Get ready for the most exciting recorded lecture you have seen since COVID!!!

The University of Memphis Social Work Symposium will host the premiere of “What if we all focused on Membership?? A Social Work Tutorial on Dr. Hans Falck’s Membership Perspective in the age of COVID, featuring Quarantine Not Quarantined by Graduates Rise”

Come help us break down the binary!!

This session will first share a recorded lecture designed as part of an edutainment module to help participants think about their role as a member of the human race, and then there will be an open discussion with its creator, Dr. CynCorrigible. This session is for social workers and social science practitioners in general that want to push beyond the traditional binary relationship between individual and collective. “What if we all focused on Membership?? A Social Work Tutorial on Dr. Hans Falck’s Membership Perspective in the age of COVID, featuring Quarantine Not Quarantined by Graduate Rise” is an edutainment module that consists of a recorded lecture that is approximately 45 minutes long and is available for free on YouTube, and an accompanying Learning Guide, also available for free as a PDF on the Graduates Rise website at www.GraduatesRise.com. Falck’s Membership Perspective serves as a holistic approach to understanding individualism and collectivism through membership, with membership being the irreducible state of human existence.  Quarantine Not Quarantined is a punk song and music video written by Dr. CynCorrigible and their band inspired by The Membership Perspective and thinking about how it might change COVID response by humans. The Learning Guide contains assignment prompts Instructors may choose to add to their syllabi, with options for synchronous and asynchronous courses. Learning objectives are designed to assess holistic competence as aligned with the Council on Social Work Education’s Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (CSWE EPAS). There are assignment prompts for simulated practice aligned with each of the nine social work competencies, so this content may be relevant to add into any core social work courses. Assignments seek to help students better understand the core concepts of the Membership Perspective and how it might alter social work practice.
