In addition, the text incorporates current research and experience on prepracticum preparation, the importance of the initial meeting with students, the uses and abuses of the relationship between field instructor and student, how to guide and monitor the learning process, evaluation procedures, legal liability and ethical issues, and working with students where age, experience, gender, differing ethnicities, or the presence of a disability may need consideration.
