Please let me know what other theories & concepts you would like videos on! Would love to continue making these, but also want to make sure they will be helpful to viewers :) Thank you in advance!!
hey anna thanks a lot for this video. i am also a student of social work and i guess thats why youtube took me here could you maybe make a video on empowerment/ strengths theory? as thats the one i am currently on, thanks :)
@Your Father check out my recent videos! I did the strength-based perspective very recently :) I’ll plan more on empowerment specifically as well. so glad this video was helpful for you
This is actually the best video of its kind. Im studying for my LCSW and this is so helpful! The way you explain things in different contexts is perfect and gives such a full understanding. Thanks a million!
yay, I'm so glad it was helpful!!! there's a social work playlist on my channel page that has linked all the specific social work education videos I've done. but also each video mentions social work since it's a large part of my life :)
Anna thanks SO much for sharing your understanding of this. I'm mid assignment and this is really helping me grasp the overall concept of this theory before I get down in the weeds. You legend!! Big love from Byron Bay, Australia :)
Thank you for this video! I'm currently writing a paper for college on this theory and applying it to a case vignette. This video helped me understand the theory even more so thank you!!!
One - Oh my goodness, THANK YOU for posting this. I'm just starting social work in college this year and am looking into different information so I have that on hand. Two - thanks for having captions for us! :-) keep it up.
I’m so glad it was helpful for you! I’m just finishing up my social work school (got both bachelors and masters) so if you have any questions, let me know!! Or also check out the rest of the channel - the whole journey is documented :)
Thank you so much for this video. I am a teacher taking a Behaviour course as part of my professional development. Your video summary of the Ecological Theory of Development is the most concise nutshell explanation i've come across! Well done!
thank you for the suggestion!! & for watching :) volume has definitely been a learning curve for all my videos thus far but I’m hoping to get the hang of it soon.
This is such an easy-to-understand video; you are a lifesaver. I'm in my second year of a BSW program and my brain just wouldn't latch onto this theory until I watched this, thank you so much!
God bless you for this video 🥲. I’m a baby MSW student and today I might have had a mini meltdown over this theory. In my defense, it was in chapter 1 of the textbook and I thought to myself “Man if I can’t understand a beginner theory I’m in trouble for the next two years 😬”. Anyways, I feel better now tysm again ✨!
so useful! Looking to watch your other videos on other social work theorie! very glad to have stumbled upon this channel featuring your social work journey! All these social work majors channels are so hard to come by, so this is a real gem.
This was one of my very first videos made, so I definitely agree it could have used some more strategical filming. I'm sorry for the inconvenience but I hope the information was helpful! It may useful to slow the speed of the video down or take pause breaks for notes. Hope you're having a great day!!! 💗
Wow what a lecture. Thanks so much. Please next time kindly bring the back ground music down a little bit. Looking forward to more lectures from you. I am thinking of going back to uni for Masters in social work. Cheers.
I apologize for the music!! This was my 3rd RU-vid video ever and I definitely did not have a handle on editing quite yet. I'm glad it ended up being helpful for you!! There are also captions available if that makes it easier if you watch again. Thanks for watching!
hey anna, thank you for the video. im majoring in social welfare and learning about system theory this semester. if you have time, would you mind to make video about complex theory system? thank you!
The music was a production flaw :/ I've thought about remaking it without but haven't gotten around to it yet! Subtitles can help so you can turn the volume down. This is one of the first videos I ever made so there was a lot of room for improvement!
I have gotten a few requests for that so I'll try to get it up soon! Subscribe so you can for sure see when it gets posted :) Thank you for the suggestion!!
It seems you have some great points and explanation of the theory. However it's difficult to listen with music in the background. As this is not a personal vlog but a lesson of a particular theory, music is highly irrelevant. Bless up urself same way for the narrative and links.
Hey Anna. I am suraj. I am a teacher in india. . Your work is too good. .I like you. .and feel some. .you give me some understanding of English pedagogy
I have to write a research paper on childhood trauma and how teachers can build a trauma sensitive classroom. I'm supposed to connect it to a theory. Do you think this would be a good one to do?
Hi! They work together super closely. The Ecological Systems Theory itself just states how a person interacts with their "systems" and the Person-in-Environment is a specific approach for practitioners towards an individual. You really couldn't have person-in-environment without ecological systems, but person-in-environment also incorporates some biopsychosocial elements and some strengths-based perspective elements. Honestly, as I talked about application through this video, that started to be more person-in-environment just without naming it. They're super similar though!
I agree! This video was the second one I ever made and it's painful for me to listen to because of the background music. Thanks for watching! I think my editing has gotten better since this video 🤣
Thanks for the video. It explained things clearly. Would you mind answering a question for clarification, though? - Would a child getting a scholarship because they are from a refugee background be conceded an example of part of the microsystem or is it just concerned with the negative?
I'm not sure I completely understand your question, but my initial thought would be that a child's refugee status could be a part of their microsystem if a large part of their own personal identity is tied with being a refugee. However, I would more think of a refugee status being influenced heavily by the macrosystem considering the government's involvement with granting refugees asylum + the societal cause/issue that pushes an individual out of their home country.
I've been thinking about re-filming it! It was the second video I EVER created on RU-vid so I definitely never thought more than about 10 people would watch this one lolol the background music is awful volume, I agree. The good news is I've gotten better since this video!
I think the pandemic could and is influencing individuals at all levels! For example, if a loved one gets sick, that's microsystem. If a parent of a child loses a job, that's ecosystem. It can really fit all over!
