An Undergraduate Macro Practice Learning Guarantee

Abstract

Although undergraduate social work education requires that macro methods be included as part of generalist practice, providing opportunities for hands-on macro experiences has been an ongoing dilemma for social work educators. This paper presents the educational components of a macro practice course which links the learning of large systems change theory to a required macro project in a student's field placement. To explain this approach to teaching macro practice, the authors include: (1) the curriculum arrangements to accommodate the macro project in either a block or concurrent filed placement; (2) the activities at the filed placement site to establish and complete the macro project, including termination; and (3) the learning components, integration process and evaluation procedures utilized in the macro methods course.
