Human service Intervention Continious assessment

Human service Intervention Continious assessment
Toolbox kit:
Throughout the study period students will undertake a range of tutorial activities that will assist in integrating theory with practice. Students will also be required to develop a toolbox kit. The tool box kit will include 10 items that demonstrate important learnings from the study period. The tool box kit will include resources that relate to Intervention plans and relevant theories.

As part of the weekly tutorials there will be short answer and reflection questions and a variety of learning activities to be completed in class. These will assist students in preparation for the exam.

A responsible contribution to the learning process can be measured in terms of:

consistent timely completion of set work each work
presentation of the 10 items for your toolbox kit in Weeks 11, 12 or 13 ( with a 300 word rationale)
demonstration of familarity with an understanding and articulation of readings
initiation of ideas and suggestions
responsiveness to others’ ideas and opinons
clear presentation of prepared material and ideas
flexibility and conceptualising and analysing material
sensitive but critical appraisal of own and others’ perception of practice
demonstration of respect and concern for others
ability to articulate and apply relevant theoretical frameworks to case studies and discussion with clear rationales for professional judgements and decision making processes
plz read instruction:
300 words maximum and 3-4 reference of each items
clear and succinct
items attached in the word file

Welcome to Human Service Intervention.
This course is designed to provide you with some theory frameworks for social work and human service work practice. Through lectures and tutorial activities you will learn the basic concepts from relevant theory and in tutorials you will also have the opportunity to reflect on these and then apply this knowledge.

This course has a practical focus on the development of practice frameworks within which to plan and deliver service to individual clients and more broadly client systems in social work and human service work contexts. The emphasis will be on ensuring that intervention is planned and a clear rationale can be argued for the decisions and professional judgements made throughout the intervention process. A generalist approach to practice is taken in the course and the fundamental and pervasive elements of effective and efficient social work and human service work practice in a range of contexts are covered. The stages of a systematic intervention process are presented and practice imperatives are considered at each stage. Students are encouraged to adopt a reflective orientation to practice and develop resourceful approaches based on sound knowledge of the fundamental theories underpinning practice and the application of core social work and human service work principles.

Course Aim
To enable the students to critically analyse situations for human service intervention and select appropriate practice approaches that reflect knowledge of core human service practice principles.
Course Objectives
On completion of this course, students should be able to:
CO1. Articulate and apply knowledge of the theoretical and ethical underpinnings of human service practice
CO2. Critically apply the generalist human service practice approach
CO3. Devise sound and practical intervention plans and analyse the implications of intervention
CO4. Demonstrate cultural competence in applying practise knowledge
CO5. Critique a range of practice approaches and identify appropriate interventions for diverse client situations
CO6. Describe and apply a range of assessment frameworks

 
Course Content
The students will further develop knowledge of the generalist practice context using ethical and cultural competence.
Students will critically analyse various practice perspectives (in particular: strengths and ecosystems
perspectives), principles and theories, crisis intervention grief and loss; intervention frameworks and the
empowerment-based practice process. The application of these practice perspectives will be critiqued through
data collection, engagement, assessment, formulating and implementing intervention strategies, and using evaluation strategies
