    Competency 4: Engage In Practice-informed Research and Research-informed Practice

    Social workers understand quantitative and qualitative research methods and their respective roles in advancing a science of social
    work and in evaluating their practice. Social workers know the principles of logic, scientific inquiry, and culturally informed and
    ethical approaches to building knowledge. Social workers understand that evidence that informs practice derives from multi-
    disciplinary sources and multiple ways of knowing. They also understand the processes for translating research findings into effective
    practice.
    Social workers: (Component behaviors (CB))
    a. use practice experience and theory to inform scientific inquiry and research;
    b. apply critical thinking to engage in analysis of quantitative and qualitative research methods and research findings; and
    c. use and translate research evidence to inform and improve practice, policy, and service delivery.

    Element Name Link to the above CB(s) and explain the Picture
    rationale. Meaning, how does this element
    demonstrate competence?

    Power Point c. use and translate research evidence to Power Point on Cultural Sensitivity
    presentation on inform and improve practice, policy, and (See attached below)
    cultural sensitivity service delivery. (Counsel on Social Work
    Education, 2015)

    This artifact reflects my ability to use and


    translate research evidence to inform and
    improve practice, policy, and service delivery
    by showing how I was able to recognize a
    concern, conduct research to provide
    different methods of how to prevent and
    promote better practice at the agency, and
    deliver to the intended group. In the NASW
    Code of Ethics it states that, "Social workers
    should critically examine and keep current
    with emerging knowledge relevant to social
    work and fully use evaluation and research
    evidence in their professional practice."
    (National Association of Social Workers Code
    of Ethics, 2019) Based on this statement, I
    would say that this artifact exemplifies my
    ability to evaluate, and utilize research in
    order to improve practice and service
    delivery.
    Notes from SEL a. use practice experience and theory to
    Group Research inform scientific inquiry and research;
    (Counsel on Social Work Education, 2015)

    This artifact reflects the ability to use practice


    experience and theory to inform research
    because I was able to use previous knowledge
    and experience in working with groups to
    target areas of research I should focus on, as
    well as do more in depth research on models
    that I had already used before. In the NASW
    Code of Ethics it states that," Social workers
    should promote and facilitate evaluation and
    research to contribute to the development of
    knowledge." (National Association of Social
    Workers Code of Ethics, 2019) Based on this
    information I believe that that artifact is a
    prime example of using practice experience to
    inform research.
