Re-emergence of racial and ethnic tensions
In recent months, there has been a re-emergence of racial and ethnic tensions within the United States. In this assignment, you (students) will select a news
media discussion, newspaper article, or a social or political leader’s interview examine critically your perspectives on the topic discussed. You will reflect on
your background and understanding of your values, struggles, and/or privileges. Through this exercise, you will begin to recognize the extent to which sociocultural and historical values may oppress, marginalize, alienate, create or enhance privilege and power. You will also gain sufficient self-awareness to
eliminate the influence of personal biases and personal values in working with diverse groups. Finally, you will begin to explore the implications of cultural
competency standards for professional social workers.

adherence to American Psychological Association’s writing style [APA]). Please attach your article or interview reference used.

In what areas do your values diverge from social work values?
How might any areas of difference between your values and social work values affect your ability to practice social work?
Autism Spectrum Disorder Evaluation tools
Discussed in Chapter 7, monitoring and evaluating the success of your interventions/treatment is important. How do you know that what you are doing is
working? Evaluation methods are used in collaboration with the client to measure the outcomes of the treatments provided. While the text reviews both
qualitative and quantitative measures, you will be requested to identify a quantitative evaluation tool that measures the disorder you used for your Clinical
Intervention Paper. I have attached multiple examples of commonly used evaluation tools.
It can take time to identify the proper tool. Do not simply use the first one you find. In your search, use the name of your disorder and words such as scale,
questionnaire, survey, inventory, etc. You might also include the population (adult, adolescent, etc.) in your search.
1) Identify (with detail) and cite an evaluation tool. What is the name of the tool? How many questions/items does it have? How do participants answer/use the tool? Cite in APA format w/ reference. (minimum of 1-2 paragraphs) – 10 points
2) What is the purpose of the tool, and how is it helpful/important to your client? What does it measure, or how is it measurable? How do you know improvements are being made? What is a bad/good score? Support/Cite your response (minimum of 2-3 paragraphs) 10 points
3) How often would you administer this tool, and why? Support/Cite your response (minimum 1-2 paragraphs) 5 points
4) How will you use your results to direct treatment with your client? How can you use this information regarding the termination of services? (minimum 1-2 paragraphs) 3 points
