Throughout their careers, social work students and practitioners need to demonstrate an understanding of critical and reflective practice. The Professional Capabilities Framework sets out how newly-qualified social workers can achieve this, and become 'critical practitioners' who are able to make decisions in fast-moving situations. This book is a complete guide for those practitioners who wish to engage with action learning as a way of developing critically reflective practice.  The authors use Action Learning to explore fundamental aspects of good social work including for example person centred and anti-oppressive practice. The notions of social and emotional intelligence and being critically reflective are also explored in the context of action learning. This book is practical, skills-based and essential reading for all social workers who wish to extend their understanding and knowledge.  INDICE: PART ONE: PRINCIPLESAction learning: an introductionAction learning and social workAction learning and critically reflective practicePART TWO: CONTEXTSocial and emotional intelligenceAnti-discriminatory practice and anti-oppressive practiceInvolving other professions: multi-agency practiceCase studies: action learning sets in actionPART THREE: PRACTICEBeing an action learnerFacilitating action learning
