Preparing Students for Research and for Work with the Transgender Population: Exploring the Results of an Innovative Course Pairing

Abstract: In an effort to provide opportunities for social work students to develop competencies for research and for working with transgender individuals, the authors paired content in two separate undergraduate courses: cultural competence and research methods. A qualitative research study was designed to assess the impact of this curricular approach. Following completion of the two courses, students participated in focus groups to discuss their experiences and what they learned through the unique course pairing. Anal… Show more

“…Por ende, si bien es un paso relevante, se torna necesario materializar los contenidos de las normativas en las prácticas escolares, a fin de que encuentren su calado en los centros educativos y sus prácticas. De esta manera, como sostienen Levy et al (2013), se adquirirán ciertos conocimientos, valores y habilidades, entre otros aspectos, necesarios para ser culturalmente competentes con las no-heterosexualidades, las identidades trans y las intersexualidades.…”

These are key areas to address, but it is also important to understand what our profession is not addressing in our research, the ways in which it influences practice, and the impact our professional voice has on the societal perception of groups.…”
