Computer Simulation and Social Work Education: A Suitable Case

Abstract

Despite the sophisticated advance of computer technology, social workers display little interest in grasping its positive aspects or examining the negative elements. Yet developments in computer techniques can enable us to examine the social work process or simulate experimental situations. In educational terms, with the advent of a computer program which is able to simulate the elements of social work case situations, a new teaching aid is available. This paper describes the development of a simple computerised social work case simulation exercise to introduce beginning social work students to some practice strategies.
