Technology in Practice

Assignment Overview

The social work profession is consistently exploring how technology should be used, instead of asking how social work professionals can effectively use it, manipulate it, and leverage it to meet needs. Subsequently, the adoption of technology has been slow in the profession; yet, a host of social media resources are readily available and widely used in other professions. Ultimately, social workers must become familiar with the new technologies that inform practice.

Assignment Description
There are a host of online resources that promote effective networking, client engagement, and advocacy. The purpose of this assignment is to identify the benefits and ethical considerations associated with using technology as an adjunct to social work practice. To gain insight on the guidelines that govern social work professionals' use of technology, review the "NASW, ASWB, CSWE, & CSWA Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice," linked in the resources.
