completion of 100 level content, social workers would be introduced to the field through case assignment or directed field experiences with supervisors or coaches to support field-based learning. After some field experiences social workers would receive additional 200 level training focusing on application of knowledge in practice. 100 levelField200 level

17. A Closer Look at Field Activities and the Role of the Field Advisor Field learning activities require the participation of the new social worker and a Common Core 3.0 (CC3.0) field advisor. Both participants play a vital role in the transfer of learning process. Counties will work with their affiliated training organizations to identify CC3.0 field advisors to support new social workers in the field activities.

18. Transfer of Learning Transfer of learning is the degree to which the trainees apply the knowledge, skills, and attitudes learned in training when they return to the job, and the degree to which the new learning is maintained over time (Baldwine and Ford, 1988)

19. Role of the CC3.0 Field Advisor Promote a learning environment and utilize appropriate coaching strategies, tools, and techniques to promote desirable and sustainable growth for the new social worker Promote knowledge and skill development that aligns with the desired practice Track completion, document information needed for evaluation components of CC3.0 and provide information to CDSS, the Regional Training Academy (RTA), or enter information into a learning management system.

20. The Field Activities

21. Data Collection Field Activity Survey Completion – As part of the CC3.0 evaluation process, new social workers (trainees) and field advisors are asked to complete surveys for field activities in the Assessment Block and the Engagement Block. – Only need to complete Assessment Block Activity Surveys at this time.

22. Data Collection Field activity survey are not designed nor intended to provide feedback on individuals’ performance and may not be used in making personnel decisions.

23. Data Collection Trainee Perception of Field Activities and Field Advisor

24. Data Collection How will we collect the information? – Social workers and field advisors are requested to complete the field activity surveys via the links provided in the field guide. Social workers and field advisors will be prompted to complete each activity survey at the completion of the activity. When will information collected? – It is recommended that the social worker and field advisor complete the survey for each respective field activity as soon as possible after completion of the activity, or within two weeks at the latest.

25. Thank you for taking the Role of the Field Advisor in CC3.0 eLearning!
