Introduction

This chapter provides an overview of the entire book, which is a handbook of creative teaching and learning activities and assignments for instructors and doctoral students. Each activity and/or assignment centers on an aspect of social work’s explicit curriculum (e.g., research methods) and/or implicit curriculum (e.g., diversity, equity). Other chapters provide methods to address aspects of practice that may be incorporated into various required courses or the focus of an elective (e.g., LGBTQI+ affirmative practice, environmental justice).
