LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

INTRODUCTION TO THE DISCIPLINES OF APPLIED SOCIAL


SCIENCES

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

The goal of the disciplines of social sciences is to explain human behavior in its
many cultural forms including the past and the present, individually or in groups,
national and international geopolitical contexts, and to empower them as democratic
participants in a rapidly changing world.

Social Sciences is made of several disciplines and these include history,


political science, sociology, psychology, economics, geography, demography,
anthropology, and linguistics. As a body of scientific knowledge, the social sciences
provide diverse set of lenses that help us understand and explain the different facets
of human society. The varieties of lens that social sciences study refer to the different
fields of the social sciences that investigate human society.

Social Science focus on the relationships among individuals in society. It is the


mixture of many subjects like History, Geography, Political Science, Economics,
Sociology, Social Psychology and many more.

The uttermost goal of social science is to answer different questions and


problems about the society and human condition on how to improve it. It provides vital
information for governments and policy makers, local authorities, non-governmental
organizations, and others.

Applied Social Sciences is a branch of study that applies the different


concepts, theoretical models, and theories of the social science disciplines to help
understand society and the different problems and issues. The applied social sciences
utilized the provision of alternative solutions to the diverse problem of the society.
Applied Social Sciences is also an integrated science cutting across and transcending
various social science disciplines in addressing a wide range of issues in a
contemporary, innovative, and dynamic way.

Applied social sciences are facilitating much of people's struggle to live with
these changes. Social work, counseling, and communication are making common
issues more of a public discourse leading to greater acceptance and better
understanding and coping on the individual, group, and community levels.

Basically, social science is about people on how they interact with others in
their society and how societies interact with each other. Applied social science is
about putting theories in to practice like technology or inventions.

Social science is an umbrella name for all disciplines that deal with human
produced phenomena as opposed to natural sciences. Applied science is said to be
the scientific endeavors that are aimed at practical uses as opposed to
pure science which is usually thought of as detached from an immediate practical use.

Counseling is one of the fields of applied social sciences as an application of


the social sciences, counseling provides guidance, help, and support to individuals
who are distraught by a diverse set of problems in their lives.

Counseling can be done by the following:

1. Guidance counselor and life coaching are applications of the social


sciences and these professions, expert help are given to individuals who
needed guidance or advice pertaining to their business successes, general
conditions and personal life transitions, relationships and career.
2. Life coach analyzes the present condition of the client, discovers different
obstacles or challenges that a client faces, and provides a certain course of
action to make the client9s life better.
3. Career counseling is needed by people who are in the process of entering
the job market, searching for possible career change, or those wanting
career advancements.
4. Personal growth counseling concentrates on the evaluation of different
aspects of a client9s life.

5. Social work practitioners help individuals, families, and groups,


communities to improve their individual and collective well-being.
6. Communication Studies- Applied social science provide adequate
training for careers in the field of journalism and mass communication
because of multidisciplinary knowledge and skills that graduates learn from
social sciences.

GOALS OF COUNSELLING

1. ENHANCING COPING SKILLS

We will inevitably run into difficulties in the process of growing up. Most
of us do not completely achieve all our developmental tasks within a lifetime.
All the unique expectations and requirements imposed on us by others will
eventually lead to problems. Any inconsistencies in development can result in
children learning behavior patterns that are both inefficient and ineffective.
Learned coping patterns, however, may not always work. New interpersonal or
occupational role demands may create an overload and produce excessive
anxiety and difficulty for the individual.

2. IMPROVING RELATIONSHIPS

Many clients tend to have major problems relating to others due to poor
self-image. Likewise, inadequate social skills cause individuals to act
defensively in relationships. Typical social difficulties can be observed in family,
marital and peer group interaction (e.g., the troubled elementary school child).
The counselor would then strive to help the client improve the quality of their
lives by developing more effective interpersonal relationships.

3. FACILITATING CLIENT POTENTIAL

Counseling seeks to maximize an individual9s freedom by giving him or


her control over their environment while analyzing responsiveness and reaction
to the environment. Counselors will work to help people learn how to overcome,
for example, excessive substance use and to better take care of their bodies.

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

4. FACILITATING BEHAVIOR CHANGE

Most theorists indicate that the goal of counseling is to bring about


change in behavior that will enable the client to be more productive as they
define their life within society9s limitations. According to Rodgers (1961),
behavior change is a necessary result of the counseling process, although
specific behaviors receive little or no emphasis during the process.

5. PROMOTING DECISION-MAKING

The goal of counseling is to enable the individual to make critical


decisions regarding alternative courses of action without outside influence.
Counseling will help individuals obtain information, and to clarify emotional
concerns that may interfere with or be related to the decisions involved. These
individuals will acquire an understanding of their abilities and interests. They
will also come to identify emotions and attitudes that could influence their
choices and decisions.

