Assignment 2: Final Evaluation

Throughout the past nine weeks, you have had the ability to apply social work practice skills in a real-world setting. As you approach the end of the first semester field education experiences, you will undergo a formal evaluation of your social work practice skills. This evaluation will assist you in identifying the mastery of certain skills for social work practice as well as identifying potential weaknesses. As you review your evaluation, the opportunity to engage in personal professional development should remain a consideration for the remainder of your program.

For this Assignment, reflect on your field education experience. Review the results of your final evaluation, and reflect on what you would like to gain in future field education experiences.

Note: You should receive your final evaluation from you field instructor.

 

The Assignment: (1–2 pages) 

o   Explain whether you demonstrated social work practice skills throughout your field education experience, including a description of each social work practice skill and the measure(s) provided in the final evaluation.

o   Describe potential areas where you might need improvement in relation to social work practice skills.

o   Explain how your next field education experience might address those areas.

The last two decades has seen a sharp rise in the number of individual’s diagnosed with autism

/in /by

The last two decades has seen a sharp rise in the number of individual’s diagnosed with autism and autistic-spectrum disorders. There have been numerous theories about what has contributed to this rise, ranging from early-life overexposure to mercury, to adverse reactions to vaccines. Some suggest that the increase in cases of autism may simply be the result in advances in our understanding of neurological functioning and more precise assessment tools. The exact causes of autism and what may contribute to the increase of identified cases remains unknown, as well as a hotly debated issue.

Something similar happened in American during the 1980s, when there was a significant increase in the number of children diagnosed with attention deficit/ hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Once again, people worried that ADHD was caused by exposure to toxins, post-natal vaccines and a host of other factors.

 

In 1-2 Paragraphs

 

What are your thoughts on the matters outlined above? Should doctors rethink the current practices of child vaccination? What might be the causes of autism and what steps might be taken to better address the matter? Explain.

Module 5: Module 5 – M5 Assignment 2 LASA

 

Assignment 2: LASA: Etiology and TreatmentIn M3 Assignment 2 RA, you reviewed a case study about Jessica, made primary and secondary diagnoses, and identified differential diagnoses for each principal and secondary diagnosis. The skills you developed and the feedback you received after completing this required assignment, will significantly help you in completing the following LASA. For example, both assignments (RA and LASA), require you to complete similar tasks such as identifying the principal and secondary diagnoses, providing rationale for the diagnoses, and offering differential (alternative) diagnoses.

In this assignment, you will discuss the etiology and treatment of your principal and secondary diagnoses for the following case study using a minimum of five peer-reviewed sources on etiology and a minimum of five peer-reviewed sources on treatment. Your paper should have separate sections for the etiology of each principal and secondary diagnosis, therapeutic modalities for each principal and secondary diagnosis, justification of the selected therapeutic modalities for the disorders, application of the treatment for the disorders, and a reference page for your sources. Your citations and references should be in APA style, and your paper should be 8–10 pages in length.

Click here to read the second case study (Psychological Evaluation for Homer Brine).

Once you read the case, complete the following tasks:

  • Identify a principal and secondary diagnosis for the assigned case study with rationale for each diagnosis.
  • Describe multiple elements of the etiology for the principal and secondary diagnoses. Explain how the etiology contributed to each (principal and secondary) diagnosis.
  • Identify a specific therapeutic modality for each principal and secondary diagnosis.
  • Apply therapeutic modality to treat each of the principal and secondary diagnoses in the case study.
  • Identify at least one differential (alternate) diagnosis for the principal and secondary diagnoses.

Assignment: Scholar Practitioner Project Assignment: 12-Step Programs and Community resources

The value of mutual support groups as a community resource has been widely recognized, and most treatment professionals encourage participation. The most well-known support groups are the 12-step groups. The original 12-step support group, Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), was founded in the 1930s. Since then, the 12-step philosophy has been applied to almost every addiction known.

For this Assignment, you analyze the role of community resources, including 12-step programs, in supporting addiction recovery. Revisit the media from previous weeks to prepare for the Assignment.

Assignment:

 In a 3 page APA-formatted paper, address the following:

 

o   Create a list of community (Idaho) resources in the community in which you live.

o   Describe two individual resources from your list that you might recommend for Marge and two community resources that you might recommend for Marge’s family.

o   Explain why those resources might be suitable for supporting Marge’s recovery.

o   Explain the stepped approach to 12-step programs and how this relates to the treatment of Marge.

o   Explain the role of spirituality in 12-step programs.
