Abstract
This teaching and learning framework was designed to enable social work students to engage actively with the complexity of ethical reasoning in real-world contexts. The module adopts a scaffolded, experiential learning approach grounded in Universal Design for Learning (UDL) principles and constructivist pedagogy. Students work in small groups through structured weekly exercises that culminate in a Poster Showcase, where they present their ethical analysis to peers.
