Özet:

The researches on how people acquire and learn knowledge are based on very old times. Social learning theory, which is based on behavioral theories, but developed by criticizing the behavioral theories which treat people as a mechanical entity, is a theory that is widely accepted in today's world and frequently used in the field of education and psychology. Social learning theory includes a systematic explanation that people's learning activity is based on mutual interaction. Social learning theory emphasizes that the individual, the environment, and behaviors must be handled together in order to explain the learning processes, and in this respect, it is very similar to the individual approach in the environment of social work. The detailed explanations provided by the theory regarding the effects of the individual-environment interaction on individuals add a new dimension to the individual approach in its environment. At the same time, social learning theory, which suggests that individuals can learn by role modeling and observation, is highly functional for social work applications for children. In this study, first of all, general information about social learning theory is included, and then it is tried to explain how social learning theory is reflected in children's learning processes from a social work perspective.
