ABSTRACT

Social work students consistently dread research and research classes, but studies suggest that integrating research with more appealing topics may help overcome this bias. As such, a new class integrating public health and financial social work was developed with an applied research project. The course objective is to foster and strengthen student interest in research methods related to public health and financial social work. We outline how integrating public health and financial social work topics in a graduate research course provides a practical connection to clinical and macro practice for students. Instructors may adapt this model syllabus for any research courses taught in the social work curriculum in any country. Recommendations for linking social work practice with research are discussed.

摘要

社会工作专业的学生一直害怕研究和研究课程，但研究表明，将研究与更有吸引力的主题相结合可能有助于克服这种偏见。因此，通过应用研究项目开发了一个整合公共卫生和金融社会工作的新课程。课程目标是培养和加强学生对与公共卫生和金融社会工作相关的研究方法的兴趣。我们概述了如何在研究生研究课程中整合公共卫生和金融社会工作主题，为学生提供与临床和宏观实践的实际联系。教师可以将此示范教学大纲改编为任何国家社会工作课程中教授的任何研究课程。讨论了将社会工作实践与研究联系起来的建议。
