In this individual written assignment you will reflect on your motivations and values for undertaking social work/ human services practice. As outlined in pages 8-15 of the Chenoweth and McAuliffe text (read this!) we can come to this field of practice for a variety of reasons. Social work and human services practice is ‘reflexive’ which means practitioners to be aware of their own values and ways of seeing the world how these influence their perspectives on social problems and practice and how these fit with the values and purposes of professional practice. This short reflection assignment is designed to assist you to explore your initial understandings of social work and human services. It also provides an opportunity for you to receive feedback from your tutor about your reflective skills and capacity to link reflections to relevant literature.In your reflection you should explicitly reflect on:What led you / motivated you to undertake a degree in social work/ human servicesHow you understand the purpose of social work/ human services practiceWhich domains of practice you consider will be most comfortable and most challenging for you to undertake. Why do you think this?
