Synopsis
Does social work education and training make any difference to students' practice? In this book Jenny Secker describes a typology of three approaches to practice derived from the accounts of their work offered at key stages of training by 21 social work students. In describing the typology of approaches the author charts the students' struggle to make use of theory in practice, and puts forward an explanation for the problems they encountered in doing so. The question of why some students were able to overcome the problems they encountered while the majority were unable to do so is then addressed. In particular, the part played in the development of the students' practice by academic teaching and by different practice teaching styles is explored. Throughout the book extracts from the students' accounts of their work are used to illustrate the themes under discussion.

hardcover. Condition: Good. Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
