Experiences of Canadian Distance Education Social Work Students with Mental Health (dis)Abilities

Rose Singh
Masters of Social Work
Dalhousie University

This workshop highlights findings from my thesis research, on the experiences of Canadian distance education social work students with mental health (dis)Abilities. Six study participants from two Canadian universities shared multifaceted experiences of adapting, coping, and navigating through their online courses and programs. Participants also shared suggestions on how their institutions could be more supportive. In this workshop, we will reflect upon and discuss how distance education programs could become more accessible and inclusive for post-secondary students living with mental health (dis)Abilities.
