Diversity in Social Work Practice A Blended Learning Design

Description

This short A4 guide illustrates an enquiry-based blended learning design used to encourage learning and teaching about issues of diversity, values and skills in social work. Its aim is to describe the learning design and encourage discussion about this type of learning and teaching approach. A mixture of face-to-face and online lectures (using the Echo360 lecture capture system), a Workbook, online video case studies and community-based EBL group work activities (27 groups of 3) were used in this blended learning design. The aim of the module was to provide students with opportunities to reframe and reinterpret existing knowledge, values and beliefs to assess the impact these may have on their professional practice when working with diverse communities.
