ABSTRACTSocial work has a proliferation of online courses. Both nursing and medicine have been using online technology for years with noted success within a variety of subjects. The current scoping review examined empirical research of online learning and satisfaction outcomes in social work, while also comparing results with nursing and medicine. Results showed that most social work studies that examined learning outcomes between online and traditional courses found differences, whereas approximately half of the studies in nursing and medicine reported no differences. Satisfaction results were more varied in each discipline. Taken together, both learning and satisfaction outcomes remain inconclusive due to documented limitations related to study designs. Implications for social work education are discussed and recommendations are provided. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationNotes on contributorsNicholas LanzieriNicholas Lanzieri is a Clinical Associate Professor of Social Work at New York University Silver School of Social Work.Stephen MaherStephen Maher is Librarian for Social Work & Psychology at New York University.Michelle R.

ABSTRACTThe COVID-19 pandemic introduced an unforeseen challenge to social work field education and drastically changed the landscape of social work direct practice. In March 2021, University of Toronto’s Factor-Inwentash Faculty of Social Work launched the Talk It Out Counseling Clinic (the Clinic), training MSW students to provide short-term counseling and wellness workshops to residents in the Greater Toronto Area. Based on a community partnership model with an antiracism and trauma-informed service orientation, the Clinic provides services targeting those who face multiple barriers to health and equity and those who belong to Black and other racialized communities. In this paper, we introduce the Clinic, including its staffing and structure, partnership model, and training curriculum, present operation updates, and discuss future directions.

ABSTRACTVia an asynchronous online discussion forum, 186 college students narrated a life history, as one of their grandparents, making “I” statements. The aim of this mixed method study was to further examine the intersectionality of race and gender revealed in these narratives. Thematic analyses were conducted to identify themes related to lived experiences of the grandparents, and how experiences were interpreted by students in their narratives. Differential vulnerability was reported based on gender and race. More women than men, and more persons of color than white narrators, reported greater life challenges and hardships in all major themes that emerged from the narratives. The intersectionality of race and gender and double jeopardy hypothesis were supported by the study findings. Data availability statementThe data that support the findings of this study are available on request from the corresponding author.

ABSTRACTSocial work research has adopted the scientific method rooted in the hard sciences as the gold standard for understanding human behavior and creating interventions and policies for both individual and systemic change. Current methodologies are rooted in White supremacy that lack the subjectivity needed to provide space for the effects of racism and oppression to be included in studies and evidence-based practice. Social work cannot be antiracist and anti-oppressive unless it creates an inclusive research methods class that is critical of what is considered scientific rigor. This teaching note presents the current evolution of a social work research methods class to promote critical thinking around what is believed to be the gold standard of scientific research. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author.Additional informationNotes on contributorsAdrienne Baldwin-WhiteDr. Adrienne Baldwin-White, PhD, is an Assistant Professor in the School of Social Work at Virginia Commonwealth University.

ABSTRACTUniversal instructional design (UID) is a framework that promotes a shift from individual remedial interventions to holistic learning models that are student-centered, accessible, and inclusive. Students with disabilities frequently report barriers that make educational experiences difficult, and recent studies report that students with disabilities experience ableism in their social work programs. UID strategies can decrease the need for students to make difficult self-disclosures to obtain academic accommodations, as learner diversity and accessibility are incorporated into all aspects of the course design and delivery. In this teaching note, we apply a UID framework adopted in social work education, illustrating how social work instructors can successfully implement UID principles into their teaching repertoires to enrich the social work education of all learners.

摘要通用教学设计(UID)是一个框架,它促进了从个体补救干预到以学生为中心、可获取和包容的整体学习模式的转变。残疾学生经常报告说,这些障碍使他们的教育经历变得困难,最近的研究报告说,残疾学生在他们的社会工作项目中经历了残疾歧视。UID策略可以减少学生为获得学术住宿而进行艰难的自我披露的需要,因为学习者的多样性和可访问性被纳入课程设计和交付的各个方面。在这篇教学笔记中,我们应用了社会工作教育中采用的UID框架,说明社会工作教师如何成功地将UID原则应用到他们的教学中,以丰富所有学习者的社会工作教育。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。作者简介:ami Goulden是纪念大学的助理教授。Rose C.

