  MODELS AND METHODS FOR SOCIAL WORK II

Competencies and objectives

 

Course context for academic year 2022-23

En Trabajo Social la discusión epistemológica central  se relaciona con la necesidad de garantizar la articulación entre la teoría y la práctica en la intervención, en tanto relación dialógica y además interactiva, asociada a dar respuesta a preguntas sobre el qué conocemos y cómo conocemos en correspondencia directa con el qué transformamos y cómo lo transformamos.

Así, la asignatura pretende clarificar desde un punto de vista comprehensivo las perspectivas epistemológicas conceptuales que orientan el enfoque ecológico-sistémico para intervenir con personas, grupos y comunidades y proporcionar a los estudiantes las claves metodológicas y técnicas que orienten su práctica.

De este modo se constituye como el eje a partir del cual se irán completando de forma más concreta las diferentes dimensiones de la intervención con los sistemas cliente, así como permitirá el desarrollo de las habilidades y destrezas profesionales para entrenar a los futuros profesionales en el desempeño de su ejercicio profesional.
