[ORDER SOLUTION] Direct Social Work Practice
InstructionsEach student will complete a personal toolbox journal entry for every module. The toolbox will be a place where you can add social work skills you are learning about, using, and exploring through each module, the readings, and your experiences in the field.As you add to your developing skills in each module you will have a set of tools accumulated over the course of this first semester. It will be interesting to watch how your skills develop and how you reflect back on the way you used these skills in the beginning of your work compared to how you will use them over the course of your first-year internship. This is a personal record and a way to actually witness your own growth and development as a professional social worker.This week, think about the following skills:Clarifying purposeClarifying roleReaching for client feedbackFor each of these skills, do the following:Name the skill.Define the skill.Discuss the use of this skill.What is the purpose of this skill?How does it enhance (or how could it enhance) your relationship with or the work you are doing with the client(s)?Give an example of how you used or would use it in your field placement.Reflect on the use of each of these skills and how they challenged you in the discussion examples of this week.In what ways would they be useful?How did the discussions of this week enhance your understanding of these skills?Assigned ReadingsReview the following materials to prepare for this week’s discussion:Hepworth, D.H., Strom-Gottfried, K., & Larsen, J.A.
