Scenario
Client (Tahalia) is a 24 year old mum who has left a domestic violence situation. She has come to see you as she continues to live in fear that her ex-partner will attempt to re- establish the relationship. She doesn’t want the police involved if her partner comes after her, particularly because she doesn’t trust the legal services.
1. Process Recording
Specific Skill to be Assessed
Reflective Practice
Learning Outcomes to be Assessed
On successful completion of this topic students should be able to:
3. Articulate the impacts of colonisation on Indigenous cultures and people within human rights and social justice frameworks, critically reflecting on the potential implications of white privilege and Indigenous oppression for contemporary practice;
4. Identify key factors in working ethically and holistically with Indigenous clients, families and communities, taking account of their emotional and social wellbeing;
5. Demonstrate familiarity with some of the major issues and strategies relevant to working effectively in collaboration with colleagues and clients from the Indigenous community;
6. Demonstrate the ability to engage in reflective listening processes that inform interventions.
Pre-requisite
Complete the Narrative Interview prior to doing the process recording.
Process recordings are a tool used within social work to explore an interaction between people at a set point in time. Process recordings are an excellent tool for developing awareness of your practice and assist you with the development of reflective practice skills.
We will be using a more detailed template than you would use in the field. This more complex template ensures that you understand how the process works and how to apply it in future. Once you understand the complete process and can apply it competently then you can begin working with ‘short-cuts’.
Task Overview
1. Write a process recording and reflection using the template provided on FLO.
2. Your process recording should include the following
1. Setting: In this section you provide an explanation of the setting of the meeting.
2. Narratives in time-sequence: Record in this section, using a dialogue format, significant ongoing exchanges that you thought were important in your interaction with the client.
3. Non-Verbal Behaviours – Record how you perceived the client was feeling moment-to-moment as the activity or verbal interchange was taking place.
4. Student thoughts = theories of practice – Record your reactions as the activity or verbal interchange was taking place. Be as open and honest as you can and don’t worry about having to use any special professional language. Label the interviewing skills and supporting theories you used in your interaction with the client(s) (e.g. warmth, genuineness, empathy, externalising the issue, re-authoring, deep listening, reflection, use of self, narrative approach, empowerment, etc).
5. Evidence-informed studies: indicate where you are able any studies which provide evidence of theories and skills used in the interview.
6. Revise your process recording and submit your assessment via FLO in the post-intensive module.
3. Critical Reflection
Specific Skill to be Assessed
Reflective Practice
Learning Outcomes to be Assessed
On successful completion of this topic students should be able to:
1. Summarise major demographic, cultural and social characteristics of contemporary Aboriginal societies and recognise the diversity of these societies;
2. Recognise and describe the significance of colonial history on current social policies and practices in Australia that involve Indigenous people;
3. Articulate the impacts of colonisation on Indigenous cultures and people within human rights and social justice frameworks, critically reflecting on the potential implications of white privilege and Indigenous oppression for contemporary practice;
4. Identify the key factors in working ethically and holistically with Indigenous clients, families and communities, taking account of their emotional and social wellbeing;
5. Demonstrate familiarity with some of the major issues and strategies relevant to working effectively in collaboration with colleagues and clients from the Indigenous community;
6. Demonstrate the ability to engage in reflective listening processes that inform interventions.
Purpose
The purpose of this assessment item is to have you think about all that you have learned in SOAD9213 with the benefit of hindsight. Hindsight is the understanding of an event or situation that we only gain after it has unfolded. Consider the questions listed below in Task Overview and respond appropriately. Remember that you only have 1000 words so keep your comments concise and ensure that you respond to each component.
Task Overview
Critically reflect upon your narrative interview and all of SOAD9213 to answer the following questions:
1. Discuss your engagement with narrative therapy techniques and practices, for example externalising, deep listening and re-authoring, also identify the gaps in your practice of narrative therapy;
2. Discuss the social work theories, skills and perspectives that you used in your narrative interview and include those that you could have used;
3. Using appropriate literature, critically analyse your self and your engagement with the client during the interview, clearly identify the challenges and what you would do differently next time;
4. From the literature, explain your understanding of Australia’s history of colonisation and its influence upon social work practice with Aboriginal people today, for example, white privilege, power imbalances and cultural responsiveness;
5. Clearly identify how your practice would change when working with Aboriginal peoples as a consequence of this intensive, for example in terms of cultural responsiveness, addressing oppressive issues, using a human rights framework;
6. Revise your assessment and submit via FLO as a Word document.
Criteria for success
‘It is not enough for people to come together in dialogue in order to gain knowledge of their social reality. They must act together upon their environment in order critically to reflect upon their reality and so transform it through further action and critical reflection.’ Paolo Freire Institute
In answering the above questions use a model/framework of reflection which you feel comfortable with.
