Social Work Education and Practice Educational Environments and Student Outcomes Management and Marketing Education

Abstract

This study presents pilot data using an instrument called the Implicit FactorsSurvey (IFS) that is designed to measure factors within the implicit curriculum,or the educational environment in which the explicit curriculum is delivered.The implicit factors explored included community, diversity, faculty advising,and support services. Also included in the IFS were field and academic experiences.Sixty-four graduating MSW students completed the survey, and descriptivedata and qualitative data were collected for each of the measured areas.Several important findings emerged from the data, including the variability inthe quality of classroom instruction that students received and the comfort levelthat students felt in expressing their political or religious views. Implicationsfor social work education and research are discussed.
