Subject outline
In this subject students will have the opportunity to integrate different theoretical perspectives and skills by undertaking a supervised and supported field work placement. Students are placed in a human service organisation and are required to be experiential learners who can reflect critically on their practice and can demonstrate graduate level skills in a range of social work roles and tasks. Students attend 6 hours of seminars preparing for their final placement and in second semester students commence a 14-week placement under the supervision of a qualified social worker with regular contact and support directly and on line from an academic staff member. They also complete a detailed case analysis which is presented at integrative seminars.
