“Ignoring It Is a Problem”
The increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in social work is enhancing teaching through innovative technologies and is already changing how we prepare students for the workforce. While AI offers significant potential to revolutionize social work practice and education, its integration requires careful attention to ethical considerations to ensure its responsible and equitable use. This study explores the role of AI in social work through …
Digitalization and ICT in Social Work Education
Digital technologies or information and communication technologies (ICTs) are essential tools for enhancing educational learning outcomes. These technologies can be harnessed by social work educators for greater engagement and to foster critical thinking of social work students. However, there has been a lack of research that highlights how digital technologies are being used in social work education. This scoping review provides an overview of h…
Field Note—Creating Trauma-Informed Library Spaces
Public libraries play an increasingly vital role as a public hub and safe haven open to all, with innovative programming and services that increase literacy, access to resources, and capacity-building.

This paper explores women’s experiences in academia through collective biography from a feminist, transdisciplinary, intersectional frame. Crosscutting disciplines, classifications, and subject positions, we use dialogue to explore the nuances of what it is to be a woman in academia, and the experiences of building and developing community as women. We draw on data from a fall 2020 focus group where we each were part of a course in designing qual…

Following Arksey and O’Malley’s framework for conducting a scoping review, the research team undertook a scoping review of academic literature, such as peer-reviewed studies, academic conference presentations, and dissertations/theses, as well as so-called gray literature, including news articles and web search results.…
Power knowledge in social work
This article analyzes and interrogates knowledge-production practices in contemporary social work research and practice through the lens of Michel Foucault’s concept of power-knowledge. As a regime of power, social work produces forms of knowledge that stratify human subjects along the social fabric. As a result, social work practice and research alike can perpetuate binaries of human existence expressive of the Western context which fashioned it…
