  • SW 402: Social Work Technology Comp.

    0.00 Credits
    Simmons University

    The technology workshops that you take this September are an important part of your social work education. In addition to practice and research skills, we believe that technology skills are no longer peripheral to the lives of social workers and their clients. Being familiar with key social work-related electronic resources, knowing how to access information, and being able to communicate with others electronically have become important skills in our profession. We believe that the information presented in these workshops will provide you with a foundation in computer- and information-based technologies that will be useful to you in your classes and fieldwork and will also be helpful to you after graduation.

    3.00 Credits
    Simmons University

    As an introduction to this intensive examination of the dynamic of various forms of oppression, an 'Oppression Matrix' is used to analyze racism from individual, institutional, and cultural perspectives. The words racism and oppression in the course title are deliberate, used to focus on a continual visual stigma, that of color, and the ongoing complex dialogue about race in current society. The course, in exploring whether the cost/impact of white racism to all individuals, whether white or persons of color, will examine various forms of racism/oppression to stimulate critical thinking and provide a framework for confronting racism and oppression more resourcefully on personal and professional levels. Practice issues are examined in relation to multi-level interventions.
