This is a 8-10 minute “script” for my masters level social work class. I am doing attachment theory. Please answer the questions for the podcast script. This is more of a conversational type podcast but still needs to be professional. Here are the instructions along with the rubric: Generalist Practice II Assignment #1 Theory Podcast Description: This podcast is a chance for you to take an in-depth look at a practice theory of interest to you that is commonly used in social work. In the podcast you should describe the theorys main principles and how the theory can be used to help in social work practice settings. Approach this as if you are teaching me (the reader) about the theory. Choose from this list of practice theories/models: Cognitive behavioral theory (CBT), ecological systems theory, crisis intervention theory, task centered perspective, psychosocial development theory, social learning theory, attachment theory, and family systems theory. It must be DIFFERENT from the theory you wrote about in the fall semester. 1.) What does the theory say? Describe the descriptive theory (what the theory proposes is the reasons for peoples problems) and the prescriptive theory (what they say you do to help and why they think it will help). This part is focused on teaching your reader about the theory. Included should be information on the key components that make up the theory, individuals who contributed to or influenced its development, and how (if at all) the therapeutic relationship is addressed. 2.) What does the research say? – Discuss what research says about the theory, including evidence that supports and critiques the theory. 3.) Discuss the theorys fit with the field of social work In class and some of our readings have touched on what makes a theory a good fit for social work. Discuss whether or not your chosen theory is a good fit with social work and why (support with research). 4.) Would you use this theory? Why or why not? Discuss whether or not you would use this theory in your practice now that you have explored the theory more in depth. Assignment Requirements: Prepare a podcast (8-10 minutes individually or 18-20 minutes in a pair) to present the information discussed above on your theory. You will submit the podcast and a reference list via Plato. The podcasts and reference lists will be shared with the class later in the semester.
