  • The Denial of Research Findings

    "I read it, I understand it, but I just don't agree with it" This statement is one of my pet peeves. When presented with a piece of research that does not fit in with their world view or ideology, students deny the validity of it over and over, based on an explanation that is nothing more...

  • Practicum

    Tomorrow I am to embark on an interview for the final practicum of my BSW. I'm not expecting any heavy grilling, but more both sides feeling the other out. Me finding out what I can learn at the site, them finding out what I can do. It is a community mental health site, but there is opportunity for...

  • Has the coverage of the events in Haringey changed your mind about which sector you might like to work in post qualification?

    Has it made you more or less likely to work in a child protection setting? In my case I am still keen to do this work eventually, but have more concerns now about the level of support that will be available.

  • New Social Work Blogs Found!

    I was surfing and searching the other day, and came upon a cache of social work blogs that I'd like to share. They all seem to be from NYU's Social Work program and they're quite good. I haven't gone through all of them enough to know about them, so I'll just post the links and let...

  • Social Work Poetry - III

    We were offered this poem in my Aboriginal Social Work class just last year. When we got around to discussing it, we all sat around blankly, a bunch of social workers attempting to understand poetry. The confusion was spectacular. Looking at it now, it's so simple. What was our problem? Anyways,...

  • So Much on my Plate!

    First off, thanks to everyone for the comments and discussion about MSW programs. It really allowed me to breathe a little bit knowing that I don't have to go in there and know exactly what's going on. Applications are coming along fine and I've gotten through a couple drafts of a personal...

  • The Quest for the MSW

    After some extensive research into schools across Canada, I have narrowed down my search for a Masters of Social Work program down to four schools. Acceptance into any one of them would mean moving away from where I am living now. It's exciting, and quite scary. As I've stated before, I don't...

  • Elections + the Economy and Food Banks

    I have a few things to comment on today. I'll just get to it! This is the craziest political season I've ever seen. We have the US elections, the Canadian elections and then our municipal elections are shortly thereafter. I'm getting overloaded! As much as I love the happenings of all these...

  • Countdown to Classes

    Well, I have just over three days left until my second last semester of my BSW begins. This semester, I have two electives and one social work elective to take. My social work elective is on family therapy. My other two electives are on the history of the Aboriginal people from my area and a class on...

  • Social Work Students - All Fun and Games...

    Tonight is our Social Work Student Association get together. This is where all social work students get together, get a free burger and beer and sing karaoke. Now, if you check out the title of this blog, you can probably guess that I won't be attending. You'd be right on that count. However...
