Edition DescriptionRevised edition,New Edition
SynopsisVery often research texts for social work students are dry, boring, and hard for students to relate to. Not this book. Nor do authors Judy L. Krysik and Jerry Finn shy away from teaching research skills that are actually interesting and useful to students interested in real-life social work practice. Six unique cases on the internet teach students how to apply research issues and skills to a variety of different levels of social work intervention, and clients., In this book and companion website you will find: A practice-oriented description of qualitative and quantitative research methods that engages rather than intimidates students Illustrations of real-life research and evaluation from different levels of social work practice, encompassing many populations Attention to the ethics and politics of research at each phase of the process, from the identification of an issue through reporting findings Exercises that provide hands-on learning opportunities in research and evaluation A historical, strengths-based perspective on research and evaluation in social work that teaches empowerment and professionalism Six in-depth, interactive, easy-to-access cases, that include data in SPSS and Excel A wealth of instructor-only resources available at www.routledgesw.com/research, including sample syllabi, links, multiple-choice, and free-response test items all linked to current EPAS standards, and PowerPoint presentations.
