Some findings were counter-intuitive. What choices would allow for the modeling of complex systems, such as legal and economic systems?

Employing Empathy: Using Video Simulations As An Intervention To Educate Social Work Students, Charles Adam Laffiteau
Employing Empathy: Using Video Simulations As An Intervention To Educate Social Work Students, Charles Adam Laffiteau
Graduate Theses and Dissertations
A video simulation featuring a Master of Social Work (MSW) student assessing a fictional client, portrayed by a professionally trained student actor, dealing with suicidal ideations was developed to model empathetic and reflective techniques.

Combining social learning theory and constructivism allows Bachelor of Social Work (BSW) students to observe and analyze the …
