Good introduction from an author who is from a social care background. This book combines theory aginst own experiences and a must for students who want to pursue a career in social work
Clear and concise introductory text to use with students and helpful practice exercises to explore learning. I liked the information provide on communication as well as the role play as this enabled students to further consider and develop their skill base.
Some of the case studies/role play are useful but I did not like the layout
A good introductory text of use to social work students.
Helpful practical exercises, very useful for the experiential learning focus of the course. Particularly good section on communication and the use of video role play to develop skills. This book would also provide a helpful resource for practice teachers during practice learning situations.
The first chapter, in particular, will be an excellent resource for students on social work with individuals courses.
This book is essential reading as it prepares students for practice.
It includes some of the essential skills needed for social work practice.
A very welcome addition to the literature on this vital area of social work teaching.
A well presented text. I particualrly liked the acronyms which students will find very useful for remembering key concepts.
This is a useful text for this module because of the links to professionalism that are both in the book and in the module. However, the workbook approach and relatively generic content makes it potentially most appropriate at level 1 of the social work programme.
