ABSTRACT
The emergence of COVID-19 created significant disruption for MSW students across the United States. This study uses several data for a case study of MSW student attitudes about COVID-19, online instruction, virtual field placement, and innovations during the emergence of COVID-19 in the United States. Data includes qualitative data from weekly student survey responses (n = 75), observation notes from class participation, data from a policy analysis assignment, and COVID-19 online data gathered through a student class assignment. Findings address evolving concerns and roles of MSW students, challenges posed in virtual field placements, and student-identified innovations. I identify five lessons learned from this case study regarding group assignments, context, agency, mental health support, and equity.
