Autumn Roesch-Marsh

I am a qualified social worker with a passion for social work education and working with children and their families. I am a Senior Fellow of the Higher Education Academy and teach across postgraduate and undergraduate courses. I have a keen interest in practice and research informed teaching that is experiential and I am interested in developing scholarship in the area of learning and teaching. My teaching interests include child and family social work, community social work, creative practice and social work skills and values. These values are reflected in the work I did with colleagues for the Review of Social Work Education, Inquiry Area 4: Philosophies of Learning in Social Work Education. My book A Guide to Therapeutic Childcare, co-authored with Dr Ruth Emond and Dr Laura Steckley, draws on my practice and teaching experiences and illustrates my practical and research informed approach to teaching and writing.
