본 연구는 COVID-19 상황에서 사회복지현장실습에 참여한 사회복지전공 재학생들의 실습 경험에 관한 질적 연구이다. 연구의 의의는 사회복지를 전공하는 재학생들의 실습 전후 사회복지현장실습에 대한 생각의 변화를 탐색하여 위기 상황 속에서 효과적인 사회복지현장실습 매뉴얼을 마련하는데 기초자료를 제시하였다는 것이다. 연구의 결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, COVID-19 상황에서 사회복지현장실습의 어려움으로는 일 학습 병행에 따른 시간조정의 어려움, 감염 우려로 실습 기관의 원활치 않은 실습상황, 제한된 실습 경험과 낮은 질의 수퍼비전, 실습기관의 선정에 대한 어려움, COVID-19 확산으로 인한 실습 중단의 두려움으로 나타났다. 둘째, 사회복지현장실습 후 학생들이 인식한 실습의 긍정적인 경험으로는 사회복지에 대한 전공 본연의 의미를 이해하였고, 사회복지현장실습교육의 필요성에 대한 인식이 높아졌으며, 사회복지현장에서의 인권의 중요성을 깨달았다. 또한 사회복지실천현장은 사회복지사와 클라이언트의 라포형성이 중요하다는 것을 인식하게 되었다.