Principles of Counselling

Counselling is a process, as well as a relationship, between persons. Contrary


to what some people believe, counselling is not concentrated on advice-giving. The aim
of the counsellor is usually to assist the person or persons (client or clients) in realizing
a change in behavior or attitude, or to seek achievement of goals. Often there are
varieties of problems for which the counselee may seek to find help. Some forms of
counselling include the teaching of social skills, effective communication, spiritual
guidance, decision-making, and career choices. Counselling may sometimes be
needed to aid one in coping with a crisis. Other types of counselling include premarital
and marital counselling; grief and loss (divorce, death or amputation); domestic violence
and other types of abuse; special counselling situations like terminal illness (death and
dying); as well as counselling of emotionally and mentally disturbed individuals.
Counselling could be short-term (brief counselling) or long-term.

PROFESSIONALS AND PRACTITIONERS IN COUNSELING

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

Given that the youth are the future of every nation, the role of providing guidance
to them at critical moments of their growth is a serious nation-building undertaking.
Counseling is the process and a relationship between the client(s) and counselor.

Counselor, also known as counselling psychologist; has initial training in


psychology, and whose work is specifically informed by psychological methods and
models. However, the person in the role of counselor does not necessarily possess
special training or knowledge of psychological theories.

Counselling is grounded in ordinary human qualities such as a capacity to


listen, sensitivity to the experience of others, personal integrity and resourcefulness in
solving the difficulties that arise in everyday life (McLeod, 2013 p.8)

confident about something.

Client: Yes, there is. I won as the best singer in our barangay. And I made an original
song. (client smiles)

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

RIGHTS, RESPONSIBILITIES, AND ACCOUNTABILITIES OF COUNSELORS

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

Counselors play an indispensable role in the development of individuals and in


shaping communities. In their role, they are often responsible for cultivating and
maintaining relationships, monitoring client9s well-being, and working with different
cultural values and confidential information.

As registered and licensed professionals, counselors are protected. They are


governed by scientific theories, practices, and processes as well as professional
standards and ethics. They are responsible for the practice of their profession in
accordance with their mandates and professional guidelines and ethics. They are
accountable to their clients, the professional body, and the government.

Code of ethics help counselors to remind them of their rights, responsibilities,


and accountabilities in the counseling profession. The rights, responsibilities and
accountabilities of the counselors are based on the counselor9s associations of Code of
Conduct. The code of ethics of the counselors is divided into seven sections, namely;
1) counseling relationship 2) confidentiality 3) professional responsibility 4) relationships
with other professional 5) evaluation, assessment, and interpretation 6) teaching,
training and supervision 7) research and publication. (Gladding, 2000).

However, three (3) of the seven areas will be presented namely:


counseling relationships, confidentiality, and professional responsibility. The following
descriptions provide a sample code of ethics of the American Counseling Association.

The Counseling Relationships. Counselors always seek the clients9 rights and
welfare, respect their diversity, and must be aware of their values, attitudes and needs.
Also, counselors do not accept as superiors or subordinates9 clients.

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

Counselors should not have any type of sexual intimacies with clients and not to
counsel persons with whom they have a sexual relationship. They should not engage
with sexual intimacies with their former clients within a minimum of two years.

They can also work with multiple clients or do group counselling but must take
precautions to protect clients. Prior to entering the counselling relationship, the
counselors should clearly explain to the clients all the financial arrangements related to
professional fees.

Confidentiality. Counselors respect the client9s rights to privacy and avoid illegal
and unwarranted disclosures of unwarranted information. The right to privacy may be
waived by the client or their legally recognized representative. The general requirement
that the counselors keep the information confidential does not apply when disclosure is
required to prevent clear and imminent danger to the client or others or when legal
requirements demand their confidential information be revealed.
In group work, counselors clearly define confidentiality and parameters, explain
its importance and discuss difficulties related to confidentiality. Moreover, when clients
are minor or individuals who are unable to give voluntary informed consent, parents or
guardians may be included in the counselling process as appropriate. Counselors are
also responsible for securing safety and confidentiality of any counselling record.

Professional Responsibility. Counselors have a responsibility to read,


understand and follow the Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. They practice only
within the boundaries of their competence.

FOUR ETHICAL PRINCIPLES

Principle 1. Respect for the rights and dignity of the client

Guidance counselors honor and promote the fundamental rights, moral and
cultural values, dignity, and worth of clients. They respect clients9 rights to privacy,
confidentiality, self-determination and autonomy, consistent with the law. As far as
possible, they ensure that the client understands and consents to whatever professional
action they propose.

Principle 2: Competence

Guidance counselors maintain and update their professional skills. They


recognize the limits of their expertise, engage in self-care, and seek support and
supervision to maintain the standard of their work. They offer only those services for
which they are qualified by education, training, and experience.

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

Principle 3: Responsibility

Guidance counselors are aware of their professional responsibility to act in a


trustworthy, reputable, and accountable manner toward clients, colleagues, and the
community in which they work and live. They avoid doing harm, take responsibility for
their professional actions, and adopt a systematic approach to resolving ethical
dilemmas.

Principle 4: Integrity

Guidance counselors seek to promote integrity in their practice. They represent


themselves accurately and treat others with honesty, straightforwardness, and fairness.
They deal actively with conflicts of interest, avoid exploiting others, and are alert to
inappropriate behavior on the part of colleagues.

