Content Summary

The module content links to the module aims to produce critically reflective students who are innovative, enterprising, digitally literate, commercially aware, and can develop the leadership skills required to deliver effective work within a multi-agency and inter-professional social care context.

Progression through this module is underpinned by a focus on a substantive practice-fieldwork placement (200 hours) in a social care work context, evidenced via an accumulative assessment in the form of a reflective workbook/ portfolio.

The connections made between taught sessions (Social Pedagogy in Theory 1) evidenced in the reflective workbook, will demonstrate students as ethically robust practitioners in identifying discrimination, oppression and/or exclusion. Tasks and assessments associated with this module will encourage students to be strategic in developing effective social action interventions to address and promote inclusion.

Students will be required to link their learning from taught modules to their reflective recordings, as part of the assessment for this module, and to the Social Pedagogy Standards and Charter (SPPA, 2022).
