Social Work Research: Practice Evaluation

This course prepares students to understand and critically evaluate use applied research in evaluating social work practice. The ideological assumptions underlying qualitative and quantitative research methods will be examined. Students will consider ethical issues as they conduct a literature review, identify a research problem relevant for interventions for diverse populations, formulate a research question and hypotheses, develop an appropriate design and methodology considering quantitative and qualitative options, and indicate appropriate analytical methods (statistical and/or qualitative).
