1 Social Work Assessment Reporting Senior The below information is aggregate assessment data for the year The below listed competencies, 1-9, as well as the behavioral indicators beneath each competency are the required elements for all BSW programs accredited by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). The 10 th listed competency and the listed behavioral indicators have been added by the Creighton University Social Work program to integrate the rich context of the Jesuit, Catholic University in which it exists. Creighton University s Social Work program has been continuously accredited by CSWE since The assessment data summarized on the following pages are completed during the Social Work students senior year. Students are assessed on developing knowledge, values, skills, and cognitive/affective processing through all of their social work classes, but the measurement for final assessment occurs in their senior year after the students have had maximum time for instruction, learning experiences in the classroom and field setting, and have received feedback to continue to advance their performance. To provide context for the information below, this scale and following table are the tools used by practicum field instructors to evaluate students. The tool is built on a developmental model, expecting students to advance their skill performance and refinement across their senior year; with measures being done at the end of fall and spring semester. This tool aggregates the final developmental assessment the student receives; numbers are noted in the far right column. Student development is expected to follow the below scale: Fall Semester Spring Semester Student tends to begin with more observation Student requires more direction Student relies heavily on supervisor Student initiates activity and is more autonomous Student requires less direction Student collaborates with supervisor 1

2 Score NA Not able to evaluate this skill, behavior, or competency at this time. Additional note must be added for any rating at this for planning regarding student learning integration in experience. 1-2 Significant concerns regarding student performance with this skill, behavior, or competency. Additional note must be added for any rating at this for collaborative planning regarding student progression. 3-4 Student demonstrating beginning skill, knowledge or value; relies heavily on direction and/or supervision 5-6 Student demonstrating growth in skill, knowledge or value; relies moderately on direction and/or supervision; student should be performing at this on most items by end of fall semester 7-8 Student routinely demonstrates skill, knowledge, or value with less need for supervisor or direction. Students have reached basic of competent social work practice. This must be reached as on overall average by end of senior year to pass Student effectively and consistently demonstrates skill, knowledge, or value with mostly autonomous practice; knowing when to seek further supervision. Students goal is to reach this by end of practicum The benchmark of assessment that the Creighton Social Work program utilizes is based on our grading scale, with expectation that students will perform at a B (83%) or higher. A % Outstanding achievement and an unusual degree of intellectual initiative B % High of intellectual achievement B 83-86% Noteworthy of performance C % Performance beyond basic expectations of the course C 73-76% Satisfactory work D 63-72% Work of inferior quality, but passing F 62% and below Failure no credit 2
