Description

Week 16 is the final week of class. We will be reviewing evaluations within group work. My dissertation, Campbell (2023) was based on participatory action research (PAR). I provide McDonald (2012) as a primer to doing PAR as a methodology social work group research. During week 15 we spend time looking at Community-Based Participatory Research Partnerships (CBPR) in the context of best practices for working with groups. The reading in Teufel-Shone et al. (2018) provides more of a understanding of what these groups look like, especially from the context of a group. The following are the topics for this session.

The agenda for this week is as follows:

• Evaluation designs for groups
• Difference between program evaluation and clinical evaluation
• What is a qualitative design methodology
• Participatory Action Research
