The document discusses task centered approaches to helping, which emerged from social work to provide a systematic yet practical process. It breaks problems down into discrete parts, sets mutually agreed upon goals, and proceeds in small sequential steps. The four stages are: 1) developing a problem focus through questioning, 2) reaching agreement on goals and contracts, 3) developing goals into manageable tasks, and 4) ending and reviewing the work. While pragmatic, it is critiqued for assuming rational clients able to identify problems and goals. Overall, task centered approaches aim to achieve tangible results quickly in a collaborative manner.

Task Centred Approaches to
Helping
Nathan Loynes

Cognitive Flexibility
• Last week you were introduced to the
work of DeBono and the ‘Thinking Hats’
approach to lateral thinking and problem
solving.
• In order to wear and switch ‘hats’, the
mentor must demonstrate ‘cognitive
flexibility’.

Cognitive Flexibility
• Related to Gardner’s concept of multiple
intelligences.
• Goleman’s Emotional Intelligence.
• Jones and Day (1996) discuss how social
intelligence and academic intelligence
might be distinct.
• Jones and Day analyse Cattell-Horn’s
(1966) theory of fluid and crystallized
intelligence.

Task Centred Approaches
Emerged from the field of Social Work, but can be
applicable to any endeavour involving casework
with people.
Evolved as a response to unstructured reactionary
casework management.
NB: Last week we considered how mentors must
work with the outlook and ‘reality’ of the client.
Task Centred work acknowledges that there
may be times where the mentor might need to
set the agenda

Task Centred Approaches
It can be seen as ‘atheoretical’ meaning that
it has ‘real life’ practical application.
You might think of this as a ‘bottom up’
process (i.e. working with practical
elements of people’s lives) rather than
subscribing to a strong ‘top down’
theoretical discipline: Contrast person
centred approaches.

Task Centred Approaches
• Task Centred work is systematic and
rooted in ‘Behavioural Psychology’.
• (Contrast Person Centred approaches)
• The task centred process is rooted in an
presupposition of ‘cause and effect’.

Howe, 1987
• Problems are broken down into
constituent parts and dealt with discretely.
• Goals are set, but, mutually agreed.
• Involvement proceeds in small, sequential
manageable steps.

Doel: There are four stages
1. Developing a focus on the problem
through effective questioning e.g.
DeBono’ White Hat processes.
2. Reaching agreement: Goals and
contract.
3. Develop goals into manageable tasks
(Like Friedman Outcomes
Accountability)
4. Ending and reviewing the work (APIR
and Reflection)

There is a critique of the Task
Centred Approach
• Success assumes that the client is rational
(Cf Solution Focussed and Person
Centred approaches)
• It relies on the clients ability to make
sense of what is wrong and what is
wanted.
• What is wanted depends on motivation
and feasibility (Cf Miller and Rollnick)

Most read

Conclusion
• Task centred approaches are pragmatic
and hence do not rely on a great
theoretical application of expertise on the
part of the mentor.
• TC approaches are able to achieve
tangible results very quickly.
• Mentee’s are able to appreciate the
benefits of this approach, especially if
results are tangible and timely.

Mentor’s mandate (anti-
oppressively, please!)
• Task Centred approaches can prevent
‘drift’ in casework and allows the
practitioner to define certain aspects of the
relationship including some of the goals.
However, Marsh and Doel are at pains to
express that this mentor goal setting
should be achieved with agreement and in
an anti-oppressive manner.

Parenting capacity to changeNathan Loynes

Parental capacity to care for a child is assessed based on factors like basic care, safety, emotional warmth, stimulation, guidance and boundaries, and stability. Risk factors include a history of abuse, unwanted pregnancy, parental abuse or mental health issues, isolation, unrealistic expectations, and substance abuse. Assessing capacity looks at a parent's ability to meet a child's needs over the long-term, not just during supervised visits. It employs a "good enough" standard of adequate care that protects a child's welfare given family risks and protections. Regular reassessment may be needed as circumstances change.

Supercharge Your AI Development with Local LLMsFrancesco Corti

In today's AI development landscape, developers face significant challenges when building applications that leverage powerful large language models (LLMs) through SaaS platforms like ChatGPT, Gemini, and others. While these services offer impressive capabilities, they come with substantial costs that can quickly escalate especially during the development lifecycle. Additionally, the inherent latency of web-based APIs creates frustrating bottlenecks during the critical testing and iteration phases of development, slowing down innovation and frustrating developers. This talk will introduce the transformative approach of integrating local LLMs directly into their development environments. By bringing these models closer to where the code lives, developers can dramatically accelerate development lifecycles while maintaining complete control over model selection and configuration. This methodology effectively reduces costs to zero by eliminating dependency on pay-per-use SaaS services, while opening new possibilities for comprehensive integration testing, rapid prototyping, and specialized use cases.

Microsoft Build 2025 takeaways in one presentationDigitalmara

Microsoft Build 2025 introduced significant updates. Everything revolves around AI. DigitalMara analyzed these announcements: • AI enhancements for Windows 11 By embedding AI capabilities directly into the OS, Microsoft is lowering the barrier for users to benefit from intelligent automation without requiring third-party tools. It's a practical step toward improving user experience, such as streamlining workflows and enhancing productivity. However, attention should be paid to data privacy, user control, and transparency of AI behavior. The implementation policy should be clear and ethical. • GitHub Copilot coding agent The introduction of coding agents is a meaningful step in everyday AI assistance. However, it still brings challenges. Some people compare agents with junior developers. They noted that while the agent can handle certain tasks, it often requires supervision and can introduce new issues. This innovation holds both potential and limitations. Balancing automation with human oversight is crucial to ensure quality and reliability. • Introduction of Natural Language Web NLWeb is a significant step toward a more natural and intuitive web experience. It can help users access content more easily and reduce reliance on traditional navigation. The open-source foundation provides developers with the flexibility to implement AI-driven interactions without rebuilding their existing platforms. NLWeb is a promising level of web interaction that complements, rather than replaces, well-designed UI. • Introduction of Model Context Protocol MCP provides a standardized method for connecting AI models with diverse tools and data sources. This approach simplifies the development of AI-driven applications, enhancing efficiency and scalability. Its open-source nature encourages broader adoption and collaboration within the developer community. Nevertheless, MCP can face challenges in compatibility across vendors and security in context sharing. Clear guidelines are crucial. • Windows Subsystem for Linux is open-sourced It's a positive step toward greater transparency and collaboration in the developer ecosystem. The community can now contribute to its evolution, helping identify issues and expand functionality faster. However, open-source software in a core system also introduces concerns around security, code quality management, and long-term maintenance. Microsoft’s continued involvement will be key to ensuring WSL remains stable and secure. • Azure AI Foundry platform hosts Grok 3 AI models Adding new models is a valuable expansion of AI development resources available at Azure. This provides developers with more flexibility in choosing language models that suit a range of application sizes and needs. Hosting on Azure makes access and integration easier when using Microsoft infrastructure.
