Macro Assignment

Abstract

Recognizing that social work students traditionally intend to work with individual clients, the authors developed the macro assignment described in this article to encourage master’s-level social work students to stretch their thinking about social work interventions to larger and larger systems. The authors summarize six student presentations and analyze students’ evaluations of the assignment. They assert that if, in a cognitive exercise, students can conceptualize interventions on such scales, they may be able to design programs for agencies and larger populations in their future professional roles.
