(2) Does students’ motivation predict engagement and disaffection? (3) Does motivation mediate the influence of teaching styles in students’ engagement and disaffection? A convenience sample of 409 social work undergraduates from Spain (80.9% females) completed a questionnaire with these constructs. Structural equation modeling analyses showed that perceived teaching styles directly only predicted students’ autonomous and controlled motivation. These two modalities of motivation predicted engagement and disaffection and mediated the influence of teaching styles on engagement and disaffection. These findings highlight the need for interventions enhancing teachers’ autonomy-support and structure and reducing control.

Reflections from our team on promising practices for conducting a live-stream OSCE, and insights from the perspectives of simulated clients (n=4), and experienced OSCE raters (n=6) are shared.

The purpose of this article is to (a) describe the seminal literature on academic mentorship, (b) conceptualize exemplar cases of academic mentorship for doctoral education, (c) center the perspectives of doctoral students and their mentorship experiences, (d) use a systems-thinking lens to map and visualize the important variables related to mentorship processes, and (e) hypothesize potential levers for successful mentorship within doctoral programs.

An assessment tool that assesses efficacy across the four domains, specifically related to antiracism, is essential for practice readiness, assessment, and accountability for future professional social workers. This article presents the Social Work Education Anti-Racism Scale to help programs assess their progress toward preparing social work students to become practitioners who embrace antiracism.

Both quantitative and qualitative principles were used to assess and evaluate the process, including survey, observation, and content analysis.

This systematic review and meta-analysis examines the effectiveness of simulated learning in social work education based on outcomes from using either live standardized clients (SCs) or virtual clients (VCs). The study indicates a significant positive effect of simulated learning, regardless of client type (SMD = 0.95; 95% CI = 0.61 to 1.29). Subgroup analyses suggest that such learning is more effective with Masters of Social Work students, when utilizing VCs, for mental health assessment learning, in smaller classes, and in recent studies.