Many other similar codes exist with the same expectations for ethical conduct.
The fundamental principles include the following:

• Respecting human rights and dignity


• Respect for the client9s right to be self-governing
• A commitment to promoting the client9s well-being
• Fostering responsible caring
• Fair treatment of all clients and the provision of adequate services
• Equal opportunity to clients availing counseling services
• Ensuring the integrity of a practitioner-client relationship
• Fostering the practitioner9s self-knowledge and care for self
• Enhancing the quality of professional knowledge and its application
• Responsibility to the society

The Code of Ethics serves as a guideline for professional counselors, as well as


basis on which to process complaints and ethical concerns against counselors. Ethics
are important in counselling, as they are a means to protect the welfare of the client and
counselors by clearly outlining what is appropriate.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

many personal topics in life such as anger, depression, anxiety, substance abuse,
marriage and relationship challenges, parenting problems, school difficulties, career
changes, etc. https://www.csuci.edu/caps/individual-counseling.htm

Group counseling is a form of therapy, which posits that people benefit from
shared experiences. Usually, it's focused on a particular issue, like obsessive-
compulsive disorder or anger management. While a therapist usually manages the
group, contributions from other members are considered valuable since all in the group
share similar issues. https://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-group-counseling.htm

Community counseling is a generic term for any of professional counseling that


treats dysfunction occurring within a group of related people. This term describes a
preventive system of counseling that works to combat psychological impairment through
the improvement and development of community support. A community is defined as a
group of interacting individuals who share a commonality. This commonality can be
anything from location of residence to career interest, but a community counselor will
use this common characteristic to council groups of people.

by the administrators and staff looking for extra assistance.
13. Non-counselling tasks can take a considerably amount of time and pull
counselors away from more appropriate counselling activities. Presence of these

The Counseling Process

The counselling process is a planned, structured dialogue between a counsellor and


a client. It is a cooperative process in which a trained professional helps a person called
the client to identify sources of difficulties or concerns that he or she is experiencing.
Together they develop ways to deal with and overcome these problems so that person
has new skills and increased understanding of themselves and others.

For example, students in a college or university may be anxious about how to study
in university, lack of clarity on educational or career direction, have difficulty living with
a roommate of another race or religion, have concerns with self-esteem, feelings with
being <stressed out=, difficulties in romantic relationships and so forth.

Steps:

Step 1: Relationship Building


The first step involves building a relationship and focuses on engaging clients to
explore issue that directly affect them. The first interview is important because the client
is reading the verbal and nonverbal messages and make inferences about the counselor

42

Downloaded by Dona Fe Managantan ([email protected])


lOMoARcPSD|16981833

and the counseling situation. Is the counselor able to empathize with the client? Does
the client view the counselor as genuine?

Step 2: Problem Assessment


While the counselor and the client are in the process of establishing a relationship,
a second process is taking place, i.e. problem assessment. This step involves the
collection and classification of information about the client9s life situation and reasons
for seeking counseling.

Step 3: Goal Setting


Like any other activity, counseling must have a focus. Goals are the results or
outcomes that client wants to achieve at the end of counselling. Sometimes, you hear
both counselor and client complain that the counseling session is going nowhere. This
is where goals play an important role in giving direction.

Goals should be selected and defined with care. Below are some guidelines for goal
selection that can be used with students:
1. Goals should relate to the desired end or ends sought by the student.
2. Goals should be defined in explicit and measurable terms.
3. Goals should be feasible.
4. Goals should be within the range of the counsellor9s knowledge and skills.
5. Goals should be stated in positive terms that emphasize growth.
6. Goals should be consistent with the school9s mission and school health policy.

Step 4: Intervention
There are different points of view concerning what a good counselor should do with
clients depending on the theoretical positions that the counselor subscribes to. For
example, the person-centered approach suggests that the counselor gets involved
rather than intervenes by placing emphasis on the relationship. The behavioral
approach attempts to initiate.

Step 5: Evaluation, Follow-up, Termination or Referral


For the beginning counselor, it is difficult to think of terminating the counseling
process, as they are more concerned with beginning the counseling process. However,
all counseling successful termination aims towards terminating the counseling process
will have to be conducted with sensitivity with the client knowing that it will have to end.

DISCIPLINES OF SOCIAL WORK


PROFESSIONALS AND PRACTITIONERS IN SOCIAL WORK

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

<Diversity makes for a rich tapestry. We must understand that all the threads of
the tapestry are equal in value, no matter their color; equal in importance no matter their
texture. - Maya Angelou

When you are blessed or are in a privilege position in the society, the greatest
contribution you can ever make is to pay it forward. Paying it forward is an act of doing
good to someone else as a way of giving back to the kindness that others or the world
has bestowed upon you. Looking after your own welfare also entails looking after
someone else9s, which is a basic moral and social obligation of one human being to
another.

