Teacher's information
https://elearning.fvp.slu.cz/course/view.php?id=287
Processing of 5-7 standard pages on Comparison of two selected approaches in social work. Each student chooses a topic (2 approaches) and can consult with a teacher within 14 days. The literature from which the student will draw will be a minimum of 3 titles from the literature and 1 titled from the literature.
The basic criterion in assessing the quality of the thesis will be the demonstration of the ability to work with a specialized text, with the emphasis on the appropriate interconnection of individual authors' theses into a coherent logical framework and the ability to project the theoretical knowledge into the practice of social work with the client. Students will submit the processed paper at least two weeks before the start of the last week of study so that the teacher has the opportunity to evaluate the job and possibly return it for reworking by e-mail. In the framework of consultations (personal, electronic), the student can use the time to solve the ambiguities in the processing of tasks. The processing of the paper is a precondition for admitting the student to the exam.
The course is also listed under the following terms Winter 2016, Winter 2017, Winter 2019, Winter 2020, Winter 2021, Winter 2022, Winter 2023.
