Ethics and Boundaries
The Ethical Use of Cyber Space in the Helping Professions: Navigating Client Contact and the World Wide Web
Workshop Description:
This workshop focuses on the ethical and boundary-related challenges that can exist when using technology in our professional and personal lives. Content includes recognition of the creative and innovative uses of technology in the helping professions, as well as how it may be mis-used. Consideration is given to those who use this technology, as well as those affected by its use.
The instructional format for this workshop includes: interactive lecture, focused discussion, applied-practice exercises, small group work, and multi-media presentations. Each of these is designed to foster application of workshop content to the use of technology in our professional and personal lives.
Learning Objectives:
Given some of the possible uses of technology in practice, identify and process the benefits, risks, and ethical considerations involved in using search engines (Google, Yahoo!, Bing, Ask), social networking sites (Facebook, MySpace, Twitter, Bebo), cell and smart phones (iPhone, Blackberry, DROID), blogs/chat rooms, Email, and video sharing sites (YouTube, Vimeo, dotSUB).
Given a variety of ethical dilemmas, as they relate to the use of technology in practice, utilize an ethical decision-making model to assess situations and determine appropriate courses of action that are grounded in the Code of Ethics of the National Association of Social Workers and the Wisconsin Code of Conduct.
Given opportunities throughout the training to self-assess and reflect as it relates to one’s use of technology in both professional and personal life, determine if this use is in line with professional standards and what this may mean for your work.
