Professional Decision Making in Social Work
Annotated Bibliography with brief analysis of evidence-based practice (EBP) research
Instructions: Overview
This assessment requires you to choose a best practice in a social work topic and search for three types of evidence sources relevant to this topic. You will write annotations for the three different sources. In addition, you will provide a brief evaluative analysis (250 words) of the process and results of the evidence inquiry exercise, assessing the usefulness of the evidence inquiry process for practice decision making.

Your annotations need to be sourced from different research collections (e.g. one from a systematic review, one based on primary evidence in a published evaluation or research article, and one from 'grey-literature'). Please refer to topics and sources that are relevant to social work decision making - so when picking your topic ensure it is one where a social worker may need to make a decision on (for example, which medications are best to prescribe sits outside of a social workers scope of practice so is not a relevant topic).
Below are some suggested 'best practice in social work' inquiry topics. You may use these or identify your own (you are very welcome to check these on the Discussion Board or with your tutor).

- Drug and alcohol recovery interventions