For you to appreciate social work as a viable option for a future career, you need
to understand some fundamental ideas about the practice. When you do so, you can
begin to orient yourself with the skills and values necessary in social work and in social
care. After all, social work is a noble and fulfilling way of making you relevant and helpful
to other members of society, especially to those who need help the most.

What is Social Work?

Social Work is an academic discipline and profession that concerns itself with
individuals, families, group, and communities in an effort to enhance social functioning
and over all well-being.

The International Association of Schools of Social Work and International


Federation of Social Workers (2001) defined the social work profession as a
promotion of <social change, problem solving in human relationships, and the
empowerment and liberation of people to enhance well-being=.

How is social work perceived as a profession?

Smith (2002) considers social work <a very practical job= and since it is about
<protecting people and changing their lives and not about being able to give a fluent and
theoretical explanation of why they got into difficulties in the first place.

Social work as a practical profession designed at helping people addressed their


problems and matching them with the resources, they need to lead healthy and
productive lives. - Australian Association of Social Workers

Many of the social workers in the Philippines <characterize their practice as


responding to poverty… that this very often underlies the issues which they seek to
address. (Price 2014) Social work in the Philippines is generalist in its approach, which
means that social work education in the country trains a social worker to perform various
functions. Trainees for social work are exposed to a wide array of problems and issues
in various social work contexts.

THE PRINCIPLES OF SOCIAL WORK

1. Acceptance - a fundamental social work principle that implies a sincere


understanding of clients. Acceptance is conveyed in the professional relationship
Note: Practice Personal Hygiene Protocols at all times
51

Downloaded by Dona Fe Managantan ([email protected])


lOMoARcPSD|16981833

through the expression of genuine concern, receptive listening, intentional


responses that acknowledge the other person's point of view, and the creation of a
climate of mutual respect.
2. Affirming Individuality - To affirm a client's individuality is to recognize and
appreciate the unique qualities of that client. It means to "begin where the client is."
Clients expect personalized understanding and undivided attention from
professionals. Individualization requires freedom from bias and prejudice, an
avoidance of labeling and stereotyping, a recognition and appreciation of diversity,
and knowledge of human behavior.
3. Purposeful Expression of Feelings - Clients need to have opportunities to
express their feelings freely to the social worker. As social workers, we must go
beyond "just the facts" to uncover the underlying feelings.
4. Non-judgmentalism - Communicating non-judgmentalism is essential to
developing a relationship with any client. It does not imply that social workers do
not make decisions; rather it implies a non-blaming attitude and behavior. Social
workers judge others as neither good or bad nor as worthy or unworthy.
5. Objectivity - Closely related to non-judgmentalism, objectivity is the principle of
examining situations without bias. To be objective in their observations and
understanding, social workers must avoid injecting personal feelings and prejudices
in relationships with clients.
6. Controlled Emotional Involvement - There are three components to a controlled
emotional response to a client's situation: sensitivity to expressed or unexpressed
feelings, and understanding based on knowledge of human behavior, and a
response guided by knowledge and purpose. The social worker should not respond
in a way that conveys coldness or lack of interest while at the same time cannot
over identify with the client.
7. Self -Determination - The principle of self-determination is based on the
recognition of the right and need of clients to freedom in making their own choices
and decisions. Social workers have a responsibility to create a working relationship
in which choice can be exercised.
8. Access to Resources - Social workers are implored to assure that everyone has
the necessary resources, services, and opportunities; to pay attention to expanding
choices, and opportunities for the oppressed and disadvantages; and to advocate
for policy and legislative changes that improve social conditions and promote social
justice.
9. Confidentiality - Confidentiality or the right to privacy implies that clients must give
expressed consent before information such as their identity, the content of
discussions held with them, one's professional opinion about them, or their record
is disclosed.

THE CORE VALUES OF SOCIAL WORK

1. Service
The primary goal of social workers is exemplary public service through helping
needy people address, manage, and resolve various social problems. Social
workers must always elevate public service above self-interest and personal gain.
Social workers use their skills and knowledge to help their clients through serious
social problems, such as drug dependency, child abuse, residential instability, and
criminal behaviors. Social workers often volunteer their professional skills through
community organizations free of charge.
2. Social Justice
Social workers advocate for social justice and fight against social injustice. They
offer social support and resources for vulnerable individuals and oppressed groups.
Their social change efforts are primarily focused on poverty, education, housing,
unemployment, and discrimination. They promote public sensitivity to social justice
issues and encourage the public to embrace cultural respect and genetic diversity.
Social workers ensure that their clients have access to basic services, resources,
and information. They promote the equality of opportunity and wholesome
engagement with clients.
3. Values
Social workers value the dignity and worth of each person. They treat each client in
a compassionate and respectful way that is mindful of individual differences, cultural
norms, and ethnic diversity. They promote clients9 socially responsible self-
determination based on their individual values. Social workers strive to increase
their clients9 capability to change, address their own needs and become self-reliant.
Social workers are always aware that they are simultaneously responsible to their
clients, the law and their organization. They resolve conflicts between clients and
society in ways that are respectful and socially responsible.
4. Human Relationships
Social workers recognize the primary importance of human relationships. They
understand that relationships between people are important vehicles for change,
advocacy and equity. Social workers engage clients, other professionals and
community program staff as partners in the healing and helping process. They
improve relationships among people in order to restore and promote the
functionality of clients, their families and communities. Because social work
depends on the ability to maintain positive relationships with individuals who may
be hostile and unreliable, social workers must be patient and communicative.
5. Integrity
Social workers must always act in trustworthy ways. They must maintain a continual
awareness of their organization9s mission, their profession9s values and their
individual ethical standards. Social workers must honestly and responsibly conduct
themselves in public to encourage their coworkers and support their organization.

