當前我國的社會工作專業源自西方社會，在專業知識上，社會工作重視「人與環境」之互動。「環境」之差異會影響人的行為表現是容易理解的，並且「人」不只是從生理面向理解，在心理社會面向上也會因為生長環境和經驗之不同，而有所差異，所以「人在環境中」是一個複雜多變的概念。在實務做操作上，其社會工作專業服務之工作原則實際運用，以及價值與倫理之決策，亦需符合社會文化生活脈絡。就此而論，社會工作專業教育是不能讓學生忽視自身社會的文化與價值，而必須認識中國人的自我要求，以及在社會生活中禮義廉恥和忠孝仁愛信義和平等價值，「為人處事」應有人情、面子、報、和諧、緣分、命運、敬老尊賢人際關係交換法則，而不只是使用西方社會熟悉的公平、參與、民主、自由、尊重、保密、自決等概念下建構的處理問題方法、模式和理論，從體會如何在實務工作場域中提供順暢、有效的專業服務。

The current social work profession in our country originated from Western society. In terms of professional knowledge, social work attaches great importance to the interaction between "people and the environment." It is easy to understand that differences in "environment" will affect people's behavioral performance, and "people" are not only understood from the physiological aspect, but also have differences in the psychological and social aspects due to different growth environments and experiences. Therefore, "people in the environment" is a complex and changeable concept. In terms of practical operation, the actual application of the working principles of social work professional services, as well as the decision-making of values ​​and ethics, must also conform to the context of social and cultural life. In this regard, social work professional education cannot allow students to ignore the culture and values ​​of their own society, but must understand the self-requirements of the Chinese people, as well as the values ​​of propriety, justice, integrity, loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, trustworthiness, and equality in social life. "Dealing with others" should include human feelings, face, retribution, harmony, fate, and fate. The rules of interpersonal communication and exchange of luck, respecting the elderly and the wise, rather than just using the problem-solving methods, models and theories constructed under the familiar concepts of fairness, participation, democracy, freedom, respect, confidentiality, self-determination and other concepts familiar to Western society, learn how to provide smooth and effective professional services in the practical work field.
