This situation can be either in the media (for example one you have sourced from a newspaper, or online through social media) or through your workplace.
    1. If using a workplace example, to maintain confidentiality,do not use real names.
    2. If you use a media article you must include a copy of the media article in the Appendix of your assignment.
  2. Undertake further research about your chosen topic to assist you in analysing and discussing it in your essay.
  3. You are required to completetwo separate analysesof the ethical dilemma you have identified above. The combined word limit for the both analyses is 1,500 words ± 10%.Note:Headings, citations, references and any appendices do not count towards your word limit,butquotations do. At the start of the assignment indicate in brackets the word count of your assignment excluding those items mentioned above.
    The components of the assignment are:
    1. Analysis One– use the Doing Ethics Technique (DET), ensuring you address each of the DET questions;and
    2. Analysis Two– Use theAustralian Computer Society Code of Professional Conduct(or similar), relating specific clauses from this code to the ethical issue/s, you have identified.
  4. Write anOverall Conclusion that ties the results of both Analysis One and Analysis Two together and which justifies the recommendations you have made through the two analyses.

Only use references that have been cited in the body of your assignment and ones that support what you have presented in your assignment.

NOTE: Format your assignment according to the instructions given in the Assessment Information, Presentationsection.

Rationale

The assessment item is designed to help you to build skills towards achieving the learning objectives, by requiring you to:

  • identify an ICT-related ethical issue in your workplace or a contemporary media article;
  • using an analysis technique (the Doing Ethics Technique (DET)), analyse the situation and the arguments it presents, to:
    • identify the ethical issues involved;
    • assess the implications of those issues; and
    • develop solutions to the issues
  • apply the ACS Code of Conduct to the analysis of an ethically questionable situation to determine the rightness or wrongness of actions/decisions made therein;
  • derive logical and justifiable conclusions to resolve the ethical issue(s);
  • develop structured, coherent and logical arguments to support or refute claims; and
  • apply proper academic referencing.
Which social hierarchies are involved in shaping the consciousness of the individual or group you are considering?

See the reading “Black Feminist Thought,” which can be accessed through the course website.

Collins (no relation to Randall Collins) is regarded as an advocate of critical theory, with a perspective that emphasizes both social structural relationships and the importance of social agency, the capacity of individuals to challenge the oppressions and inequalities that structure imposes on them. In the reading, you should be able to recognize the influence of the conflict tradition, especially Weber’s approach to stratification, and the microsociological branch of the Durkheimian tradition, with its emphasis on nonrational collective representations of group interests and identities formed through social interactions.

Collins is well known for her use of the concepts of standpoint and intersectionality. Standpoint refers to the necessity of accounting for the position and identity of the observer of social reality in evaluating their knowledge claims about that reality; pure objectivity is not possible. Intersectionality refers to the situation of individuals in multiple and cross-cutting social hierarchies and inequalities, resulting in complex identities and experiences of domination and subordination.

In this reading Collins is applying these ideas to the experience and activism of African American women in the United States. Note that Collins writes “…while common experiences may predispose Black women to develop a distinctive group consciousness, they guarantee neither that such a consciousness will develop among all women nor that it will be articulated as such by the group.” (p. 171).

For this exercise, try to expand her analysis by focusing on some other intersectionality of social hierarchies (such as race, gender, social class, religion, sexual orientation, or citizenship status) and their impact on identity and activism. You can apply it to your own situation or to that of some other group you are familiar with.

  1. Which social hierarchies are involved in shaping the consciousness of the individual or group you are considering? How do the positions of the individual or group in those hierarchies confer overlapping or conflicting dominant or subordinate status in US society?
  2. What evidence or examples, if any, do you see of specific awareness, identities, and activism on the part of the individual or group based on their intersectionality?

Is it proper for government to legislate religious tolerance?

Social work practice with couples, families, and groups raises a number of ethical concerns including confidentiality

Social work practice with couples, families, and groups raises a number of ethical concerns including confidentiality; confronting problematic behavior; enforcing or denying members’ participation; imposing the practitioner’s values on participants; practicing beyond one’s competence; navigating the complications of social media and the online environment; asking for and receiving feedback; and termination. Thinking back on your own experiences, spend a few minutes doing reflective writing on the following questions:

  • What are my views on family, gender, power, and privilege? How do they influence my own behaviors in group settings?
  • In what ways does my own family and/or cultural background contribute to these views?
  • How familiar, comfortable, and adaptable do I feel engaging with family, relational, and group dynamics?

In your discussion post, write a general reflection on what your answers revealed. Then, describe how you would prepare yourself to ensure a safe, fair, and equitable counseling environment for all participants in the group.

Provide a transcript of what happened during your field education experience,

A process recording is a written tool used by field education experience students, field instructors, and faculty to examine the dynamics of social work interactions in time. Process recordings can help in developing and refining interviewing and intervention skills. By conceptualizing and organizing ongoing activities with social work clients, you are able to clarify the purpose of interviews and interventions, identify personal and professional strengths and weaknesses, and improve self-awareness. The process recording is also a useful tool in exploring the interpersonal dynamics and values operating between you and the client system through an analysis of filtering the process used in recording a session.

For this Assignment, you will submit a process recording of your field education experiences specific to this week.

The Assignment (2–4 pages):

  • Provide a transcript of what happened during your field education experience, including a dialogue of interaction with a client.
  • Explain your interpretation of what occurred in the dialogue, including social work practice theories, and explain how it might relate to diversity or cultural competence covered this week.
  • Describe your reactions and/or any issues related to your interaction with a client during your field education experience.
  • Explain how you applied social work practice skills when performing the activities during your process recording.
