Initial Response
Welcome to the final week of Research Methods. Understanding research is essential for effective social work practice. Throughout this course we have focused on making ethical decisions by applying the standards of the NASW Code of Ethics, relevant laws and regulations, models for ethical decision-making, ethical conduct of research, and additional codes of ethics as appropriate to context. We have also explored how social workers use practice experience and theory to inform scientific inquiry and research.
Readings, assignments and discussion posts allowed you to apply critical thinking to engage in analysis of quantitative and qualitative research methods and research findings. And finally, we have explored the importance of using and translating research evidence to inform and improve practice, policy, and service delivery.
