Virtual reality (VR) can provide students ancillary ways to develop social work practice skills. It is incumbent for schools of social work to critically examine the lessons learned in producing previous VR simulations by carefully integrating principles of pedagogy and by utilizing research methods to chart the path forward for effective teaching and learning. This work-in-progress paper aims to briefly describe the steps taken to create one VR tool for a school of social work that was developed by heeding lessons from the past, while being responsive to developing students’ skills for a productive future in clinical engagement.
