•    Assignment Instructions and a note about my beliefs and values and my self and social location.

This assignment is intended to provide you with an opportunity to identify and reflect on your beliefs and values about the law and how they have been challenged (or not) throughout the course. You will need to consider the sources of your values and beliefs and your personal experiences (or lack of them) with the law and its institutions in light of the course readings and discussions. You need to consider how your beliefs, assumptions and biases are likely to affect your practice especially in matters related to law.
The course readings offer some a multitude of reflections on how experience with and perspective on the law and its institutions are shaped by factors of location: historical, social, cultural and political. While race, class, ability, and gender are featured in the readings, other factors such as ability and sexual orientation not explicitly referred to in the readings also enter in. These matters of location shape the value base from which we approach the law and its institutions as do our personal biographies, and by various influences to which we are exposed. This assignment asks you to develop an understanding of your current value base in relation to the law and its institutions and to reflect on how that might impact your practice.
Please note that there are 3 sections to complete whether or not you are doing the alternate or not. The “alternate” option just applies to section 2.

1    Where, when and how did your very first understandings of the law develop? How were these understandings shaped by your historical, social, cultural and political locations? Which of these understandings have shifted through the course (and why) and which have not (and why not)?

2    Briefly describe a situation in which you interacted with the law or one of its institutions.
In each case:
a    Describe your feelings at the time.
b    Describe the relative historical, social, cultural and political locations of yourself and those you dealt with. How do you think these factors contributed (or didn’t) to how the situation played out?
c    What role did conflict play in the situation, and how were various conflicts resolved or not resolved? Identify historical, social, cultural and political aspects of location that contributed to how conflict arose (or didn’t) and how it was dealt with.
d    Describe how this experience influenced your perception and understanding of the law and its institutions.
OR ALTERNATE 2.
2. If you have NEVER interacted with the law, or one of its institutions, please take this assignment up through the following questions:
a    How is your lack of interaction with the law or one of its institutions related to your historical, social, cultural and political locations? How is it related to other factors? Explain.
b    Who has had to interact with the law so that you haven’t had to – which people, by reason of their historical, social, cultural and political locations, have afforded you the luxury of not interacting with the law?
c    Describe how your lack of experience with the law influences your perception and understanding of the law and its institutions. What are the sources of your non-experiential knowledge and perspective on the law? To what extent, and how, is your knowledge and perspective on the law shaped by those who occupy historical, social, cultural and political locations that are different from your own? To what extent, and how, is your knowledge and perspective on the law shaped by those who occupy historical, social, cultural and political locations that are similar to your own?

3. Discuss the implications of your current value base in relation to the law and its institutions and to reflect on how that might impact your practice.
WHETHER YOU HAVE HAD EXPERIENCE WITH THE LAW OR NOT, YOUR PAPER SHOULD:
Explain your assumptions, values and beliefs related to law and its institutions and legal processes and explore how are these are shaped by your history, location and life/work experiences.
Discuss how your social location(s) (e.g. race, class, gender, ability, sexual orientation, culture, ethnicity, etc.) influences your knowledge, understanding, assumptions, values and beliefs about law, institutions and legal processes.
Discuss how you have (or have not) challenged these assumptions, values and beliefs throughout this course and how that is related to your location.
Explore where, how and why it has been difficult for you to challenge your knowledge, assumptions, values and beliefs, and how that is related to your location.
Discuss how your location(s), life history and life/work experiences and present value base regarding the law and its institutions and processes may impact your practice.

•    A note about my beliefs and values and my self and social location.

I was born and raised in Africa. my african beliefs and values are very different from my what it is now while living in Canada. Based on my culture and beliefs, for example kids or children can’t be taken away from their parents no matter the case. but while in Canada and taking this course, my beliefs and value on that has changed.
Secondly, some things i grow up nothing were all normal for kids to do are seen as child slavery here in Canada. where i am from it’s normal for a child at 6 years old to look after his/her younger siblings in the absent on their parents. for example i use to cook for my siblings at the age of 7years old and make food for my dad. in Canada kids are not allowed to do things like that.
taking this course has definitely changed my values and beliefs in live and will go a long way to impact my practices as a social worker.
Also the change of my social location from Africa to Toronto, Ontario has played a big role in changing my beliefs and values in relation to law and will greatly play a positive impact in my social work practices.
