A Scoping Review on the Use of Experiential Learning in Professional Education on Intimate Partner Violence
Homophobic beliefs and attitudes among mid-adolescent boys
We hypothesized that if the ideas of hybrid masculinities held in our sample, we would find that overt homophobic attitudes and adherence to related patriarchal norms (e.g., avoidance of femininity) would decline over this period, but that the use of homophobic name-calling would remain differentiated in terms of to whom it was directed (e.g., a friend, someone they thought was gay). We did find a significant decline in homophobic attitudes and n…
Virtual Simulations to Train Social Workers for Competency-Based Learning
To successfully respond to the increasing needs and demands of clients, social workers must be equipped with a broad range of knowledge and skills. Due to limitations with traditional in-person methods, the field is considering virtual simulations to enhance students’ knowledge and competency-based skills. Virtual simulations are a method of using a computer/software/the Internet to teach knowledge and competency-based skills. In this article, we…
Developing Virtual Gaming Simulations to Promote Interdisciplinary Learning in Addressing Intimate Partner and Gender-Based Violence
Gender-based violence (GBV) is global issue, requiring specialized knowledge, attitudes, and skills. The most effective responses are interdisciplinary, involving social work, healthcare, and the justice system. While GBV was exacerbated during the pandemic, many students faced a reduced availability of practice opportunities to learn how to respond to GBV. The authors describe a teaching and learning project which expanded access to experiential…
Undergrad and Over 30
This study sought to respond to the increased number of mature students in social work education and the understudied topic of their experiences. The research deployed semi-structured interviews and thematic analysis to explore the benefits, challenges, and needs of mature students (N = 19) over the age of 30 in a Canadian Bachelor of Social Work program. Participant responses revealed multiple, intersecting factors that impacted their experience…

Integrating the Voices of Youth with Lived Experience as Co-researchers to Improve Research and Practice Approaches to Childhood Experiences of Intimate Partner Violence
Purpose Childhood experiences of intimate partner violence (CEIPV) is common, but youth voices are underrepresented in such research, and little is known about what they find helpful in counselling. The purpose of this research was to engage youth with lived experience to address the following questions: (1) What do youth with CEIPV identify as key competencies needed for CEIPV service providers? And (2) How can youth participatory action researc…
Towards Understanding the Client and Observer in the Peer-to-Peer Role-Play
The longstanding use of the peer-to-peer role-play offers social work students an introduction to developing their skills of intervention in a simulated client encounter. This experiential exercise permits students to practice the generalist skills involved in engaging, assessing, intervening, and terminating with clients in distress. Although the student social worker is the central player of this exercise, the client and observer have integral …
Responsible Pedagogy During a Pandemic
Teaching courses that contain potentially high-emotional impact such as interpersonal violence (IV), have been noted as challenging. This is exacerbated during a pandemic when rates of IV are on the rise and requirements for physical distancing result in many courses being taught online. Although scholars have identified inherent challenges to teaching IV content online, additional considerations and necessary precautions in terms of student phys…
Understanding Sexually Victimized Male Adolescents With Sexually Abusive Behaviors
A high percentage of adolescents with sexually abusive behaviors have been found to have a history of childhood sexual abuse (CSA). The purpose of this review is to synthesize literature specific to adolescents with sexually abusive behaviors who have histories of CSA. This review will explore characteristics of this subset of adolescents with sexually abusive behaviors, risk factors, etiological theories that aim to explain the pathway from chil…
Challenging Social Work Epistemology in Children’s Mental Health
Broadly, social work epistemology—what we know and how we know what we know—in child and adolescent mental health is dominated by professional discourses about the merits of evidence-based practice (EBP). As an approach to client-work and professional decision making, EBP is promoted as ‘the’ standard for an effective, efficient and ethical practice. Yet, as a discipline, have we failed to consider the ways our adoption of EBP may inadvertently c…
Toxic Masculinity and Mental Health in Young Women
The recent release of the Netflix series 13 Reasons Why, which focuses on the suicide of an adolescent girl, has been accompanied by a large amount of social commentary. However, most of this commentary focuses on the suicide itself and does not consider how the series constructs the root causes of suicide. In this brief article, we argue that from a feminist social work perspective, the series highlights a key root cause of mental health problem…
In whose words? Struggles and strategies of service providers working with immigrant clients with limited language abilities in the violence against women sector and child protection services
Newcomer and immigrant clients with limited language abilities face communication barriers that can compromise their capacity to make informed decisions about themselves and their children with serious implications for their families. These clients most likely had high proficiency of language in their country of origin but are learning the language of the new host country. Using a phenomenological design to elicit descriptions from and interpret …
Doing the right thing? (Re) Considering risk assessment and safety planning in child protection work with domestic violence cases
Does differential response make a difference
Large numbers of domestic violence ( DV ) cases on child protection caseloads have necessitated the development of practices that address both DV and child safety. The first step in this process is to gain an understanding of the differences between DV ‐involved cases and other forms of maltreatment. The implementation of a differential response service model in O ntario offered an opportunity to compare risk assessment ratings, service outcomes …
Dare to Be Human
Risky Business
Objective: A multistage, mixed-methods study using grounded theory with descriptive data was conducted to examine factors in disclosure of intimate partner violence (IPV). Method: In-depth interviews with individuals and focus groups were undertaken to collect data from 98 IPV survivors and service providers to identify influential factors. Quantitative data were also collected on adult trauma levels and child concerns from 20 women. Results: An …
Dilemmas and tensions facing a faith-based organisation promoting HIVprevention among young people in South Africa
Faith-based organisations (FBOs) are receiving growing attention for their roles in addressing HIV and AIDS in southern Africa. These roles, however, are not without philosophical challenges. Yet, to date, most references to the successes or limitations of FBOs have remained the domain of theoretical and, often, ideological debate. In this context, discussions about the roles of faith and FBOs in responding to HIV and AIDS often evoke extreme pos…
