Social work education is the cornerstone of preparing students to address complex social problems with professional competence and ethical sensitivity. As the field of social work develops, it is imperative to understand social work students' attitudes towards the relevance of their studies to real world practice. Aim of the research - to explore social work students' attitudes towards the relevance of their academic studies to real-world social work practice. Research subject - Social work students' attitudes towards the relevance of their studies. Research objectives: 1) identify the relevance of the study; 2) to explore how social work students perceive the relevance of their studies to their future professional practice. The study is based on a quantitative methodology, using a survey questionnaire to collect data from 97 students enrolled in a bachelor's degree programme in social work at a Lithuanian higher education institution. The study used descriptive statistics, correlation analysis and Kruskal-Wallis test to analyse the data. The results showed that students found the study process relevant and meaningful for their personal and professional development. Students generally appreciated the opportunity to apply their knowledge in real-life situations to improve their professional skills. However, state-funded students rated the study process as more relevant than non-state-funded students. The paper concludes that programmes can be attractive to social work students if they are designed and delivered in a way that promotes students' interest in their studies, the application of theory to practice, and support from lecturers and peers. This study contributes to the literature on social work education in higher education by providing insights into social work students' perceptions of the relevance of the study process.

“…It has been shown that a teacher's style can influence both the learning environment and the perceptions that students have of them. (Keerthigha & Singh, 2023). Although a lot of studies have been conducted on teaching styles, there is a dearth in studies when it comes to "preferred teaching styles" of students.…”

With the advent of New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, India has a vision to transform its education system by shifting its attention to learner-centred approach for holistic understanding of subjects using different styles of teaching and learning like activity-based learning and teaching in one’s own mother tongue. Students use different modalities to perceive, understand and learn different subjects taught in class. Based on the modalities used (visual, auditory or tactile), students may develop visual, auditory or kinesthetic styles of learning. This study aimed to identify learning styles and preferred teaching styles of current college students between the ages 18-25. In addition, the study seeks to understand the preferred teaching style opted by students. A comparison in terms gender, and educational level were made. Through convenient sampling technique willing participants were administered Barsch Learning Styles Inventory (Barsch, J. 1980) and were asked to rank various teaching styles like visual, auditory and kinesthetic in the order of their preference. Appropriate statistics were used for data analysis. The results of the study showed that college student’s preferences for learning styles were not influenced by gender or educational level. The order of preference of students in terms of preferred teaching style was found to be visual followed by auditory followed by tactile.
