Homework is to read about culturally competent research (Chap 5) and work really hard at Chapter 6, Problem Formulation.
I'm going to quiz you on the NASW ethics as they apply to researchers and the Institutional Review Board (IRB) process, what we want from you and how you should go about convincing us that your research is ethical.
I might give you a few hints in the next couple of weeks on the blog. Come on over once in awhile to see if there's anything new.

Ethics
There are ethics to everything we do, in everything we see. As social workers we have an obligation to uphold the ethics of our profession.
When you studied for your Masters degree, you learned the social work code of ethics and applied it to practice. Now you'll be using similar principles for research.
Let's ask this question first. If social workers had produced the original Mash television series, would NASW have permitted the use of this song?
Watch these videos about research gone awry.
First we see Vanessa Northington Gamble, M.D., Ph.D., Associate Professor at Johns Hopkins University, and is an internationally recognized expert on the history of race and racism in American medicine,cultural competence, and diversity. She discusses the enduring causes and consequences of the Tuskegee Syphilis Study Series: LeNoir - NMA Pediatric Lecture Series [Health and Medicine] [Professional Medical Education] [Show ID: 7025] (less)
And this one is on the Milgram Studies. Can you see how people push that button? Why do you think people rely so much on authority? If you were to design a study about authority, how could you contribute to the literature and social science without using deception?
Our code of ethics is profound. It is required reading for this course. Not only does it illustrate the heart of ethical practice and research, but it might help you to see where you want to go with your doctoral research proposal. Keep in mind that your research should be important to our field, and that the primary mission of our field is to enhance human well-being.

Paradigms, theory, deduction and induction
The lecture is in 7 parts, short audio clips.
Each one has a title, like "DW_B0069.wav".
The seven clips are DW_B0068, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, up to DW_B0074. All files
Click HERE to begin Part 1 68
Click Here to begin Part 2 69
Click HERE to begin Part 3 70
Click Here to begin Part 4 71
Click Here to begin Part 5 72
Click Here to begin Part 6 73
Click Here to begin Part 7 74
You're going to go to the web site that hosts these mini lectures in a minute. They're embedded in boxes that look like record albums or CD's. Each box holds one snip of my lecture and has a name like DW_B0068. You'll then click on them one at a time to hear me teach.
ESnips put the clips up on two different pages, but backwards, last to first, not first to last. So the first and second clips are on the second page. Wouldn't you just know it.
When you click here, you'll scroll down on page two to two boxes with the first two files.,
Do that now, and click on DW_B0068.wav, the one farthest down the page. After you finish that, click on DW_B0069.wav.
When you have finished listening to those two, you'll click on "Previous" or the little square with the "1" to get to the other snips on page 1.
It looks like this: Page: « Previous 1 2 You click "1" or "Previous".
Again, scroll down to almost the bottom, begin with DW_B0070.wav, and make yourself up to the top. You'll listen to DW_B0071.wav, then DW_B0072.wav, then DW_B0073.wav,end with DW_0074, in that order.
We'll give it a try, okay?
