In this course, you will be asked to select one case study and to use it throughout the entire course. By doing this, you will have the opportunity to see how theories guide your view of a client and the client’s presenting problem. Although the case may be the same, each time you use a different theory, your perspective of the problem changes, which then changes how you go about asking the assessment questions and how you intervene.The first theoretical approach you will use to apply to a case study is systems theory. In other words, your theoretical orientation—your lens—will be systems theory as you analyze a social work case study.Different theories can be used to take a systems approach. For example, Bertalanffy’s General Systems Theoryconsiders how a system is made of smaller subsystems that influence each other and seek homeostasis, whereas Brofennerbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory focuses on how an individual’s experience is influenced by different system levels (micro, meso, exo, macro, and chrono). Systems theory is commonly used to understand the interrelationships of the systems (e.g., family, community, organizations, society) of the client. If you are working with families, communities, and organizations, it is also beneficial to use systems theory to get a holistic picture of all the interrelated parts of the system.To prepare: Select and focus on one of four case studies listed in the Learning Resources. You will use this same case study throughout the course.Focus on the identified client within your chosen case.Analyze the case using a systems approach, taking into consideration both family and community systems.Complete and submit the “Dissecting a Theory and Its Application to a Case Study” worksheet based on your analysis.

Using the attached document, fully explain what General Mier y Teran saw during his 1828 tour that made him believe Mexico might soon lose Texas. What kind of "corrective action" do you think he was advocating to prevent this? From your reading of Chapter 13 of the text, what were the two most important causes of the Texas Revolution? Which was more important to its outcome, the battle of the Alamo or of San Jacinto? Fully explain your choice. Answer in a good essay of 12 to 14 sentences. Be sure to cite the Shi text at least once with a page number to get full credit for your answer and make clear in the first part of the essay that you are using the contents of the Mier y Teran report.
