Abstract
The Editors are delighted to introduce this Special Issue of Social Sciences, which focuses on the application of technology and digital interventions in social work and community welfare teaching. The field of social work education and practice is being reshaped by technological innovation, demanding detailed consideration of how we prepare the next generation of practitioners. As social work represents a relational practice focused on human interactions, social workers and social work educators may be reluctant to utilise technology in their work; however, technological innovation has become essential in contemporary professional environments. Hence, this Special Issue explores the challenges, opportunities, benefits, and ethical considerations encountered in social work education, along with the implications of digitisation for preparing graduates for changes in social work practice.
