Abstract

This article describes the innovative use of interactive television (ITV) to team teach an introductory social work course between an accredited BSW program at a four-year university and a community college. The project's goals were to (1) enhance students' use of learning technologies, (2) strengthen the linkage between the institutions and the suburban and urban communities, (3) increase student interaction with diverse groups and communities, and (4) support community college students in their plans to matriculate to a four-year institution. Statistically significant findings were obtained with respect to students' use of technology, willingness to interact with other diverse groups, and intentions to progress into a BSW program. Other positive outcomes are also described, such the benefits of this project as a recruiting tool for the BSW program.