To maintain their integrity, social workers improve their work expertise through
continually increasing their career competency.
Who is a Social Worker?

http://ilovebadbananas.com/product_images/1191-art.png

A Social Worker is a person who helps clients and audiences in coping up with
their physical, mental, behavioral or emotional problems. The social workers does not
act on impulse. Rather, the kind of service he or she extends to people is planned and
systematic. He or she first identifies the people who need assistance. Studying the
environment and analyzing the client9s needs are two of the most basic things that a
social worker must perform.

Social workers present to their client the endless possibilities of getting through
challenges. This allows the reduction of stress on the part of the clients. The social
worker also counsels the clients by providing them hope for change and improvement.
Social workers research and refer clients to community resources. If in any case that
the clients are unable to transact with agencies on their own, social workers help them
apply, so that the clients could receive the corresponding benefits.

A social worker is concerned on how his or her clients can solve and cope with
everyday problems. Social work is a profession that calls for selflessness. Social work
is both an occupation (one in which you are paid for the job) and a profession (one in
which you consider a specialization and vocation).

Rights, Responsibilities, and Accountabilities

It is not only about the fact that social work is always concerned with the clients and
service oriented, but it is also about the social work9s rights, responsibilities and
accountabilities like any other professions.

It is the right to achieve professional mandates or what is asked for the social worker
to do for the social worker to help the clients, public and the society and live by its value.

➢ A social worker must respect the clients.


➢ Social work responsibilities involve those situations that concern of its basic
functions, professional standards, roles, and adherence to the local and
international code of ethics.
➢ Lastly it is accountable to the clients, general public and the society. A social
worker must not only entertain but also accommodate them by interviewing them
and processing other necessary documents that the clients, public, and the
society submitted to the social workers. And then social workers will finally assure
the positive results in the said transactions.

ETHICAL AND UNETHICAL BEHAVIORS AMONG PRACTITIONERS

The National Association of Social Workers (NASW) Code of Ethics is a set of


guiding principles to assist social workers in making decisions in the best interests of
their clients, even if they might contradict what we might do in our personal lives. These
decisions are not always easy 3 especially when two guiding principles come into
conflict.

These conflicts are called ethical dilemmas. They occur when a specific situation calls
for the worker to prioritize one ethical principle over another or if one9s personal values
come into conflict with the best practices outlined by our profession. Today we9ll explore
some more common situations faced by social workers in practice.

❖ Receiving Gifts- Whether it9s the holidays, a special occasion, or some other
milestone, your client may try to thank you for your hard work by giving you a gift.
These situations are much more complicated than they seem because there are
cultural, societal, and relationship factors to consider on top of the bond you and
your client share.
➢ Importance of Human Relationships 3 rejecting the gift may taint the
rapport you9ve built, perhaps over several years, or leave the client feeling
like you are personally rejecting her.
➢ Integrity 3 Part of our job is to serve as role-models by maintaining healthy
and appropriate boundaries in professional relationships.

❖ Involuntary Commitment- regardless of your social worker breed, at some point you
will come across a client who intends to harm himself or someone else. These are some
of our most challenging moments as helpers.
➢ Dignity and Worth of the Person 3the Code specifically states, <Social
workers may limit clients9 right to self-determination when, in the social

