Service Learning Course(s): • Intimate Partner Violence (SOCW 2202) |
“The students learned, gained experience and critical perspective. The community partner got additional support, and got interesting, motivated people." Dr. Saltanat Childress is an assistant professor at UTA’s School of Social Work focused on family well-being, economic empowerment, and improving the responses of criminal justice. Familiar with service learning, she previously worked with the AmeriCorps program, where she taught courses on Domestic Violence and National AmeriCorps Service which provided members with the Certificate of a Victim Advocate. She is determined to bridge the gap between academia and practice, and this determination has led her to incorporate elements of experiential learning alongside pre and post debriefing and critical reflection into her master’s level Intimate Partner Violence course. |
