Ask a student or even a qualified social worker the question “what theory are you using?” and you very often see that, well recognised, terrified rabbit in the headlights look. Theory and its relationship with practice is a vital aspect of professional learning and development at all stages of a social worker’s career.
These Social Work Theory Cards provide a new and exciting opportunity to use more creative techniques when exploring theory and practice with both students and qualified staff.
The Social Work Theory cards are presented in a hardwearing plastic box with a lid. There are 88 cards with content and a number of blank cards for completion by the user. The completed cards have the theory “title” on one side and some brief content on the other.
The card set contains an explanatory booklet with lots of ideas about how to use the cards but the possibilities are limitless.
The cards briefly outline a number of theories, models and approaches used in social work. A number of specific theoretical concepts (ideas which are important in theories but which do not form a theory in themselves) are also covered.
These Social Work Theory cards have been designed for use by practice educators, professional educators, team managers, course tutors and those responsible for the continuing professional development of others. Individual students and practitioners may also find the cards useful.
