Observation Social Work

I decided for my social observation the mall would be a good place to start. I came there on a Friday evening when there should be plenty of people to watch. I also sat in the Barnes and Noble café after that to observe. I expected to see a lot of people shopping and conversing. A few things did stand out to me within the few hours I was there. Some things I didn’t expect to see. We are expected to behave a certain way in public determined by our culture as to what is acceptable. Some people stay well within the lines while some might stray outside the norms but never too far typically. Usually the ones to travel to the extremes are adolescents and teenagers. This is what I observed.

Social interaction? Many individuals have probably heard that term before at least once in their lifetime. Social interaction is really important for researchers and sociologist to seek the important factors of physical health of individuals. I recently went on a observation assignment to a nearby creamery called Baskin Robbins were a variety of individuals and families tend to appear on a warm day. This would be rather the perfect spot in my mind to seek the behavior of individuals and how they seem to interact around other individuals around them.

The first initial stage Danny went through was anger and personally questioned his existence. Throughout his anger, I witnessed the frustrated by the way he was describing his experience with having Chrons. He described to me the type of pains he would go through before going through a flare up. “Imagine you are sitting at home, your sweating, you’re in a fetal position and it feels like there is a knife inside and you can’t take that knife out” (Danny, 2016). This part of the interview, I knew Danny was going through anger because this stage illustrates how angry Danny was with the symptoms he would feel. Danny look for ways to avoid the disability. Danny shared a story with one of his first experiences with Chrons:

On 04-03-2016 at approx. 0553 hours, S/Sgt Loyd Lewis and I were dispatched to the 900 block of SE 40 RD in reference to a one-vehicle rollover injury accident. Dispatch advised the reporting party was a third party and an occupant of the vehicle had walked to the residence to summon help. Dispatch advised there was still one person still in the vehicle.

Our Life-span Development class observed a child in class for his social, emotional, cognitive, and physical development on October 2nd, 2017. The child observed for this report was almost seven months old at the time of the observation. His name is Maddox and he seems to be a very happy baby and developing at a normal rate. He was observed in classroom 1143 on Dordt College’s campus. His mother gave consent for this observation and both his mother and grandmother were present for the observation and answered questions about his behavior and development outside of what was observed in the classroom.

I think that the worker was too personal with the client where she was not able to hold her feelings from coming out in front of the client. She was not able to set boundaries in this case by being too attached to the client. As a social worker, she needs to learn how to set clear professional boundaries so that both the client’s and social worker’s feelings do not get in the way of the treatment. I think

After filming the videos, I was able to understand and have experience doing a mock session with a client. During this session, the social worker was given the opportunity to listen to the client, Ms. Lopez. Ms. Lopez expressed concerns with the removal of

faster than others. There are certain time frames when important milestones are supposed to occur; however, there is not set specific times. For example, children should be speaking by around two years old; however, if they begin a bit earlier or a bit later it may not effect later development. During the first two years of life there is a great deal of physical, social and metal development. This essay is going to discuss a 15 minute observation of a one and a half year old girl, and how her actions relate to theoretical concepts.

In the first video the social worker was more concerned about time than the client. She informed the client she had others waiting on her. This frustrated the client and placed a time constraint during the session. She was not sympathetic toward the client with wanting to select 90 days in jail instead of attending a battered man program. She did not meet the client where he currently was. In the video, certain phrases she stated provoked the client to result in raising his voice. She attempted to argue with the client and not allowing him to have a say in his treatment. The social worker needed to grow in providing clients with sympathy. She should have been understanding of the client and listen to his concerns. There were no strengths in this video, this interview was not a proper interview with a client.

The place of observation took place at my work, before I clocked in for the day. I work at Oakwood Methodist Preschool/Daycare. I went in to the daycare at about 9:00, which is just free play/ breakfast time in the infant room. The infant room I observed in was a little different than the CDRC, because the infant room is from 7 weeks old to 18 months old. There was not really a place for me to be

Shawn accompanies himself alongside, he became an observing bystander, but remaining an introverted soul with the shining eyes of admiration. He constantly found himself shying away from his peers or age groups. In the midst of people getting out there and delivering a nice chat, he spied a super cute 18-yr-old Caucasian Deaf

This assignment is going to look into observation as a social work tool and skill. Firstly, it is going to briefly describe the observation. Secondly it will analyse the interactions using a reflective approach. And finally, it will look into some relevant social work skills and values that relate to the discussed topic.

The following data was gathered while fulfilling duties as a principal intern at Theresa Bunker Elementary School. The data was observed during five to seven minutes of classroom observation as part of a walk-through in the spring of the current school year. My cooperating supervisor for my internship was able to go on these walk-throughs with me in order to have a productive reflection meeting afterwards. This elementary school has two of each grade level from Kindergarten to sixth grade. Since it was more feasible in this small school setting, I actually was able to do a walkthrough in eight classes. Here I will report my observations from five of those walk-throughs. As I went in to each room I was looking for four

During the summer of 2016 I completed a STPEC requirement by doing a 10 week internship at for social Justice in Springfield Massachusetts. I worked closely with the executive director on policy and office edicit in addition to many office based needs including answering phones, taking messages, helping parents who came in with children around food and calming down while sorting out the next plan od action. Looking at my time working with Arise, I aim to discuss the following issues of observation through the perspective of a trans person, an environmental activist, and a person with physical and mental disabilities. In addition to describing what Arise does, what it believes, and how it goes about conducting its business in order to achieve
