Ethics of Technology

The goal of this assignment is to assist students in recognizing the role of technology in our work and the values associated with the use of technology, two themes that are critical to ethical social work practice. In this assignment, identify a social media outlet and examine the source for possible ethical dilemmas related to social work practice (see NASW Code of Ethics). Write a 2-page double-spaced analysis of the ethical issues you see on the site. Include at least TWO standards from the NASW Code of Ethics in your analysis. Discuss the ethical issues that you observe about the site and how the site negotiates social work ethics (e.g. what strategies do they use (or not use) to ensure ethical use of technology?).  

You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.
