Requirements/instructions below and attached:
1. Tell us a bit about yourself: Share your name, your
background, and what motivated you to pursue a
degree in social work. Additionally, if you have any prior experience or interest in macro-level practice or
research, please let us know. (Write about how nursing wasn’t the right path and social work was the better option holistically)
2. What social issues are you passionate about? Think about the larger societal challenges that ignite your
interest. Is it poverty, healthcare access, education,
inequality, or something else? Briefly discuss why you find this issue compelling and how you believe macro-
level social work could
make a difference. (Social issues interest 1.end of life care specifically in nursing homes 2.poverty in Washington state)
3. Initial research project idea: At this early stage, what are your thoughts on a potential research project? It could be related to a specific social issue you (my research is about single fathers and resources they may be lacking)
mentioned earlier or something entirely different. Share
a brief overview of your idea, including the problem you want to address and any initial thoughts on how you
might approach it.
4. Identifying the macro level: In the context of your
research project idea, how do you envision the macro-
level factors at play? What larger systems, policies, or institutions contribute to the issue you’re interested in?
This will help us understand how you’re thinking about the broader context.
5. Research method preferences: Research methods are the tools we use to explore and understand the
complexities of social issues. Do you have any preferences or initial thoughts about the type of research methods you might want to employ for your project? This could include quantitative methods like
surveys and data analysis, qualitative
methods like interviews and content analysis, or a mix of both.
