Course description
This course introduces research as a core practice skill that is important for generating, evaluating and using knowledge in social work and human services practice. Teaching modules concentrate on the social, political, cultural, and ethical context in which research knowledge is generated and used, key research principles and approaches, and skills in designing research and analysing qualitative and quantitative data. Bachelor of Social Work Honours students will need to successfully complete a literature review and ethics application and design a survey. These requirements will be built into the course.
