Youth Work Process and Practice provides an overview of the central
concerns in youth work today, exploring what youth work actually
consists in and developing an authentic theoretical framework for
practice. This accessible textbook places the role of the
curriculum and idea of practice as a process at the centre of youth
work. Exploring important aspects of practice - such as
empowerment, participation and choice, group work, experiential
learning and the importance of relationship building - Jon Ord
explains how the idea of curriculum can be used to communicate,
legitimate and develop youth worth practice, as well as help to
articulate its value and importance. The book includes a detailed
and up-to-date analysis of the policy climate, looks at the
implications of its focus on measurability and outcomes and
discusses the impact of devolution in the UK on youth work
practice. It contrasts dominant contemporary perspectives of youth
and youth culture and argues that, rather than competing,
'informal' and 'social' education are twin aspects of an
educational practice which must emphasises both individual
development and wider social change. Youth Work Process and
Practice is an essential read for all students of youth and
community work and will also be an important reference for
practising youth workers.
