Narrative:

While flight instructing; training a licensed pilot in stalls; stall awareness; and stall recoveries; carburetor heat was not applied. The outside air temperatures were sufficient enough to produce carburetor ice. The engine lost power; and best glide was established. Time allotted for three restart attempts; checking carburetor heat; fuel; mags; etc... While gliding the plane successfully into a nice field; instructing a 'real time' engine out procedure; and calling out restart checks; the carburetor heat did not clear the ice. A successful soft field landing was executed with no incident. This was a checkout/currency flight; wanting to review all phases of flight for eventual solo. While intensely instructing; and calling out entry and recovery procedures; I failed to verify carburetor heat was indeed on. In unusual attitudes; and stall recovery training; a more thorough briefing on the importance in the use of applying carburetor heat should have been reviewed. In longer reductions of power; such as in stall series training; especially in dew point temperature ranges that are conducive to carburetor icing; training the use of carburetor heat should be stressed by all flight instructors and pilots alike.the aircraft was flown back from the location of the forced landing with no incident.

Title: A C150 Instructor conducting a checkout with a licensed pilot failed to select carburetor heat during stall training which resulted in the engine quitting. A successful off airport landing followed unsuccessful inflight start attempts.
