Providing meaningful clinical experiences through a pandemic adds to the challenge. In the midst of a COVID-19 environment, different strategies were implemented through the use of information technology.

Method: A virtual platform was used for student submission and presentation in the pediatrics and behavioral health courses.
Conclusion: A virtual platform is a feasible option and an appropriate strategy for students to reflect and talk about their clinical experiences.
