Enquiry and action learning: A new approach to social work education

Abstract

The article describes a new approach to social work education, using problem-based learning in place of traditional didactic methods. The curriculum is built on ‘study units’, scenarios and problems encountered in practice, rather than on subject-based courses. The approach aims to integrate more effectively college work and practice learning, to build on the knowledge and skills students bring to the course, and to help them become self-directed lifelong learners, able to adapt to the changing demands that will be placed on them as professionals.
