Introduction to Social Work - Michael A. Wright - Bog

In this Introduction to Social Work text, the Hegelian Dialectic (thesis, antithesis, synthesis) is introduced. An example essay is provided at the end of each chapter. A rubric is also provided in this text to support evaluation of the form requirement.
The goal is for students to learn and practice logical writing and receive an introduction to synthesis/integration. Students practice the ability to articulate how two contradictory ideas can coexist. The reward reveals itself in later classes. Logic discussions and literature review are potentially less dualistic. Students evidence a greater tolerance for ambiguity and opposing viewpoints during discussions.
