Featuring chapters written by a diverse group of social work professionals, Rethinking Social Work Education in Light of the COVID-19 Pandemic: Lessons Learned from Social Work Scholars and Leaders explores the profound effects of the pandemic on social work education.
The book recognizes the pandemic took an emotional, cognitive, and physical toll on those in the academy, which also affected students' ability to learn and instructors' ability to teach. Each chapter explores students' and instructors' experiences throughout the pandemic and showcases the creative ways in which educators in the U.S., Canada, and Israel developed projects, classes, and innovative field experiences to support students while teaching remotely.
The first section of the book recounts educators' experiences teaching during the pandemic with emphasis on overcoming challenges in the new virtual classroom and innovative redesign of curriculum. The second section examines how theoretical and experimental social work classes were affected during the pandemic. The final section considers the creation of new programs to meet the needs of students and instructors in a post-pandemic era.
Rethinking Social Work Education in Light of the COVID-19 Pandemic is an exemplary resource for courses and programs in social work education and administration.
