Facing the dilemma of teaching in the education field, the author has developed an action strategy for service learning courses. The approach encourages social work majors to build critical thinking skills in dealing with high-risk teenagers' situations, and power relationship on the campus, to lead students to move forward with a new vision. In addition, integrating students' subjective experiences and years of personal experience, the author reinterprets students' feedbacks to detect deficiency of the environment. The result will serve as a basis for the revision of future teaching strategies. In this project, the author analyzed reports of 16 students in youth social work course from 2011 to 2012 and three focus groups in 2014, to explore the differences between social work majors and their teenage clients regarding their growing up experiences and compulsory education experiences after a 6-week service practice. The study indicated the first problem of high-risk clients, who were either 'study under pressure' or 'completely no intention to go to school.' was low academic achievement, which may be interpreted subjectively based on the life and educational experiences of social work majors. Also the author considered social workers were lack of critical thinking ability to school system and tended to conclude teenage problems on clients' personalities and negative peer relationship. In addition, social work majors tended to view the family issues from their own perspectives and concluded teenage problem on family dysfunction and low expectation for the teenagers. Results from the study indicated the training should reduce the reciprocal role expectations, focus more on arranging a learning plan with more structured interactive design, from the establishment of relationships, strengthening dialogue and interactive experience between students and young people. In conclusion, the author highlights the need for field educators to strengthen the structural teaching plan, to help students to gain a better understanding of present barriers, leading them to provide better support for the clients. |
