Students will learn to:
● Identify and describe empirically based strategies to address critical political,
organizational, individual, and environmental factors that influence the

● Identify and extract from the literature information that demonstrates awareness and understanding of theory-based practice by drawing on relevant research and practice literature, the social, political and organizational constraints on service development, as well as cross-cultural and ethical issues.
● Develop, monitor, review, and evaluate practice principles at the case, program,
and organizational levels, utilizing research-based technologies and strategies.
● Understand how to expand the knowledge base for applied practice, programming, evaluation and research by drawing on quantitative and qualitative methods for prevention, intervention and outcome research.
● Recognize the importance of incorporating a range of theoretical perspectives and research methods for furthering effective practice
● Critically evaluate the current theoretical frameworks, knowledge base, and
practice and research approaches with respect to considerations of justice and
equity
● Contribute to communities and social services within and outside of academia 
課程要求
1. Materials for instructions will come from a variety of sources, e.g., articles, audio/video recordings, interactive multimedia, websites. Whenever possible, these will be made available through Ceiba. Students should cover the materials assigned for a particular class prior to the class meeting for that session.

2. In addition, students will be asked to identify, bring to the class, and review material relating to class topics as well as their own area(s) of intellectual interest. Participate in class discussion actively.

3. Submit assignments on time.
3-1 3-5 questions in-class participation
3-2 A written mid-term paper of publishable quality that will be due on 4/17.
The contexts include research topic, TA, conceptual framework, hypotheses, theories, methods/intervention approach/module, literature/methods critiques, assessment/evaluation, expect outcomes (5 pages)
3-3 15-20 pages in length including reference. The student will be asked to formally present their paper to the class as a basis for discussion and feedback. In addiction, each student will be asked to write a belif (i.e. one to three pages) formal review and crique of two other student papers.

Class preparation and participation - enthusiasm, interest, open-mindedness, and a desire to share ideas and information - are important for succeeding in this course. Students will be asked
to prepare discussion questions for each class session.
