José Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-6592-574X Role-playing as a method for the improvement of ethical competences in social work: a case study 2025 Role-playing is an active learning methodology that is increasingly playing a central role in the educational process: in our case, in the subject of Ethics Applied to Social Work. We present research based on a case study that applied role-playing as a methodology to improve the ethical competences of students. With a sample of 99 students, we conducted a pre-test and post-test evaluation of the effects of using the Attitudes Toward Professional Ethics scale. We conclude that role-playing significantly increases professional ethical competence in the area of social work. This research highlights several positive aspects of active methodologies such as this one, particularly their pedagogical application in social work training and the improvement of transversal competences such as ethical competence. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/ES/UZ/PIIDUZ-1-347 info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccess All rights reserved http://www.europeana.eu/rights/rr-f/ 0.664 2024 Social Sciences (miscellaneous) 2024 Q1 Social Work 2024 Q2 Education 2024 Q2 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Lozano, Raquel Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-0100-1449 Mira-Aladrén, Marta Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-6088-0324 Valero, Diana Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0002-3252-076X 4009 735 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