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

workers9 professional judgment, clients9 actions or potential actions pose


a serious, foreseeable, and imminent risk to themselves or others.=
(NASW Code of Ethics 1.02 Self-determination)
❖ Breaches of Confidentiality with Minor Clients - there comes a point in every
adolescent therapist9s career when you hear these words: <You9re not gonna tell
my mom, are you?= However, soul crushing this may be, you are required by law
to report not only to the parent(s), but to the Department of Social Services or
Law Enforcement.
➢ Importance of Human Relationship 3 Breaching a child9s confidentiality
may impact their trust moving forward.
➢ Integrity 3 We must behave in a trustworthy manner, not only with our
clients, but with their families and the communities we serve.
❖ Commission of Illegal Acts - Sometimes good clients do bad things. In cases
of child abuse or neglect, reporting a client9s behavior is a no-brainer. Other
times, however, the rules are a little grey. This is especially common for social
workers who are working with clients who are incarcerated or abusing drugs.
➢ Dignity and Worth of the Person 3 As the NASW Code of Ethics states,
social workers seek to resolve conflicts between clients9 interests and the
broader society9s interests in a socially responsible manner consistent
with the values, ethical principles, and ethical standards of the profession.
➢ Importance of Human Relationships 3 Trust is paramount to a client-
worker relationship. Reporting on your client9s illegal activities is in direct
conflict with that.
➢ Integrity 3 We must practice in a way that is honest and responsible. We
are also beholden to the laws and policies of the agencies and
communities we serve.
➢ Social Justice 3 Sometimes the law may seem unfair or your client9s
situation may feel precarious, especially if he has experienced
discrimination or injustice in the past.
❖ Interacting on Social Media - ten years ago it was considered unethical to email
our clients. Now our Code of Ethics specifically addresses the best practices for
conducting therapeutic services over the internet. One issue that remains sticky
is social media. What should a social worker do if a client tries to <Friend
Request= her on Facebook?
➢ Importance of Human Relationships 3 Social media is a ubiquitous part of
modern culture, particularly for younger clients. Your client may feel
personally rejected or slighted by your decision not to <friend= them.
➢ Integrity 3 Social workers must act in a way that is consistent with agency
policies, even if that creates a bump in the smooth working relationship
you have with a client. Some things to consider are how your client9s
perception of you may be impacted by the things they learn about you
through social media and what your comfort is with them being able to see
your personal information and activities.
➢ Competence 3 In addition to being a competent social worker, you need
to be a competent user of technology. Handling this ethical dilemma
involves working knowledge of the privacy capabilities and limitations of
both the devices and applications involved.

Steps for handling ethical dilemmas:

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

1. Consult the Code- you should always have a copy of the NASW Code of Ethics
on hand for times like this. Spend some time reading through the code. Identify
the principles that come into conflict in the specific situation and why they are
important to social work practice.
2. Review State and Federal Laws- Be sure your decisions are sound, not only
ethically but legally. Remember you can9t help anyone if you put yourself in a
position to lose your license or your freedom.
3. Seek Supervision - no matter how long you9ve been in the field, if you have
doubts, questions, or just need a sounding board, seek supervision. Everyone
needs a second opinion once in a while. Supervisors can be particularly helpful
in guiding you to make the best decision possible in a difficult situation.
4. Consult the NASW-one of the most vital benefits to being a member of the
NASW is having the support of a national organization to back up your work.
Most states have a hotline social worker can call when they experience ethical
dilemmas. You can discuss your situation confidentially, without using identifying
client details, and get professional advice on how to handle things. Sometimes a
neutral party is the best resource to help you consider things from a new
perspective.
5. Take Time to Process What You9ve Learned - after you9ve done your research
and consulted the experts, take some time to process everything before making
your decision. Often, when faced with an ethical dilemma, you can9t undo a
decision once it9s been made. At the end of the day, you need to be able to live
with your decision and to feel confident you are doing what is in the best interest
of your client.

worker's concerns about the other parent; the attorney wanted to use the social

If you were the social worker (Daniel), are you going to give your
records/documents to the other party? Why or why not?

LEARNING ACTIVITY SHEET

CLIENTELE AND AUDIENCES IN SOCIAL WORK

Social work professionals work with various types of clientele and audiences not
only to help them improve their social functioning, but also to help them realize their
fullness potentials as individuals, organizations, and communities. Motivated by the
principles of empowerment, liberation, social justice, and human rights, social workers
render services to a wide array of clientele in various settings.

Social work may be defined as the applied science of helping people achieve an
effective level of psychosocial functioning (Barker, 1991). The practice of social work
requires knowledge of human development and behavior; of social, economic, and
cultural institutions; and of the interaction of these factors.

Individuals

The practice of social work geared toward individual clients is referred to as micro
practice. Individual clients cover a very wide range of clientele groups depending on the
field of practice. They may be children, youth, adults with mental health problems, adults
dealing with substance abuse, people with developmental and physical disabilities,
battered women, and the elderly, among others. The needs and characteristics of
individual clients also vary depending on their specific circumstances. In rendering
services, the social work profession has a particular bias for individuals who are poor,
depressed, disadvantaged, oppressed, exploited, marginalized, and discriminated by
virtue of age, status, race, gender, class, and ethnicity.

Groups

Chess and Norlin (1996), as cited by Ambrosino et al, (2008, 133), defined group
<as a form of social organization whose members identify and interact with one another
on a personal basis and also have a shared sense of the group as a social entity.= Social
work professionals work with primary groups, or groups characterized by intimate,
personal, and enduring relationships among its members. Group work in social work,
as defined by Ambrosino et al. (2008, 133), is <a process and an activity that seeks to

Downloaded by Dona Fe Managantan ([email protected])


lOMoARcPSD|16981833

stimulate and support more adaptive personal functioning and social skills of individuals
through structured group interaction.= Group works are usually conducted to
complement casework.

Groups exist in communities, organizations, students in schools, teachers in school,


and departments in workplaces, and such an entity can undergo group counselling to
meet counselling needs on that level. The needs can range from desire to reduce
conflict or manage it, become more productive as a team, or work better together. Some
of the group processes and procedures resemble those that are applied to individuals.
However, some are unique to group and organizational context.

