EACH DISCUSSION POST MUST HAVE AT LEAST 2 PERR REVIEWED SOURCES

DISCUSSION 1:

Advanced Generalist Social Work Skills

According to Krogsrud Miley, O’Melia, and DuBois (2017), key social work skills include genuineness, trustworthiness, acceptance, and respect. These basic and essential skills are applied throughout the engagement process with clients.

Krogsrud Miley, O’Melia, and DuBois also discuss methods to construct empowering relationships such as the following: recognizing rights, taking responsibility, avoiding dual relationships, discussing rights and responsibilities, augmenting power, and respecting confidentiality.

For this discussion, imagine you are developing a group for substance-abusing teens. Seventeen-year-old Kali from the Campbell Family Case Study (linked in this unit) is one of the group members. She is very resistant to attending the group, as the time interferes with her social schedule. She is also concerned about the lack of confidentiality within her peer group.

For this discussion, reflect upon how it looks and feels like as a social worker to use key social work skills and methods to construct an empowering relationship:

1. Identify at least one of the social work skills you would adapt and use in this situation (genuineness, trustworthiness, acceptance, or respect). Give an example on how you would demonstrate that skill.
2. Identify one of the methods identified in this unit’s readings to construct an empowering relationship (recognizing rights, taking responsibility, avoiding dual relationships, discussing rights and responsibilities, augmenting power, and respecting confidentiality). Discuss how you would apply this method to Kali’s group.

Response Guidelines

Respond to at least one peer and provide support for the method selected or provide an alternative with evidence of why this would be an effective alternative.

A system is the sum of component parts. Each part may affect the way the other parts work. Traditionally, businesses have managed the separate parts of their systems by departmentalizing. These departments may achieve their goals, but they may also become a detriment to the organization.

Review the articles listed in this module’s required readings. On the basis of your analysis of these articles, respond to the following:

• What are the key points you find most interesting in each article?
• Which points discussed in these articles have changed your thinking about the following:
  • Organizational structure
  • Organizational diagnostics
  • Reasons why businesses hire consultants
  • The organization as a system

Write your initial response in approximately 400 words. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

A fundamental issue established at the outset of this course is the fact that becoming involved in terrorist activities is a process, where numerous factors can affect the mindset and actions of an individual. We have covered many of these issues and influences, so concerning this matter, compare and contrast at least two different radicalization models that explain terrorist motivations in a 4 page paper. In this research paper also summarize behavioral and psychological factors associated with disengaging from terrorism and describe what efforts or programs are most effective in countering radicalization and why.

Recommended Source: King, M. and Taylor, D. M. (2011). The Radicalization of Homegrown Jihadists: A Review of Theoretical Models and Social Psychological Evidence. Terrorism & Political Violence, 23(4), 602-618. You should start with this article and then use other sources as well to make sure you hit the 8 expected scholarly references for this research paper.

Assignment Specifics:

• The body of your report is to be at least FOUR FULL pages in length (not counting title page and references) and is to contain the following:
• A brief introduction, with the topic and your thesis
• A main body, containing the “meat” of the paper, where you provide the requested information supported by class readings and with your analysis
• A conclusion, summarizing your information clearly and concisely

Make sure you read the instructions carefully and that you focus your paper on answering the assigned questions. This assignment is a research paper, not an opinion paper, so you need to use scholarly sources to support your thesis. Use formal academic writing and do not use the first person such as ‘I’ or ‘my’; see the OWL site on academic writing style. Make sure you use APA style in-text parenthetical citations at the end of every sentence where you are quoting another’s ideas (or any information) that is not your own thoughts and words, like this (Bergen, 2015, para. 14). Citations are required for paraphrases as well, but not the page or paragraph number in that case. I highly recommend you use the APUS writing guide which can be found in the university library or at this link: APUS Research Writing and Style Guide. You are welcome to use supplementary sources to compliment the assigned readings based upon your research, but make sure you use only scholarly and credible sources (do not use open websites and you never want to use wikipedia for a college level paper). Also, dictionaries and encyclopedias as well as general news sites (like CNN, FOX News) are not appropriate for college level research papers. You need to use mainly scholarly and reputable academic books and journal articles. Also, see the APUS Library Homeland Security Program Guide for good sources, as well as the APUS Research Primer and the APUS Library Research FAQs.

Requirements:

• Written according to the APA style and format (parenthetical in-text citation formats only; not end notes or footnotes);
• Use Times New Roman 12 point font;
• 1 inch margins on all sides with no paragraph indentation other than the first line by .5 inches
• Double space all text (no extra lines or spaces after a paragraph or section headings and no added font sizes or lines either)
• A respectable number of credible resources used, cited in the paper as in-text citations, and included on the reference page. A good rule of thumb is at least 2 scholarly sources per page of content (a minimum of 2 new scholarly sources per page in a research paper is acceptable). Use those academic and credible sources provided to you throughout the course, as well as other scholarly material obtained from conducting your own research. Freely utilize appropriate and reputable academic sources, summarize in your own words and cite accordingly.
• The paper must be free of typographical, spelling and grammatical errors (make sure to proof read before submission)
• Turn your paper in as a Word Document and title your assignment “Lastname_Final“

Finally, be mindful of excessive direct quotes as the paper should not contain just a string of quotations from sources. Make sure you comply with all academic integrity standards expected by APUS and as slide 14 of the APUS Academic Integrity presentation posted in course syllabus (and the week 1 introduction forum) states “Quotes cannot make up more than 10% of the text of your assignment.” So paraphrase where you can and provide your own analysis and synthesis of your research (direct quotes only when necessary to support your thesis). The bottom line for academic integrity is to write an original work for this assignment (not copied from anywhere on the internet or recycled content from your own previous papers) and to properly cite your references.
