Assignment Overview
What? You are a worker within a child-parent centre working with a range of families on guiding children’s behaviour. Create a 500-word report on each of the 3 presented case studies (total word count 1 500) to guide the centre’s work with these families. Your report should include the following information:
Possible reasons for the child’s behaviour that examine or refer to context, culture, gender
Strategies you would recommend for responding to the child’s behaviour, explanations of these strategies and your reasons for recommending them (your reasoning should be attentive to context, culture, gender and/or cultural competence)
A clear explanation of the theoretical approach(es) from which these strategies derive
A programme within the child-parent centre or relevant service that you might recommend the child/family attend and why.
Why?
Report
Reports aim to clearly transmit information about a topic that has been compiled as a result of research and analysis to a specific audience and for a specific purpose. As such, it is an essential communication skill needed for business, government and academia.
Problem solving
Being able to effectively solve problem is a highly sought-after skill by employers. You will develop your problem solving skills in this assessment when you identify and evaluate the relevant aspects of the issue /problem, break them down into their constituting parts, consider various ways of approaching and resolving the issue /problem, decide on the most appropriate way to overcome it and propose a way to monitor and seek feedback on the solution you put forward.

Case Studies for Assignment 1 2021
CHN3203
1) A two-and-a-half-year-old child who attends a supported playgroup with her mother is reluctant to engage in any activities. She hides behind her mother or won’t leave her side. She is often quite tearful and quite fearful and doesn’t like other children looking at her. The parent has told you (the case worker) that it is very draining: the parent would like to talk and join in and meet other parents in the group, but the child doesn’t allow this to happen.
2) A parent from a culturally and linguistically identified background comes to a transition to kindy session quite distressed. They have recently been told by a doctor that their almostfour-year-old should be able to dress and feed themselves without adult support. They report that they began to ask to the child to do so, but the child is refusing and insists that the parent continue to dress them and support their eating. The parent feels distressed about creating conflict in the relationship and feels that they have done the wrong thing by not teaching the child these skills earlier although they are just doing what they did with their older two children. They are also worried that the child will be disadvantaged in fouryear-old kindy next year as there will be no parent to support their dressing and eating needs.
3) The family support coordinator at your centre has been in conversation with a family in need of some additional support in guiding their child’s behaviour and asks you for advice. The child is 7 and the parents report that she is highly sensitive to criticism, won’t try new things at school or at home and responds angrily when the parents try to help her to do her homework or school readers. The parents are frustrated by the behaviour and tend to respond by telling her she needs to make an effort and that she won’t get to be good at anything if she doesn’t work at it. They are worried that she doesn’t have many friends at school and have noticed that she tends to be quite controlling when she does spend time with her friends.
4) You work in a supported playgroup at the child and parent centre. A two-year-old child who attends the playgroup with his mother has started to hit other children, sometimes with toys. The child hits mostly in situations when another child tries to play with toys that he is working with. The mother has not intervened when the child hits and seems to laugh it off as ‘boys’ behaviour. Other parents have started to ask you if the child can be excluded from the playgroup because of his behaviour, which they term ‘antisocial’. When one of the child’s older siblings attends the playgroup, you notice that the older child is quite physical both with the younger child and with their mother.
5) Write a case study of your choice and respond to it according to the provided questions*.
*Please note, if you choose this option you won’t be specifically allocated marks for the case study preparation; as the marking rubric sets out, you will only be allocated marks for the report that you provide. However, the quality of the report will be dependent on the quality of the case study you write, as the marker must be able to judge whether your responses and recommendations are appropriate.
