社會個案工作方法為社工實務工作者最常使用的工作方法之一,為使學生在實習階段與職場工作中,能妥適運用此工作方法,教師在設計社會個案工作課程內容時,應納入實務工作者的觀點,思考應傳授學生哪些專業核心能力,以讓教育現場所教授之社工內涵,能接軌現行社會個案工作實務運作過程中所需之專業知識、價值與技巧。本研究採修正式德菲法,邀請25位目前任職於社會工作五大專科領域,具10年以上實務工作年資或具專科社工師資格,並曾擔任社會工作學系學生實習督導之實務工作者,共同建構社會個案工作核心能力評量表。在歷經四回合的意見收集與共識建立後,最終建構具本土性與世代性之七向度(會談態度與技巧、文化能力、預估、介入、評估、紀錄撰寫、專業省察)、27道題、以5點量表方式評量的社會個案工作核心能力評量表。該評量指標可做為教師教學時之參考,亦可提供學生檢視自身於社會個案工作方法的學習狀況。
