Learning outcomes

------------------------
MM: Lezione
------------------------
The unit will allow students to develop the ability to define society and social phenomena as constituted by social relations and networks of social relations. In particular, the unit will provide the students with the ability to know the social phenomena connected to social services, starting from their relational constitution. For this purpose the students will be provided with the methodological tools made available by the social network analysis. The unit is also aimed at the production of a specific knowledge linked to a possible practical application, within the social services, of the relational conception of social phenomena, namely the methodology of the network intervention. Upon completion of the unit, students should be able to define theoretically the concepts and the relational contexts, with particular regard to the areas of intervention for the social services.

Upon completion of the unit, students should be able to operationalize the concepts and the relational contexts, with particular regard to the areas of intervention for the social services. Students should be able also to collect, systematize and analyze, with proficiency, methodological precision and command of terminology, the data on the social networks explored, and to use the results of these analysis to identify the possible network interventions. Finally, students should be able, through the acquired skills, to describe and analyze the outcomes produced by the network interventions.
