Abstract
ABSTRACTThis teaching note describes one example of a shift from content to competence in a graduate MSW course teaching advanced mindfulness complex practice behaviors and skills for use in direct practice. The development of advanced mindfulness competencies and skills provides a conceptual base o shift teaching from lengthy lectures to experiential learning. Simulation-based learning and aspects of the objective standard clinical examination adapted for social work are used as a base for a summative evaluation in which students demonstrate their skill level through interviews with simulated clients. The final assignment, a transcription and analysis of segments of the interview demonstrating the advanced complex practice behaviors, is discussed in individual student–instructor interviews. Opportunities, challenges, and implications for social work education are presented.
