Evaluation of the First Web-Based Advanced Standing MSW Program
Wilke, Dina; Vinton, Linda
Journal of Social Work Education, v42 n3 p607-620 Fall 2006
The first completely Web-based advanced standing master of social work program began in 2002, and 32 students had graduated by 2005. This article presents a preliminary evaluation comparing the first two online cohorts with a face-to-face (F2F) cohort of advanced-standing students. Results showed several demographic differences between groups (e.g., online students were older and had more work experience than F2F students). There were few differences on a variety of educational and satisfaction outcomes with the exception of field, where instructors rated online students lower on several sections of the field evaluation measure. The implications for social work education are discussed. (Contains 3 tables.)
