Module content:
BSP-20.1 Practical Phase
During the practical phase, students will be able to make the connection between the theoretical content of their studies and its practical application. Under the professional guidance of experienced practitioners of social work and childhood education, students will be encouraged to complement their knowledge and skills with practical experience. They will learn about and be able to reflect on aspects of their future role as a professional and the different framework conditions of social work and childhood education. The course does not focus on action-related practice, but rather explores professional practices and the practical, scientific and political framework for professional action.
It is an integral part of the study program and will be supervised by lecturers.
 
 
BSP-20.2 Theory-Practice-Seminar
In preparation for the practical semester, students will take part in a week-long theory-practice-seminar. The framework conditions for the practical semester will be discussed, students will be introduced to the format of (training) supervision, they will be able to discuss their expectations with regard to their role during the practical semester and will receive a methodical introduction to the concept of "studying in practice" as way of learning.
During the practical phase, students will deal with socio-educational and childhood educational problems and questions which they will systematically analyze using observation protocols. The students´ observation protocols will serve as the foundation for an exemplary case analysis, which, by contrasting empirical findings with social science theories, will contribute to the application of social work methods by the students, as well as provide a solid foundation in social science and encourage self-reflection of their social work. The theory-practice seminar aims at combining scientific knowledge with practical knowledge and demonstrating the importance of internships as places of reflexive learning, both on the level of professional judgement, knowledge acquisition, and the development of a habitual approach to pedagogical uncertainty.
 
BSP-20.3 Supervision and Peer Counselling
The object of supervision is the reflection of work relationships. The supervision process focusses on students´ roles, their motives and value orientations. The setting is group supervision. Students will learn from one another. They will receive support from their fellow students in assessing the practice situation, forming a hypothesis and developing solutions. By actually applying common methods, the methods themselves become more transparent and understandable for students.
In addition to supervision, students will spend a total of 6 hours in intervision groups.
