Abstract
The use of Internet technology in social work education is increasingly being debated. This paper describes applications using two technological tools to enhance one school's field education program. The development and current use of these computer-based strategies for use in the classroom-based Integrative Seminars, as a method to orient students to practicum and to offer an on-line Integrative Seminar, are discussed. Also described is the development of an additional project: the use of video conferencing technology to conduct virtual site visits. Key features, implications for the adoption of this technology in other programs, and student and faculty evaluation data are presented.
