Abstract

U suvremeno doba internet i moderne tehnologije su dio svakodnevice i koriste se u
svim sferama društva. Ovim radom nastoji se dobiti uvid u primjenu modernih
tehnologija u praksi socijalnog rada iz perspektive studenata socijalnog rada. Cilj je
bio utvrditi samoprocjenu digitalnih kompetencija studenata socijalnog rada te
procjenu buduće primjene modernih tehnologija u praksi socijalnog rada. U sklopu
ovog rada ispitana su osobna obilježja koja uključuju dob, godinu studija i
educiranost o modernim tehnologijama, te obilježja korištenja interneta koja
obuhvaćaju broj profila na društvenim mrežama, dob otvaranja prvog profila na
društvenim mrežama te dnevno korištenje interneta. U istraživanju je sudjelovao 71
student socijalnog rada s Pravnog fakulteta, Studijskog centra socijalnog rada u
Zagrebu. Metoda prikupljanja podataka bila je web-anketa, a mjerni instrument
anketni upitnik osmišljen u svrhu ovog istraživanja. Rezultati su pokazali da
sudionici procjenjuju svoje digitalne kompetencije prilično visoko, te većina smatra
primjenu modernih tehnologija potrebnim u budućoj praksi socijalnog rada.
Zaključak je da je potreba za primjenom modernih tehnologija postala sve prisutnija
u socijalnom radu, te je s time potreba za informiranjem i educiranjem na ovom
području velika i potrebna na svim razinama sustava.

Abstract (english)

In modern times, the internet and modern technologies are part of everyday life and
are used in all spheres of society. This paper seeks to gain insight into the
application of modern technologies in social work practice from the perspective of
social work students. The aim was to determine the self-assessment of digital
competences of social work students and to evaluate the future application of modern
technologies in social work practice. This paper examines personal characteristics
that include age, year of study and education in modern technologies, as well as
Internet usage characteristics, which include the number of profiles on social
networks, age of opening the first profile on social networks, and daily use of the
Internet. In the research participated 71 students of social work from the Pravni
fakultet Sveučilišta Zagrebu, Studijski centar socijalnog rada. The method of data
collection was a web-based survey, and a measuring instrument is a questionnaire
designed for the purpose of this research. The results show that the participants
evaluate their digital competences quite high, and most consider the use of modern
technologies necessary in the future practice of social work. The conclusion is that
the need for the application of modern technologies has become more and more
prevalent in social work, and thus the need for information and education in this
field is great and necessary at all levels of the system.
