Article Review
One of your ethical responsibilities as a social worker is to stay up to date on trends and emerging evidence-based practices (EBP). Applying EBP includes two steps: (1) researching for further information or ways to solve a problem; and (2) putting that information or solution into practice. Your field experience is the optimal setting to try this out, with the support of your field instructor.
During your Week 1 Field Seminar, you identified a social work topic and searched in the Walden Library for a journal article on that topic. For this Assignment, you will engage in the first step of EBP by reading and reviewing an article that is relevant to your field experience. As you do so, you will consider the second step: the informations application to generalist practice.
To prepare:
- If you have not already done so: Using the Walden Library, search for a journal article on the social work topic you identified in the Week 1 Seminar.
- Read the article critically, and then consider its application to your field experience setting.
