Lifting the Lid: Perspectives on and Activity within Student Supervision

Practice teaching is central to social work education. Significant changes have occurred in the past 10 years affecting social work education in Scotland. This article reports on the findings of a small-scale study involving the audio recording of supervision sessions and the interviewing of students and practice teachers engaged in a 65-day assessed placement. The research reveals a high level of congruence between students and practice teachers in perspectives on the supervisory relationship, confirms the findings of other studies concerning effective supervision and provides some vivid evidence of practice teacher and student activity within supervision perceived to be conducive to student learning. A specific finding was the association between the use of ‘exploring’ by practice teachers and students engaging in practice analysis. It is concluded that the changes affecting social work education over the past 10 years, on the evidence of this small sample, overall have had a positive impact on the supervisory relationship within practice learning. One area suggested for further study is the potential link between ‘expressing opinion’ by practice teachers and students within supervision and the development of evidence-based practice.     

Social Work Students' Research-Related Anxiety and Self-Efficacy: Research Instructors' Perceptions and Teaching Innovations

The purpose of this mixed methods study was to examine social work research instructors' perceptions of research-related anxiety and research confidence among social work students, and teaching strategies to identify and manage anxiety. A national web-based survey of 186 BSW and MSW social work research instructors was conducted. Many BSW (70%) and MSW (61%) research instructors reported that they used specific activities or approaches to assess or impact upon student anxiety. Qualitative analysis results suggested a teaching model for social work research instructors designed to reduce students' research-related anxiety, including by enhancing their research confidence. Strategies that instructors can use include creating a supportive class climate, providing activities that are emotion-, cognitive-, and action-focused as well as the use of strategic timing. These findings can be used to guide social work research instructors' facilitation of students' attainment of research competencies and help further students' research–practice integration.     

Professional Development in the Contemporary Educational Context: Encouraging Practice Wisdom

Preparing social work students to be effective practitioners is a complex and challenging task undertaken in a dynamic environment both in terms of the field of social work and the higher education sector. There have been recommendations that self knowledge, empirical knowledge, theoretical knowledge and procedural knowledge are the keys to high standards of social work practice. This paper suggests that the concept of practice wisdom is a useful focus for integrating these different aspects of informed practice and for focusing educational programmes for social work. As practice wisdom is more about process than possessed characteristics then there are important motivational and value-based considerations in developing wise practitioners. This discussion considers motivational and personal narrative aspects of practice wisdom so that it can be integrated into social work teaching.

试谈人类学理论中的实践理论——以布迪厄《实践理论大纲》和萨林斯《历史之岛》为例

客观主义与主观主义似乎一直是社会科学领域无法调和的两个极端,在人类学理论中,这二者就表现为“结构”与“能动性”的对立,由此引发了许多学术争论。为了寻找这二者的契合点,以便在它们之间建立起辩证关系,布迪厄著《实践理论大纲》一书,使用并发展了“惯习”“场域”“实践”和“能动者”等术语,建立起了一套实践理论。萨林斯也是实践理论的代表人物,他著《历史之岛》提出了实践的变化会以一个不同的方式带来系统变迁的模式,从而把二者还原成认知问题、既有的认知图式和偶然发生的事件之间的结构关系问题.提出了“并接结构’’等概念进行阐述。     

Evidence-based practice in real-world services for young people with complex needs: New opportunities suggested by recent implementation science

There is growing agreement that child and youth services have been slow to implement evidence-based practice (EBP). A variety of interrelated barriers and facilitators of EBP implementation have been recognized and investigated. Key categories include the attitudes of providers, the characteristics of client populations, the characteristics of usual practice, organizational factors, and resource availability. Implementation scientists are investigating these factors, seeking to bridge the gap between clinical science and practice. Much of this work has been conducted in the context of behavioral health services for children and young people. This paper provides a purposeful review of this research from the perspective of decision-makers in agencies serving young people with multiple and complex psychosocial needs. It is argued that major barriers to EBP may be mitigated if ways can be found to transcend the oppositional construction that has characterized the discourses of EBP versus practice wisdom. A conceptual approach to such integration is offered. New lines of implementation research are offering opportunities for practical action by decision-makers consistent with this integrative approach.     

论中国传统社会践行道德文化理念的历史教训

中国传统社会在践行道德文化理念方面除了积累了丰富的成功经验之外,同时存在一些失败教训。后者主要可以归纳为责权失衡、扭曲人性、知行脱节、名实相分、重德轻智、重私情轻公义六个方面。全面总结这些失败教训,探寻其内在原因和历史影响,可以为当代中国的道德建设和道德实践提供前车之鉴。     

民族地区推进马克思主义大众化存在的主要问题与启示——以黔东南民族自治州为例

民族地区是推动当代中国马克思主义大众化的重要阵地,但在推动马克思主义大众化的过程中,存在着认识不到位、制度不健全、理论与实际相脱节、手段落后以及基层干部队伍素质有待提高等问题.民族地区应该建立素质优良的基层队伍,营造通俗易懂的文化氛围,构建完善的干部保障体系,创新“马克思主义大众化”的宣传体系.
