Child Maltreatment Fatalities: The Challenges for Social Work
No full textChild Maltreatment Fatalities (CMFs) are rare, tragic phenomena that impact everyone involved. Although there has been great progress in child welfare in reducing the rates of abuse and neglect, CMFs are the one area within child welfare where we continue to see increases. The social workers involved in CMF cases experience high-stress levels due to the death of the child and the bureaucratic processes involved. This Banded Dissertation is comprised of three different Products that look at the involvement social workers have in CMFs. Product One uses the Transactional Model of Stress and Coping to examine how CMFs impact social workers professionally and personally. Product Two is a qualitative systematic review of the literature on risk factors associated with child maltreatment fatalities and social workers’ knowledge about those risk factors. Finally, Product Three is a poster presentation on the themes and recommendations identified in Product One. To create adequate prevention programs, the problem must be clearly understood
Integrating a Responsive Trauma-Informed Pedagogy in Social Work Education: Events, Experiences, and Effects
Full text linkThis Banded Dissertation is comprised of three Scholarly Products that emphasize the need for undergraduate social work educators to become aware of the impact that trauma has on students’ academic achievement. A trauma-informed perspective is used as the framework to explore educators’ teaching practices and their perceptions of their student’s educational experiences. The first Product is a conceptual article titled, “Teaching Strategies to Effectively Engage Undergraduate Students Impacted by Trauma: An Exploration of African American Students”. This article analyzes the effects that adverse childhood experiences have on undergraduate students’ academic success. Trauma-informed teaching strategies are emphasized to support educators in providing students with a safe and liberating learning environment. The second Product is a scoping review titled, “Educational Experiences of Implementing a Trauma-Informed Pedagogy in Baccalaureate Social Work Education: A Scoping Review”. This Product evaluates the current educational experiences of students in social work programs where educators primarily practice from a trauma-informed approach. The third Product is a professional poster presentation that advocates for the inclusion of the six trauma-informed principles within baccalaureate education. This presentation was presented at the Lilly Conference located in San Diego, CA with a core motive to promote active and engaged learning. Empathizing, creating safe spaces, and opportunities within higher education for the oppressed and vulnerable populations is a collective mission and one that helps society shift the cultural narrative from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?
Retention of Bachelor Level Social Work Degree Holders
Full text linkThe overarching theme of this Banded Dissertation is the retention of bachelor level social workers as vital members of the field of social work. The first product of this Banded Dissertation is a conceptual paper that explains the importance of the Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) degree holder to the field. In this paper, I argued that the BSW degree holder is an integral part of the field of social work, thus asserting the importance of their retention in the field. The second product, survey research project with an online questionnaire and individual interviews, explores the factors that influence the career choices of BSW degree holders through an online survey and interviews.
