      ab: This article describes the design, implementation and evaluation of a class session aimed at increasing the comfort and competence of students with computer-based client and task groups. The session was centred on a simulation of a computer group, supplemented with lecture, class discussion and readings. Most social workers believe that education and technology should be part of the curriculum. Social work educators are in a unique position to present computer technology as a feasible medium for practice. Although most social work students are familiar with electronic mail and many students are introduced to computer technology through research classes there are few reports in the literature of efforts to increase comfort with and knowledge of computer applications, especially in direct services to clients. To facilitate student understanding of group work practice principles within a cyberspace environment within a semester long group work course to enhance students comfort and knowledge-base in online group practice.
