Case Study (Ethical Dilemma) Presentation (NOT Due until Nov. 1)
Purpose: The purpose of this assignment is to develop students' ability to identify ethical dilemmas, apply the NASW Code of Ethics and the Texas Behavioral Health Executive Council (BHEC) Code of Conduct, utilize an ethical decision-making model, and communicate ethical reasoning in a professional presentation. Students will also develop skills in reflective practice and professional discussion with peers.
For this assignment, you will be using a provided case study to create a PowerPoint presentation using technology within Canvas. You will address the bullet points below using a narrated (video) PowerPoint (using Canvas Studio). Each bullet point will have its own slide, and you will provide a recorded narrative when you present your information. You will submit this as a discussion board and will have to respond to at least two peers. Each slide will have your prompt, and you will need to professionally respond to that prompt.
I will provide you with the Ethical Dilemma, and you will need to address the following in your presentation:
· An overview or outline of the case (you can find pictures online to illustrate or represent your “clients” and add them to the slide);
· The most relevant core social work values (social justice, dignity and worth of all persons, competence, importance of human relationships, integrity, and service); address at least two.
· Reflect on any personal beliefs, assumptions, or values that may influence your decision-making. Explain how you would manage these biases to ensure ethical and professional practice;
· Identify and cite the specific section(s) of the NASW Code of Ethics and/or the Texas BHEC Code of Conduct that apply to the case. Explain why each standard is relevant;
· The steps you took to make an ethical decision using either the NASW decision making model or the ETHIC decision making model (find both below);
· A resolution of the case –Present your final recommendation and justify your decision using ethical principles, professional values, and your selected ethical decision-making model;
· A final reflective piece that processes your feelings about the assignment:
What was the most difficult ethical issue? What did you learn about yourself? How has this assignment prepared you for future social work practice? · References that you used in your assignment regarding the ethical principles;
Your presentation should be at least 10 minutes. Presentations will be prepared following APA writing style and checked for spelling and grammar.
You will also need to respond to two peers with substantive responses, including asking at least two questions to each peer. Each response should include:
One strength of the presentation One alternative ethical perspective or consideration Two thoughtful questions that promote professional discussion
