WELF12011  Social Work Theory & Practice II

This course introduces students to social work theories and knowledge on the process of change and its impact for individuals, families, groups, organisations and communities. The course explores the researcher/practitioner paradigm and an understanding of the assessment process through time in all of the above settings. The course integrates a focus on the impact of rurality, social policy, social research and its application. Learning in this course is linked directly with the Australian Association of Social Worker’s Code of Ethics and its translation into action.