Communities

Community organization is at the heart of social work community practice. For social
work community efforts to succeed, there is a need for representation and action from
groups within the community. This approach lies at the belief that people working
together have a great capacity of improving their lives. To facilitate cooperation within
members of the community, social workers help develop community awareness, identify
and develop potential leaders, create strategic alliances, and build community capacity
for sustainable community development.

Community needs addressed by social workers are mainly on health, welfare, and
livelihood. Social workers also help in improving local economies and in bridging
individuals, groups, and organizations with institutions, systems and processes. They
also advocate reforms to address policies and other factors that perpetuate
marginalization and victimization of community members.

When people experience something collectively, which may be socially troubling


and constitute the danger of blocking their collective capacity to move on, counselling
is necessary to be undertaken on a community level.

THE SOCIAL WORK SERVICES, PROCESSES, AND METHODS

Careful planning is important to social work. Community needs assessment to


identify the strength and resources available in the community to meet the needs of the
children and families. It provides a framework for developing and identifying services
and solutions that support and nurture children and families. Without it, social workers
might be mistaken on the services that they will give to the people. Before they give the
services, they plan it first through surveys, interviews, community meetings and these
information are their basis to make data.

DISCIPLINE OF COMMUNICATION

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

Communication is a learned skill. However, while most people are born with the
physical ability to talk, not all can communicate well unless they make special efforts to
develop and refine this skill further. Very often, we take the ease with which we
communicate with each other for granted, so much so that we sometimes forget how
complex the communication process is.

Communication is the modus operandi of social and commercial intercourse. It


is communication, which gets the world going. It is the lifeblood of any organization. It
is the ability of mankind to communicate across barriers and beyond boundaries that
has ushered the progress of mankind. It is the ability of fostering speedy and effective
communication around the world, which has shrunk the world and made 8globalization9
a reality. Communication is at once the cause and the consequence of a powerful world.
Development of varied and sophisticated means of communication over a period has
brought human beings across the globe closer and has also facilitated transmission of
thoughts and ideas. The expanse of communication, therefore, is worldwide. And it truly
encompasses human life in all its facets and endeavors. It galvanizes action among
individuals, in organizations, in society and the world community at large.
Understanding the power of communication is essential for the success of any human
endeavor.

The term communication process refers to the exchange of information


(a message) between two or more people. For communication to succeed, both parties
must be able to exchange information and understand each other. If the flow of
information is blocked for some reason or the parties cannot make themselves
understood, then communication fails.

Communication is very important for the human beings. It really regulates and
shapes all human behaviour. Communication is the mechanism through which human
relations exist and develop. It is good to have an understanding of communication in its
wider sense. It is the interchange of thoughts or ideas. It is viewed as the transmission
of information, consisting of discriminative stimuli, from a source to recipient. In
everyday life, the communication is a system through which the messages are sent,
and feedback received. Communication is the transfer of information from the sender to
the receiver in the manner that the transferred information is being understood by both
the participants. According to Brown, <Communication is a process of transmitting ideas
or thoughts from one person to another for the purpose of creating an understanding in
the thinking of the person receiving communication.=

The word communication is derived from the Latin noun communis and the Latin
verb communicare that means to make common. This word is much known to the
contemporary world. It is an all-encompassing word which includes the multitude of
experiences, actions, and events. Individuals and non-business organisations can also
indulge in mass communication to build an image in the masses. According to Kelly,
Communication is a field of knowledge dealing with the systematic application of
symbols to acquire common information regarding an object or event. According to
Luther, It is the transmission of commonly meaningful information. It is a process that
involves the exchange of behaviours. The following points show the different purposes
for a communication, and describe the way in which the communication differs based
on its purpose.

· To inform the public regarding the affairs concerned to them.


· To convey the messages to the people those are required.
· To persuade the human beings for certain activities.
· To request the people to get something done.
· To warn the public regarding some nuisance that has got consequences.

Scope of communication

Communication is important both for an individual and also for the society. A person9s
need for communication is as strong as the basic needs of human beings. A
communication should always clearly identify the subject scope of the communication.
The subject scope is a specification of the information covered by the communication.
It has become a basic for the social existence and the feeling of commonality and
togetherness. So, the existence of human being can be clearly elaborated in the
development of the communicative system. The scope of communication can be
evaluated and analysed from different point of views.

The Sender

The communication process begins with the sender, who is also called
the communicator or source. The sender has information 4 a command, request,
question, or idea 4 that he or she wants to present to others. For that message to
be received, the sender must first encode the message in a form that can be
understood, such as using a common language or industry jargon, and then transmit
it.

The Receiver

The person to whom a message is directed is called the receiver or the interpreter.
To comprehend the information from the sender, the receiver must first be able to
receive the sender's information and then decode or interpret it.

