“Writing is an invaluable tool which constructs a pathway toward excellence. It provides an opportunity for students to express themselves around the issues which impacts their world. Moreover, writing provides a conduit for faculty to assess the knowledge base of competencies procured through instruction. I am very excited about this innovative teaching product and invite others to discern its utility as a resource for engaging students in writing across the curriculum.” Dr. Catherine Gayle, Chair of the Department of Social Work and Associate Professor, Savannah State University “The Handbook for Social Work Writing is a comprehensive guide for professional writing, covering everything we wish our students knew about writing...but didn't have time to teach them. It has a conversational tone: easy to read but also clearly about things students need to know. I think it will be read. This text could be used across the curriculum—a chapter in one class and a chapter in another, until students really do know everything we wish they did about writing.” Professor Janice A. Gasker, BSW Program Director, Kutztown University of Pennsylvania
