Social Work Assessment Report 2005

Submitted Fall, 2005

The Social Work Program at the University of Nebraska at Kearney is accredited at the baccalaureate level by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE), which mandates assessment of all program objectives and utilizing assessment outcomes for program renewal.  Therefore, this report is modeled after the program’s assessment report provided to CSWE in the 2004 Accreditation Self-Study (Volume I).  The UNK Social Work program engages in ongoing assessment for evaluating the outcome of each program objectives.  Assessment measures used by the program include Faculty evaluations of students, Student evaluation of faculty, Volunteer Experience Evaluation, Field Seminar student’s evaluation of the program, Field placement assessments, and Baccalaureate Education Assessment Project (BEAP).  BEAP instruments track students from entrance point into the Program until two years after graduation.  The BEAP Entrance survey and the Social Work Values Inventory at Entrance are administered each semester in the Human Services Ethics and Experience class (SOWK 172); BEAP Exit Survey and the Social Work Values Inventory at Exit is administered every semester to students completing their field placement and enrolled in the Field Seminar class (SOWK 482); and the BEAP Alumni Survey and BEAP Employer Survey are mailed out to every alumni of the program two years from the date of their graduation. 

The outcome of the above listed evaluations is analyzed by the Program Director, discussed with the faculty and shared with the Advisory Board and various program committees, especially Curriculum Committee.  The feedback gathered through this dissemination process is considered carefully and becomes the basis for initiating a plan of action.  The main committee examining curriculum issues is the Curriculum Committee which chaired by the Program Director and maintains membership of student representative, social work practitioners from the community, and all the program’s faculty. This committee considers the assessment outcomes and any recommendations made by various constituents.  Once the committee approves curriculum changes, the Program Director prepares all necessary paper work and initiates its passage through institutional channels for approval.  Changes made can improve existing curriculum, expand curriculum coverage, assess teaching methodology, and effectively address curriculum concerns that may impact the program’s ability to achieve its goals and objectives.  Like all program committees, the Curriculum Committee is active and meets once every semester or more if needed. Ultimately, the program is driven by the need to better understand and meet the personal, academic, and professional needs of students, as well as responsiveness to emerging practices and trends in the profession and community. 

The assessment table below lists the different program objectives, assessment tools utilized, and assessment outcome using mean scores.

Program Objective Assessment Measure Outcome Analysis & Recommendation

  3. Students improve in their understanding of professional values & ethics from entrance to exit. SWVI at Exit for 2004-2005 shows mean scores of 70.14 for client confidentiality, 62.82 for client self-determination, 80.8 for social justice. The scores show that UNK students fall within and above the national average in the areas noted.
  4. Exit survey shows the following mean scores, longitudinal and 2004-2004 respective: 9.0 and 8.9 for client respect, 9.4 & 9.4 confidentiality, 9.2 & 9.15 for self-determination, 9.05 & 8.8for nonjudgmentalism, 9.01 &8.95 for respect for diversity.

  5. Employer show mean score, longitudinal and 2004-2004 respectively of 8.23 & 8.1 or very good on a 10 point scale for practice with SOWK values and ethics.
 		 This is definitely an area of strength for the program with scores in the very good to superb range. The Program has worked diligently on integrating ethics from the point of students' entry to exit from the program. The program will maintain its current focus on the integration of social work values and ethics into the curriculum. The program's emphasis on ethics in its gate-keeping practices and policies aids the program in achieving this objective. For example, students must earn the grade of a “C” or better in SOWK 172 and a positive evaluation in their 50 hours volunteer experience as an admission condition into the program. This enhances the quality of students entering the program and assures the likelihood of adherence to professional standards of suitability for the profession.

Field Supervisors and employers rate the students and alumni higher than students rate themselves in relations to generalist practice with diverse clients. The Program works creatively to find ways that would integrate direct interaction with diverse populations into the curriculum. We will continue to brainstorm ways and avenues to promote this and to increase students confidence in their ability when serving diverse populations. Assignments, volunteer work, and field education where students learn through direct interaction and contact will continue to be utilized.
