Learn to use the latest technological advances in evidence-based
social work Social work practice can be positively or negatively
impacted by the advance of technology. Advances and applications
must be up-to-date as possible, yet they may be ineffective if not
simple enough to easily learn and use. InformationTechnology and
Evidence-Based Social Work presents leading social work experts
exploring the latest technological advances and the innovative
practical applications which can be used effectively in
evidence-based social work. Students and practitioners get creative
practical advice on how best understand technology and apply it to
their work. Information Technology and Evidence-Based Social Work
is divided into four sections. The first section provides the
context for understanding the technological link between social
work and evidence-based practice. The second section presents
examples of how information technology can be used to effectively
teach students and practitioners in the field. Section three
explores ways to implement technology for use by clients. The
fourth section summarizes and then takes a look at the future of
technology in evidence-based social work. Chapters include
questions for practitioners and for clients to illuminate the
current and future issues surrounding technology and evidence-based
practice. The text also includes extensive references, and useful
tables and figures. Topics in Information Technology and
Evidence-Based Social Work include: the impact of technology on
social work computer-assisted evidence-based practice customized
web-based technology and its use in clinical supervision enhanced

This manual guides macro practitioners as they bring service users
into the community planning process. The authors have developed the
Community Development Planning Model (CDPM)-a cohesive eight step
planning framework anchored in the concept of empowerment. This
framework changes the relationship between service users and
providers by structuring defined parallel and joint planning tracks
that encourage not only service user participation but leadership,
and promotes democratic decision-making. Using this model to engage
service users encourages transparency, allows for the inclusion of
minority voices, and increases planning and program effectiveness.
This approach will be a significant asset in community planning and
development courses. The author's manual helps students understand
both the complexity of managing stakeholder relationships and the
necessity of a rigorous evidence-informed approach to planning.
