Social work theory and its role in development of practice and competences
During the past few decades paradigmatic shift in social work theory demanded adequate changes in teaching methods and contents: from traditional to constructivist and interactive approach focused on students’ participation ; from traditional learning based on knowledge to learning based on social work competences. Efficient implementation of social work theory in practice requires from faculty and students, and later from practitioners continuous contact with theories and their development. That means that life long learning requires not only skills that are necessary in social work practice but also requires knowledge and application of social work theory in a different case work contexts with individual, group, family or community. Critical and active usage of social work theory in everyday practice has three important roles: (1) gives support for professional acting and decision making in direct practice with clients ; (2) incentive for further development of competences through professional progress ; (3) use of empowerment language as an important construct of contemporary social work. From the social work faculty perspective, authors will discuss what the necessary and acceptable competences are in modern social work in Croatia, and how much the actual form of social work theory teaching is in accordance with features of competence based learning.
