new technology in the human services

Boyd, P. (1991). Developing Software for Social Workers. New Technology in the Human Services, 5(4), 25-28.
Abstract: The article addresses the development of computer software programs for social workers. It explores the value of five different software development models for the profession and posits that because of the "individualized" nature of social work practice the development of good software will be expensive. As a consequence software development for the profession will procede at a "snails pace" in comparison to that for other areas of human services.
