ABSTRACT

Teaching and learning during disasters presents challenges and opportunities. The COVID-19 pandemic and concomitant social and economic devastation altered almost every aspect of daily life. Subsequent police brutality, racial injustice, and environmental disasters disproportionately affected historically marginalized communities. Within this context, we, as faculty teaching in a graduate clinical social work program with a specialization in trauma, critically appraised and adapted our teaching to a synchronous online format. We integrated critical elements of trauma-informed and culturally responsive teaching in the development of a pedagogical model. In this article, we present a Trauma Informed and Culturally Responsive pedagogy, and describe relevant teaching principles, concepts, and strategies. We offer lessons learned and provide recommendations for social work education.

摘要

灾害期间的教学和学习带来了挑战和机遇。COVID-19 大流行以及随之而来的社会和经济破坏几乎改变了日常生活的方方面面。随后的警察暴行、种族不公正和环境灾难对历史上被边缘化的社区造成了不成比例的影响。在这种情况下，我们作为一名在创伤专业的研究生临床社会工作项目中任教的教师，批判性地评估了我们的教学并将其调整为同步在线格式。我们在教学模式的开发中整合了创伤知情和文化响应教学的关键要素。在本文中，我们提出了一种创伤知情和文化响应式教学法，并描述了相关的教学原则、概念和策略。