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

The Message

The message or content is the information that the sender wants to relay to the

CLIENTELE AND AUDIENCES IN COMMUNICATION

BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR LEARNERS

The discipline of communication is also known as <communicology=. In having an


effective communication, one must convince clientele and audiences to believe with
what he or she is saying. For them to believe what the speaker says, one must convey
one9s thoughts in a manner where the listener would most likely be swayed. Moreover,
the key for one to know which manner one should use to present the delivery is first to
identify the type of clientele or audience one is talking to. There are different needs in
different types of audiences. Therefore, there are different strategies to use. To know
the audience one is talking to, one must assess their fundamental perception of the idea
one is going to say. If the audience has already several knowledges about the topic of
what the speaker is going to say, the speaker must say more facts to reinforce the
understanding of the audience and for the audience to be persuaded. If the audience
has not much idea about the message one is delivering, one must provide them all the
knowledge they need to understand and agree with what one9s message. One must
recognize the audience9 current stand and think on how to let them accept the idea one
is trying to instill in their minds. It is important to know the number of the audience one
is talking to. The size of the audience defines the physical setting and the kind of visual
aids to be used.

CHARACTERISTICS AND NEEDS OF THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF CLIENTELES


AND AUDIENCES OF COMMUNICATION

Communication serves the following clientele: individuals, groups and organizations


and communities. These clienteles use communication for different purposes, and
communication helps these clientele certain goals.

1. Individuals
- Here are some characteristics of clientele and audience in communication
one should consider to be able to satisfy them according to their needs. First
to consider is their education level. Literacy is one of the factors that can

lOMoARcPSD|16981833

hinder effective communication. Age range is another factor to consider in


assessing clientele and audience. For instance, when delivering information
to a younger audience9s text messages may be more suitable. Knowing their
race and ethnicity is important too. Primary language, health status, and job
type are also significant to know in clientele and audience. Audience who
does not understand English, one should translate the communication
materials according to their language that they understand. Knowing the
health status of the audience may help analyze how much the audience
values health and the speaker may relate the message to the specific health
condition of the audience. The occupation has effect also on how the speaker
deliver his message. Information cannot be disseminated though internet or
email messages if the audience does not have access to computers.

2. Groups and Organizations


- Communication in an organization has a variety of needs to be achieved.
These needs can be summed up to the following: to inform, to build
understanding or change behavior, to prevent misunderstandings, to present
a point of view, to lower barriers between groups and individuals. When
choosing the people or groups your organization needs to influence, it may
be helpful to think about the many ways you can describe them. The more
clearly you can define your audience, the easier it will be to make choices
about your messages and communications vehicles. When analyzing each
group, consider: What do they already know about your organization? How
are they likely to react to your message and why? What are some factors
influencing the audience that receives your message? Are there any
difficulties you might have in communicating with each group?

3. Communities
- Listening is the key to have an effective communication. One must let the
audience feel that one is really listening and interested to their story and
opinion. Be on the same eye level as your client. Be aware of personal space
and face the client. Maintain an open, relaxed body posture. Communicate
with warmth and empathy. Use silence positively. One of the important things
we need to learn to be a good listener is to cope with these uneasy feelings
when there is silence. Positive relationships can be built though
communicaiton by using the right language. Using the right words can help
you to build strong, long-lasting client relationships. Empathy is sending
another9s feelings and attitudes as if we are experiencing them ourselves.
Create empathy by taking seriously other9s needs and concerns, valuing
feelings and attitude, respecting other9s privacy, experience and values,
listening actively, encouraging further elaboration and clarification, reserving
judgment and blame and withholding unsought advice.

LEARNING ACTIVITY 4 – KNOW YOUR AUDIENCE!


.
The class will be divided into groups with 4 to 5 members each team. You
may choose your own groupmates and determine your leader. The leader
will be the one to submit your output to the subject teacher. Do not forget
to indicate the names of the group members.
Choose one (1) among the three (3) clientele and audiences of
communication and conduct a demographic audience analysis about your
preferred target audience. You are also task to develop a speech topic for
your audience. The goal of this activity is to form your message around
your audience's values, needs and interests to receive more
understanding and acceptance from the targeted audience of the overall
presentation.

Step 1: Student teams will analyze their targeted audience by constructing a list of the
demographics of their audience including the audience's perceived values, needs and
interests. The teacher will determine the number of audiences for each
clientele/audience of communication. For those with gadgets: You may conduct the
interview via online platforms and submit your gathered data or audience profile to your
subject teacher via email or messenger. For those without gadgets: You may conduct
one on one interview within your community/barangay and record the gathered datas
from the audiences and submit to your teacher during the retrieval. Please observe
proper health protocols in conducting the interview.

Step 2: Each team will then submit to the teacher their findings via online platforms or
through hardcopy of output by (1.) describing the target audience (2.) explaining the
audience profile they have generated and (3.) revealing the speech topic. You are to
reflect upon whether your team has created an accurate audience profile. Whether the
speech topic you have developed would capture those listeners attention. Remember
that listeners are egocentric and are interested in speech topics that relate to their needs
and their lives. As Koch points out in Speaking with a Purpose, <No matter how good a
speech looks on paper or how well it is delivered, its success or failure must always be
measured in terms of audience response,= (2007, p. 24).
