Due to COVID 19, Monash University's Social Work Department moved all clinical practice skills teaching in the Master of Social Work (graduate entry level) fully online using synchronous audio-visual conferencing platform Zoom for the first time from March to June 2020. The innovations associated with this move included the development of clinical practice laboratories (CPLs) to prepare 154 students for a modified version of an Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCE) and their first field education practicum. The use of simulated clients to facilitate experiential learning of active listening skills, rapport-building and empathic communication in this mode of delivery is described in detail to encourage overcoming previous issues in teaching clinical practice skills to students located at a distance from campus.
由于新冠疫情,莫纳什大学社会工作系于2020年3月至6月首次使用同步视听会议平台Zoom,将社会工作硕士(研究生入学水平)的所有临床实践技能教学完全转移到线上。与这一举措相关的创新包括开发临床实践实验室(CPL),为154名学生准备客观结构化临床考试(OSCE)的修改版以及他们的首次实地教育实习。详细描述了如何使用模拟客户来促进在这种教学模式下积极倾听技能、建立融洽关系和共情沟通的体验式学习,以鼓励克服以往在向远离校园的学生教授临床实践技能方面存在的问题。
