ABSTRACT

Through their anti-oppressive professional practice and commitment to social justice and human rights, social workers can ensure people with disability exercise voice and agency and claim full citizenship in society. Yet, international research shows that ‘disability’ is often inadequately included in social work education, and that students may not graduate with the skills and knowledge needed to engage appropriately with people with disability. This article evaluates the effectiveness of using a short five-day hybrid course that integrated problem-based learning (PBL) and traditional teaching methods to deliver disability content to 42 German social work students. A qualitative SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) method was utilised. Written responses from students were collected and thematically analysed. The analysis indicated that the PBL format was well-liked by students, many of whom showed evidence of increased self-directed and deep learning, better communication skills, and synthesis of theory and practice. Importantly, students were able to internationally contextualise and challenge discourses that perpetrated stigma and discrimination, positioning them as effective advocates for people with disability. The social justice focus of social work justifies the inclusion of the critical examination of the lived experience of people with disability in social work curriculum. The research findings suggest that PBL short courses can provide an effective and flexible means of delivering disability content in social work education.

在国际背景下使用基于问题的学习来教授残疾:对社会工作的效用

摘要

通过他们的反压迫专业实践和对社会正义和人权的承诺,社会工作者可以确保残疾人行使发言权和代理权,并在社会中获得完全的公民身份。然而,国际研究表明,“残疾”往往没有充分纳入社会工作教育,学生毕业时可能无法掌握与残疾人适当接触所需的技能和知识。本文评估了使用一个为期五天的短期混合课程的有效性,该课程将基于问题的学习 (PBL) 与传统教学方法相结合,向 42 名德国社会工作学生提供残疾内容。使用了定性 SWOT(优势、劣势、机会和威胁)方法。收集学生的书面答复并进行专题分析。分析表明,PBL 形式深受学生欢迎,其中许多学生表现出增强的自主学习和深度学习、更好的沟通技巧以及理论与实践的综合。重要的是,学生能够在国际背景下对造成污名化和歧视的言论提出质疑,将他们定位为残疾人的有效倡导者。社会工作的社会正义焦点证明了在社会工作课程中纳入对残疾人生活经历的批判性检查是合理的。研究结果表明,PBL 短期课程可以提供一种有效和灵活的方式来提供社会工作教育中的残疾内容。他们中的许多人表现出更多的自主学习和深度学习、更好的沟通技巧以及理论与实践的综合。重要的是,学生能够在国际背景下对造成污名化和歧视的言论提出质疑,将他们定位为残疾人的有效倡导者。社会工作的社会正义焦点证明了在社会工作课程中纳入对残疾人生活经历的批判性检查是合理的。研究结果表明,PBL 短期课程可以提供一种有效和灵活的方式来提供社会工作教育中的残疾内容。他们中的许多人表现出更多的自主学习和深度学习、更好的沟通技巧以及理论与实践的综合。重要的是,学生能够在国际背景下对造成污名化和歧视的言论提出质疑,将他们定位为残疾人的有效倡导者。社会工作的社会正义焦点证明了在社会工作课程中纳入对残疾人生活经历的批判性检查是合理的。研究结果表明,PBL 短期课程可以提供一种有效和灵活的方式来提供社会工作教育中的残疾内容。学生们能够在国际背景下对造成污名化和歧视的言论提出质疑,使他们成为残疾人的有效倡导者。社会工作的社会正义焦点证明了在社会工作课程中纳入对残疾人生活经历的批判性检查是合理的。研究结果表明,PBL 短期课程可以提供一种有效和灵活的方式来提供社会工作教育中的残疾内容。学生们能够在国际背景下对造成污名化和歧视的言论提出质疑,使他们成为残疾人的有效倡导者。社会工作的社会正义焦点证明了在社会工作课程中纳入对残疾人生活经历的批判性检查是合理的。研究结果表明,PBL 短期课程可以提供一种有效和灵活的方式来提供社会工作教育中的残疾内容。
