Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents an updated description of The Picture Exchange Communication System (PECS). It begins with a discussion of the "big picture," or the authors view on the importance of laying the foundation for communication training by systematically structuring the learning environment (be it in the home, community or school). This approach, The Pyramid Approach to Education, embraces the principals of broad-spectrum applied behavior analysis and emphasizes the development of functional communication skills, independent of communication modality.

Download or read book Learning Interventions for Consultants written by Manuel London and published by Fundamentals of Consulting Psy. This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Employee development is a driver of economic growth. Employees and organizations are part of what the Danish economist B. A. Lundvall called the learning economy, in which knowledge is the critical resource and the most important process is learning. Today's organizations expect employees to be continuous learners, to maintain and increase their skills and competencies to keep up with the rapid pace of change and competition. This book guides learning consultants in how to design, implement, and support employee development programs. They may work with human resource managers to develop performance management systems that include selection, training, performance appraisal, feedback, and career development. The book is intended for consulting psychologists and those new to consultative roles. It also intends to appeal to nonpsychologists, such as learning consultants, corporate-based facilitators of learning, and others who are interested in specific aspects of training and development. The book comprises of six chapters. Chapter one describes the perspectives that consultants bring to learning interventions. Chapter two focuses on the science of learning, examining seminal theory and research that show the value of learning interventions to individuals, teams, and organizations. Chapter three describes five steps for creating training design and implementation: needs analysis, contracting, design, implementation, and evaluation. Chapter four focuses on the practice of learning, describing learning interventions for adaptive, generative, and transformative learning. Chapter five covers integrating technology into learning interventions. Finally, Chapter six offers recommendations for learning professionals, the challenges they face, and directions for the future."--Preface.

Download or read book Consultants and Consultancy the Case of Education written by Helen M. Gunter and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-02-27 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a comprehensive study into and about consultants doing consultancy, and having influence in ways that generate concerns about an emerging ‘consultocracy’, with privileged access to governments and public services. It presents a detailed mapping of consultants and consultancy in education as a site of change and modernisation in public sector service provision. It considers consultancy at a macro-level of globalised policy, at a meso-level of national government policy, and at a micro level with vivid descriptions and analyses of consultants at work. The rapid rise of ‘edubusinesses’, combined with the restructuring of public services in western style democracies, has generated new types of ‘knowledge actors’ within education policy. Three main developments that have led to this change are: the entry of education policy and service consultants from within major companies into the public education market place; the emergence of ‘celebrity’ entrepreneurial actors and private businesses who make interventions into Universities and schools; and the rapid growth of small businesses based on individuals who have relocated their work from the public to the private sector. Such knowledge actors and the complexities they bring to public education are as yet under described and largely un-theorized. Based on current research and drawing upon a range of theoretical tools, this book fills the gap. Gunter and Mills provide an invaluable contribution to scholarship on the neoliberal restructuring of public education by mapping and analyzing the under-examined yet central role of corporate education consultants. Their thoughtful and thorough discussion expands our understanding of how consultants promote and trade in the ideologies of corporate culture. Gunter and Mills show how consultants are integral to both knowledge making practices in schools and a radical reform agenda for schools in the UK and around the globe. This is an accessible and important volume for not just policy and politics scholars but anyone concerned about defending public forms of education and associated living at a moment when they are increasingly being positioned for pillage by profiteers.