ABSTRACTField practicum is known as the “signature pedagogy” for social work. Though the Council of Social Work Education’s accreditation standards guide the placement processes, research on the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, asexual, and other sexual and gender minorities (LGBTQIA+) students shows that this population continues to face discrimination in practicum placements. In this point-of-view article, we present conflicts that can arise when programs do not have explicit conversations with agencies about LGBTQIA+ inclusivity. We discuss current accreditation standards and relevant points from the Code of Ethics that support implementation of specific protections for LGBTQIA+ students and clients in practicum placements. Recommendations are made for addressing barriers of equity now and in future iterations of the EPAS. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Notes1 The authors recognize the term ‘field’ is historically related to enslavement, indentured servitude, and other forms of labor injustice. As such, the authors support a change in this terminology as part of social work’s explicit intention to promote anti-racism and equity in our profession. The term ‘field’ is used in this article because it is the current language of the educational policies and accreditation standards, which is referenced and quoted throughout the article.Additional informationNotes on contributorsHeidi P.

摘要实习教学被誉为社会工作的“标志性教学法”。尽管社会工作教育委员会(Council of Social Work Education)的认证标准指导了实习过程,但对女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、变性人、酷儿、双性人、无性恋和其他性少数群体(LGBTQIA+)学生的经历进行的研究表明,这一群体在实习实习中仍然面临歧视。在这篇观点文章中,我们提出了当项目没有与机构就LGBTQIA+包容性进行明确对话时可能出现的冲突。我们将讨论当前的认证标准和《道德准则》中的相关要点,这些要点支持在实习实习中对LGBTQIA+学生和客户实施具体保护。提出建议,以解决当前和未来环境评价体系的公平障碍。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注1:作者认识到,“田地”一词在历史上与奴役、契约奴役和其他形式的劳动不公正有关。因此,作者支持改变这一术语,作为社会工作明确意图的一部分,以促进我们职业中的反种族主义和公平。在本文中使用术语“领域”,因为它是教育政策和认证标准的当前语言,在整个文章中被引用和引用。作者简介heidi P.

ABSTRACTSocial workers can help advance public health through increased acceptability of harm reduction principles and practices. This study evaluated Master of Social Work students’ attitudes towards harm reduction before and after a substance use and social work practice course and assessed differences in students’ attitude outcomes across multiple course instructors. Harm reduction attitudes were assessed using the Harm Reduction Acceptability Scale (HRAS). Results indicated that students exhibited more favorable attitudes towards harm reduction after course completion and experienced consistent learning about harm reduction across multiple sections/instructors. This has implications for integrating standardized health-related content within social work curricula to improve attitudes towards harm reduction and to encourage more widespread adoption of public health approaches for substance use.

ABSTRACTCertain student populations including youth formerly in foster care, first-generation college students, those with mental illness and substance abuse issues, and racial and ethnic minority students, face persistent challenges to their pursuit of college education, contributing to low graduation rates compared to their peers. This article details one university’s pilot program using social work practicum placements in multiple departments providing direct interventions with vulnerable students to increase retention and graduation rates with a focus on identifying barriers to success and connecting students to supports. Efforts were interprofessional, incorporating student support services, and social and emotional support. Placement in academic support services provided an interprofessional practice setting to intervene with students at risk of leaving college and continue to shape ongoing interventions. Implications for collaborative field education are explored, with the aim of describing the program’s successful interventions with vulnerable students and how they provided social work practicum students with crucial interprofessional settings to practice and refine their social work skills. Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the authors.Additional informationNotes on contributorsStephanie A. SaulnierStephanie A.
