Educating for Social Justice: Transformative Experiential Learning
Synopsis
According to the NASW Code of Ethics, "social workers should challenge social injustice." Educating for Social Justice approaches this tenet head-on, defining it and offering numerous strategies to prompt student reflection and awareness of social justice in their own practice. Educating for Social Justice is a vital resource for instructors and practitioners alike as they work to better incorporate key values of social work into practice. The editors include an overview of social justice theories, practitioner-tested national and international ideas about incorporating social justice into educational experiences within and outside of the classroom, and offer "how-to" guides for instructors to replicate and build on the ideas presented.
