For social work educators, practitioners, and human services administrators, Nadel (social work, Iona College) et al. compile 14 essays that provide an introduction to service learning as a social work modality by combining discussion of theoretical background, practical experience, and research-based outcomes data. Chapters cover pedagogy, and service-learning activities in social work courses, such as those on social welfare policy and services, youth development agencies, research, oral history projects, human diversity, general education, and an immersion experience at a summer camp for HIV-infected and affected families. Outcomes assessment and civic engagement are the subjects of the final sections. The book does not include discussion of the field practicum. Contributors are from social work programs around the US. The book originated in May 2003 at the Invitational Conference on Service Learning in Social Work Education, sponsored by the U. of Nebraska at Omaha, and half of the chapters in the volume came out of presentations given there.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Service learning and social work education comprise an exciting, yet underutilized, partnership. This book represents the first comprehensive overview of this active and empowering approach to learning in social work. Both educators and practitioners will discover conceptual and practical guidance for developing productive community-based projects. Often envisioned as located at the midpoint on a continuum from volunteer work to internship, service learning combines the opportunity to serve with the opportunity to learn. It offers community agencies a chance to collaborate with academic colleagues to meet identified community needs, frequently with an explicit social justice dimension. The contributors illustrate how service learning facilitates students' understanding and interacting with community members as partners, not clients. Service learning encourages students to use critical thinking skills to reflect on their work and its implications. This combination of study-action-reflection in conjunction with course content is highly effective.The book explores its subject from several perspectives. The first section serves as a conceptual and theoretical orientation to service learning in social work. The second section offers models that illustrate many ways of implementing service learning across the components of the social work curriculum. The final two parts of the book focus on evaluation and service learning in the broader context of civic engagement. Applies the service-learning pedagogical approach to the social work curriculum. This work aims familiarize social work educators and practitioners with the approach's conceptual and theoretical underpinnings, to illustrate how service learning may be implemented in the Council on Social Work Education curriculum content areas.
