Learning outcomes
GENERAL OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE
Knowledge and understanding:
- knowledge and understanding concerning the contextualization of the need and the recognition of its biopsychosocial nature
- knowledge and understanding of strategies for the detection and analysis of the need for social groups and communities
- knowledge and understanding of the different types of social intervention
- knowledge and understanding related to one's listening attitude
- knowledge related to the reading and interpretation of the different organizational cultures involved in the provision of aid intervention
ABILITY TO APPLY KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING:
- perform needs assessment
- draw up a social service report
- clearly and realistically establish the objectives of their intervention
- implement the social intervention with methodological correctness and appropriateness, evaluate its effectiveness and, if necessary, revise its objectives
- activate all the sensibilities necessary to guarantee a collaborative relationship with the users as well as with the other figures involved in the intervention
- draw up social service relations, intervention projects and reporting required by the institution to which they belong
Speicif Objectives.
The course aims to provide the conceptual and methodological basis for acquiring the professional skills necessary for future social workers to interpret and implement community interventions.
The course also aims to stimulate a critical reflection on the role that the social work could exercise towards immigrants and to some highly stigmatized minority groups, such as Roma and Sinti, always with a view to community action.
In general, there are two objectives of teaching:
1. acquire a "political" vision of social work intervention, considering the community as a subject to be mobilized also in defense of the social rights of citizens and, in particular, of those belonging to the weakest political groups and politically and economically;
2. acquire knowledge and tools on community analysis, on the involvement of the community in actions to protect the health of citizens, including through the mobilization of associations, committees and groups.
Program
The program of the course is centered on the deepening of the following points:
1. Historical origins and theoretical foundations of social community work;
2. The dimensions of community social work:
2a. the "operational" dimension (breakdown and preventive) - community work as a tool for problem solving -
2b. the "political" dimension - community work as an instrument for defending social rights and changing political relations;
3. The analysis and mobilization of the community:
3a. mapping of community resources;
3b. group work as a tool for mobilizing community resources.
3c. work with the family.
4. Community work in some particular operational areas:
4a. Community approaches in addictions and alcoholism;
5. Social Work in Third Sector.

Examination Methods
The assessment of learning outcomes will be:
- a preliminary written assessment of the acquired knowledge and an integrative oral test to deepen the contents of the written test and to evaluate other parts of the study program.
The written test is aimed at ascertaining the knowledge of the topics in the program and the ability to critically read the role of the social service in the promotion of community resources.
Contents and methods for conducting the assessment tests
The questions of the written test can cover all the topics covered in the course. Three open questions will be asked concerning both the exam text and the articles indicated in the bibliography, as well as the contents of the material provided by the teacher during the course.
Each of the 3 questions will be assigned a score ranging from 0 to 10 points, for a total of 30 / 30ths in case of answers all correct.
ERASMUS students are asked to contact the teacher at the beginning of the courses to agree together the teaching methods and the assessment tests.

Assistente Sociale
Comune e Università di Verona collaborano per la formazione alla professione di assistente sociale.
Professione Assistente Sociale
Pagina aggiornata il 18/1/2022
Stage e Tirocini
Le attività̀ di tirocinio degli studenti si svolgono presso strutture esterne, convenzionate con l’Università degli Studi di Verona ai sensi delle vigenti disposizioni in materia. Nelle strutture esterne gli studenti svolgono le attività di tirocinio sotto la responsabilità di un assistente sociale (Tutor-supervisore), appartenente a dette strutture, coordinato a sua volta dal responsabile del tirocinio presso il Corso di Studio.
In assenza di un assistente sociale, operante nella struttura esterna, il Collegio didattico, per quanto di competenza, decide, su proposta dei responsabili del tirocinio, in ordine alle condizioni per l’effettuazione o la prosecuzione delle attività di tirocinio degli studenti interessati. Le attività di tirocinio sono obbligatorie per almeno 450 ore.
Il Collegio didattico, in deroga alle disposizioni del presente articolo, può consentire a studenti che si trovino in particolari condizioni, in specie se disabili, lavoratori o impegnati in organismi collegiali dell’Università degli Studi di Verona, di non ottemperare in parte all’obbligo di frequenza alle attività di tirocinio, predisponendo forme alternative di tirocinio, anche tramite supporti telematici e multimediali interattivi.
I responsabili delle attività di tirocinio presso il Corso di Studio, anche avvalendosi di appositi collaboratori o tutori esterni, accertano la presenza degli studenti presso le rispettive strutture. A tal fine utilizzano un apposito libretto di frequenza per ciascuno studente.
Al termine dell’attività di tirocinio, lo studente deve presentare una relazione scritta al responsabile di tale attività presso il Corso di Studio. Lo studente elabora la relazione scritta, controfirmata dal Tutor-supervisore. La relazione finale viene valutata dal responsabile del tirocinio presso il Corso di Studio e deve tenere conto degli obiettivi prefissati dal Collegio didattico.
La valutazione viene attribuita al tirocinio nel seguente modo: sufficiente = 1; buono = 2; ottimo = 3; eccellente = 4 e verrà aggiunta alla media dei voti del curriculum al momento della discussione della tesi.
Gli Uffici della Direzione Didattica e Servizi agli Studenti predispongono la documentazione necessaria allo svolgimento delle attività̀ di tirocinio, comprese attestazioni e certificazioni.
Nel caso in cui lo studente partecipi a programmi di mobilità internazionale, le attività̀ di tirocinio vengono regolamentate come segue:
A – Lo studente svolge il Tirocinio presso la sede estera.
Se lo studente svolge il Tirocinio all’estero si ritengono assolti gli obbligo relativi al Laboratorio se:
- - lo studente aggiorna il proprio docente/tutor con brevi relazioni mensili da inviare mezzo mail, sull’andamento del lavoro svolto presso la sede estera;
- - produce una relazione finale completa del tirocinio svolto.
La valutazione finale del laboratorio di guida al tirocinio sarà̀ effettuata da parte del tutor del laboratorio sulla base della relazione dello studente tenendo conto della eventuale valutazione da parte del supervisore estero.
B – Lo studente non svolge il Tirocinio presso la sede estera.
Se lo studente non svolge il Tirocinio nella sede estera e lo deve fare al rientro:
lo studente effettua uno/due incontri individuali iniziali con il docente/tutor in cui predisporre quanto necessita per l’avvio del tirocinio e nei quali verranno forniti materiali, griglie ed eventuali testi di riferimento;
invia brevi relazioni mensili sull’andamento del tirocinio che sarà svolto in Italia al di fuori del periodo in cui si tiene il laboratorio di guida al tirocinio;
produce la relazione finale completa del tirocinio svolto”.
