Examining Social Work Education

This issue contains 11 articles by 40 authors, both national and international. The majority are empirical papers, using qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. More than one article presents a case study, which gives me an opportunity to promote this methodology. One of my first research projects was a case study of the child welfare system in the State of Indiana, as we were asked to focus only on Indiana’s system (Barton et al., 2006). In my role as editor of Advances in Social Work, I see many manuscripts that are in-depth studies of a department, classroom, or grant program, for example. These provide detailed information about a particular context in a “real-world” setting, thus receive the designation of case study.

Abstract

This issue contains 11 articles by 40 authors, both national and international. The majority are empirical papers, using qualitative, quantitative, or mixed methods. More than one article presents a case study, which gives me an opportunity to promote this methodology. One of my first research projects was a case study of the child welfare system in the State of Indiana, as we were asked to focus only on Indiana’s system (Barton et al., 2006). In my role as editor of Advances in Social Work, I see many manuscripts that are in-depth studies of a department, classroom, or grant program, for example. These provide detailed information about a particular context in a “real-world” setting, thus receive the designation of case study.
