Working with Young People
"It is common to refer to the dynamism and vitality of young people as a source of change, creation, and innovation, but they are often also considered a problem that we do not know how to respond to. Young people can make adults feel uncomfortable because they are neither children who can be told what to do nor adults to be treated as equals. From the perspective of adults, their status is socially and culturally ambiguous"--
Transformations sociales et transformations de l'intervention sociale
Cet ouvrage réunit les contributions de chercheurs français, québécois et espagnols. Ils questionnent le rapport entre société et intervention sociale à partir de la notion de transformation, et ils réfléchissent aux enjeux, aux défis de ce rapport sur les diverses postures de l'intervention sociale. Quelles conséquences engendrent les discours incapacitants sur les pratiques des acteurs ? Au delà des théories dominantes de l'incapacité, comment valoriser d'autres modes d'analyse des transformations de l'intervention sociale ?
Le travail de rue
Le travail de rue est une constellation du travail social, au caractère particulièrement fédérateur : santé, social, humanitaire, médiation, accompagnement éducatif... se trouvent impliqués. En effet, il s’agit d’aller vers les usagers où ils sont et comme ils sont, et parfois vers des personnes qui n’ont rien demandé, pour leur proposer une attention, une écoute, un service, un accompagnement... Ce travail se fait en public, dans la rue, sous le regard de tous. Cet ouvrage répond à des questions pratiques : comment initier une action de rue ? Avec quels partenaires ? Comment y travailler la santé somatique et la santé mentale ? Quels liens avec la problématique du logement ? Y a-t-il des publics « particuliers » : mineurs, femmes ? Comment faire avec la non-demande ? Quelles places pour les bénévoles et les travailleurs-pairs ? Comment se positionner, avec quelle distance et/ou quelle proximité ? Comment s’y former, comment y former ? Des témoignages d’équipes de rue sont croisés avec les analyses et les propositions des auteurs de l’ouvrage, formateurs et praticiens expérimentés.

Enhancing Learning Through Self-assessment
Self-assessment is increasingly used in higher education as a strategy for both student learning and assessment. This book examines the full range of concerns about self-assessment, placing it in the wider context of innovative teaching and learning practices.
Inclusive Group Work
Inclusive Group Work offers an innovative approach to working with intervention groups and task groups by redefining the concept of diversity and reframing core group work concepts. Appropriate for both undergraduate and graduate courses, this book introduces readers to the foundations of group practice with an emphasis on social justice. The book presents diversity as a relational concept that is at the heart of all group interactions. Individual identity is complex, and in order for all members to be treated equally their individuality must be accepted and respected. Using this framework, the book discusses the values and ethics of social work with groups, explores the stages of group work including planning, and presents both basic and advanced skills such as conflict resolution and the use of self. Theories are put into practice in three chapters of case studies that show in-detail how diversity can be employed as a strength in multiple settings to achieve the wide variety of goals groups pursue. Through this new approach, students and practitioners alike will learn how to harness diversity to engage and maintain participation in inclusive group processes.
Team-Based Learning
This book describes team-based learning (TBL), an unusually powerful and versatile teaching strategy that enables teachers to take small group learning to a whole new level of effectiveness. It is the only pedagogical use of small groups that is based on a recognition of the critical difference between "groups" and "teams", and intentionally employs specific procedures to transform newly-formed groups into high performance learning teams.This book is a complete guide to implementing TBL in a way that will promote the deep learning all teachers strive for. This is a teaching strategy that promotes critical thinking, collaboration, mastery of discipline knowledge, and the ability to apply it.P...
The Spanish Coastal Systems
This monograph presents the state of art of the geologic knowledge about the Spanish coast obtained through scientific research in the last 30 years.From a general point of view, coasts are the most quickly changing systems of the Earth. This is critical, since many human resources, such as the main part of economic and social activities, are located in the coastal areas. Especially in the case of Spain these coasts include cities, wide industrial areas (including harbor complexes), important ecologic systems, and our main economic resource: tourism. Understanding the dynamic functioning of each element of this coast is vital for correct future coastal management, so as to solve problems derived from bad plans developed in the last decades of the twentieth century. This is a valuable text for advanced graduate students and coastal researchers, which connects the specific dynamic functioning of the main Spanish coastal environments and their relationships with human activities.
Working with Young People
Working with Young People offers a new outlook on social, cultural, and educational work with young people. It utlizes the perspective of social pedagogy--a theoretical and practical perspective that has been developing in continental Europe over the last 150 years--in placing young people at the center of socio-educational work and giving value to their decisions and actions. The text supports youths' process of personal construction within the framework of the community in which they live. The book is organized into three large blocks of chapters. The introduction aims to prepare readers for the social pedagogy approach to work with young people. It briefly outlines its current situation i...
