Social Work: Research

Understand social work practice through the critical examination of methods associated with decision-making, critical thinking, and ethical judgment.



The course integrates the core themes related to multiculturalism and diversity; social justice and social change; promotion, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation; and behavioral and social science research.



You will learn how to formulate appropriate research questions and hypotheses, techniques for testing relationships and patterns among variables, methods of data collection, methods to assess and improve the validity and reliability of data and measures, and the ethics of scientific inquiry.



This course will cover:



• quantitative and qualitative research methods



• commonly used statistical procedures



• approaches to the evaluation of practice



Learn how to understand and appreciate a scientific approach to building practice knowledge and for evaluating practice, and to use research to advocate for clients and inform policy. Special emphasis will be placed on increasing one's ability to formulate research questions, apply research methods, conduct statistical analysis, and interpret research reports. The latest statistical, graphical, and display technologies will be used.



This course is part of the Social Work: Practice, Policy and Research MicroMasters Program offered by MichiganX.
