Abstract

This paper explores social work students' perspectives of online fieldwork practice that emerged due to sudden disruption in field placement as a result of the outbreak of COVID-19 in India. We have recruited and interviewed 32 Master's students from five north-Indian universities to participate in the research. The study's findings highlight ill-equipped agencies lacking social work components in online/virtual field placement. Also, ethical dilemmas in working virtually, disconnectedness from the field, and superficial supervision were experienced by the students. The study result implies the urgent need to develop and innovate a pedagogical approach to deal with uncertainties and crises like the COVID-19.

“既没有社会工作成分，也没有体验”:学生对印度COVID-19期间在线实地实习的看法

本文探讨了社会工作专业学生对在线实地工作实践的看法，这些实践是由于印度COVID-19爆发导致实地安置突然中断而出现的。我们从印度北部的5所大学招募并采访了32名硕士生参与研究。该研究的发现突出了在在线/虚拟现场安置中缺乏社会工作组件的设备不完善的机构。此外，学生们还经历了虚拟工作中的道德困境，与现场脱节，以及肤浅的监督。研究结果表明，迫切需要开发和创新一种教学方法，以应对COVID-19等不确定性和危机。

期刊介绍： There is a growing recognition that major social trends, such as the process of globalization, rapidly changing demography, increasing psycho-social difficulties in individuals and families, growing economic disparities within and between the nations, and international migration, present important challenges for social policies and social work practices in Asia. It also has become evident that social policy strategies and social work methods must be developed and implemented in the context of Asian region''s own histories, cultures, and unique developmental trajectories in order to respond effectively to those emerging challenges. The Asian Social Work and Policy Review seeks to encourage exchanges of original ideas, rigorous analysis of experiences, innovative practice methods founded on local knowledge and skills of problem solving in the areas of social work and social policy between various countries in Asia.
