Originally proposed by educationist Stephen Brookfield, critical incident technique is an experiential learning method to assist students in turning concrete incidents into new learning. While traditional critical incident pedagogy relies on students' retrospective reflection on the incident, it can be influenced by memory distortions. Simulation-based learning addresses this limitation by offering real-time, immersive opportunities where students engage with trained actors portraying social work clients. These simulations, combined with video recordings, allow students to discuss critical incidents while observing and analyzing their own emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. Through a detailed teaching illustration, we demonstrate how combining simulation with critical incident pedagogy can enhance both the accuracy and depth of student reflections. This integration promotes individual and collective critical reflection, strengthens professional judgment, and fosters a transparent and inclusive learning environment. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
