Teens and Young Adults Who Drink Alone at Higher Risk of Later Alcohol Use Disorder
Module 7: Alcohol (Part 2) – Journal
Journal: Critique a News Brief and grade weight table
You will keep a regular journal throughout much of the course. In each module, you will submit a two-page journal report on a current addiction-related news brief. The journal entries should be single-spaced with one inch margins and no larger than 12-point type. On the first page, you should paste a copy of the news brief you are using for your analysis. The second full page should contain your detailed, critical analysis of the issues in the brief.

Your journal entries should be thoughtful critiques of the briefs and their application to social work practice. Each critique should address the following prompts:
What is the relevant issue(s) for social work?
Why is this issue(s) relevant?
Using examples from your work, practicum, or life experience, what are the implications of this issue(s) for particular client groups?
