MSW program directors in the United States: A scoping survey of responsibilities, preparation, and support
A survey of Master of Social Work (MSW) program directors in the United States investigated their current role including their environment, tasks and preparation, and support. Most respondents were untenured when they assumed the role, only 20% were head of their unit, and few had received any training. Despite working an average of 50 hours a week, lack of time for scholarship and managing competing priorities were top stressors, while joys incl…
‘Don’t flip out!’: Flipping the research methods classroom to improve student performance
Technology is opening doors to new methods of instruction that can support the learning of different types of students; flipped learning is one such approach. Due to its structure and theoretical underpinnings, flipped learning can help overcome the well-documented negative student attitudes towards research class to help them achieve the required learning.

Moving social work from international social work to global social work through aligning SDG principles and social work education standards
Much as the Sustainable Development Goals represent an evolution in shared global responsibility for development from the Millennium Development Goals, social work education can evolve from considering ‘international social work’ to thinking of ‘global social work.’ This evolution would consider social issues as shared across national borders rather than isolated to a nation or region and that all social workers, regardless of their home nation, …
Looking Back to Move Us Forward: Social Workers Deliver Justice as Human Rights Professionals
Social work was a progressive profession at its founding, and social workers sought to transform people's lives through wide-ranging reforms and work with individuals and communities. Over time, social work has evolved into a more conservative profession. Social workers have perpetuated oppressive policies, structures, and practices that marginalize vulnerable populations. This paper revisits the history of our profession and presents a human rig…

Turning the Calendar Page to a New Era
Vare sig det handlar om olyckshändelser, terroristattacker eller krigshandlingar finns risken att byggnader i samhället utsätts för explosioner. Huruvida hänsyn tas till detta vid dimensionering och analys av en byggnad beror bland annat på hur stor risken är för att en sådan last ska uppkomma samt hur stor skada denna kan tillåtas orsaka på byggnaden, dess inventarier och på personer i eller i närheten av byggnaden. Att responsen för en struktur…

Social Work Is a Human Rights Profession
As defined by the International Federation of Social Workers, social work is a human rights profession. This is explicitly stated in the professional codes of ethics in many nations. However, the most recent version of the Code of Ethics of the National Association of Social Workers continues to exclude any mention of human rights, fitting in with the history of U.S. exceptionalism on this subject. Social workers around the world have a long hist…
Local Law Enforcement Officers' Knowledge of Human Trafficking: Ability to Define, Identify, and Assist
Local law enforcement officers have been identified as key figures in the fight against human trafficking, yet training has lagged, and their preparation to fulfill this role is unknown. Thus, 175 U.S. local law enforcement officers completed a survey assessing their ability to define human trafficking and to identify and assist its survivors. Approximately 17% of officers reported receiving training on human trafficking, while two thirds relied …
