The module focuses on the centrality of Critical Reflection within social work practice and reflects the increasing awareness of the role of professional challenge in interdisciplinary and partnership working. Critical reflection and professional challenge are significant contemporary issues within social work: Domain 6 of the PCF Critical Reflection and Analysis states the core principles of “critical thinking and reasoned discernment” “augmented by creativity and curiosity” as central approaches to effective social work.
This module is designed to enable students to extend their knowledge, critical understanding and application of social work theory and methods in complex and rapidly changing practice and policy areas.
