The personal contexts of undergraduate students in social work at UNISALintvelt, Rulene Annemie 11 1900 (has links)
The Department of Social Work at UNISA places the emphasis on developmental social work and trains students according to the Person Centred Approach which emphasises the uniqueness of each client. The question thus arises if this Department is indeed working with their students in a person-centred way, and if students think the Department lives out a person-centred philosophy. Exploring the personal contexts of students would give the Department of Social Work the oppor-tunity to try and find a fit between the personal contexts of students and the national requirements of training.
From a population of 114 fourth level students in Social Work at UNISA, a self-selected sample of 79% emerged. Focus is placed on the students' perceptions of following five areas: (1) the self, (2) family life and family of origin, (3) living and study conditions, (4) UNISA and social work training, (5) social work as future career. / Social Work / M.A. Social Science (Mental Health)

Examining the fit between personal, learning and practical work contexts of students to further practice excellence in social work trainingLawlor, Gwynneth Mary 30 June 2008 (has links)
South Africa is currently facing a severe shortage of trained and competent social
workers. Case loads have reached proportions of such magnitude that social workers in
the field are battling to meet the needs of the people they serve, while still maintaining
high ethical and professional standards. The impact of HIV/AIDS on the field of social
work has currently redirected a major part of the focus of the profession on meeting the
needs of child-headed households, to find and train foster parents for these children and
generally to assist the poorest of the poor to access various grants applicable to their
circumstances.
This redirection appears also to have changed the emphasis regarding social work
training requirements. Whereas in the past the newly qualified social worker was able to
acquire additional skills in the workplace, under the guidance of experienced social
workers, today it would seem that the demands of the work place are such that the social
worker needs to take on significant responsibilities on entering the field. At the same
time the Department of Social Services in South Africa is encouraging universities to
increase the intake of social work students, in an attempt to meet this rising need for
personnel trained to meet the current requirements of the clients of social work services.
This exploratory research will focus on the applicability of UNISA (University of South
Africa) social work training to these current requirements of social work by tapping into
three different frames of reference:
1) The experiences and perceptions of the final year social work student in their
placement setting, and particularly on whether they have felt their UNISA training
equipped them for the work they are required to do.
2) The way the UNISA student is perceived by the practice setting personnel
(contact person), and whether they meet the requirements of the field setting.
3) Input from the UNISA appointed supervisors responsible for the final year social
work students' professional development in the field.The person-centred approach and the developmental approach have been briefly
discussed in relation to social work in South Africa in the literature review and form the
backdrop to this research, guiding the researcher in the exploration of the perceptions of
the three different types of respondents. Post-modern theory is also at the root of the
researcher's attempt to find fit between the different perceptions and the implications for
social work training at a distance learning institute in South Africa today. / Social Work / M. A. (Mental Health)

The role of the lecturer in cultivating a relationship of trust with the student teacher with special reference to teaching practice in the former Transkei regionMsengana, Enid Ntombizolundi 11 1900 (has links)
This study deals with the problem relating to the prevalence of a lack of
trust amongst members of today's society generally, and in particular
between college lecturers and student teachers.
The aim of the dissertation is to investigate the role of the lecturer in
cultivating a relationship of trust with the student teacher, especially
during teaching practice. The study reveals that the trust relationship
manifests itself in various moments. Some characteristics of an effective
supervising lecturer are also reflected upon.
The major research consists of an empirical investigation into which
characteristics of an effective supervising lecturer contribute most towards
cultivating a relationship of trust with student teachers during teaching
practice. A survey of colleges of education and schools in the former
Transkei region participating in the empirical investigation is also
conducted.
The findings of the research indicate that the following categories need
to be enhanced 'through training : personal, professional and guidance. / Education / M. Ed. (Philosophy of Education)
