Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This handbook addresses the current state and practice of school psychology with a focus on standards unique to Australia, including historical, legal, ethical, practical, and training factors. It provides a compilation of the most current research-based practices as well as guidelines for evidence-based assessment and intervention for common conditions (e.g., autism, depression, learning disabilities) and for delivering appropriate services to targeted student populations (e.g., LGBT, gifted, medical issues). Chapters discuss the application of national and international school psychology practices within the Australian educational and psychological structure. The handbook also examines the lack of formal resources specific to Australia’s culture and psychology systems, with its unique mix of metropolitan cities and the vast geographic landscape that spans regional and remote areas. It offers numerous case studies and innovative school mental health programs as well as recommendations for professional development and advocacy that are unique to Australian school psychology. Topics featured in this Handbook include: Evidence-based assessment and intervention for dyscalculia and mathematical disabilities. Identification and management of adolescent risk-taking behaviors and addictions. Understanding and responding to crisis and trauma in the school setting. Prevention and intervention for bullying in schools. Class and school-wide approaches to addressing behavioral and academic needs. The role of school psychologists in the digital age. Practical advice for school psychologists facing complex ethical dilemmas. The Handbook of Australian School Psychology is a must-have resource for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students in child and school psychology, social work, and related fields that address mental health services for children and adolescents.

Download or read book Gippsland Mental Health Vacation School written by Keith Paul Sutton and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 437 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The mal-distribution of health practitioners across urban and rural areas in Australia, Canada and the USA is well documented. Despite disparities across all health disciplines, research and policy addressing rural disadvantage have principally focused upon the medical profession. There is limited rural allied health workforce research and even less into the mental health professions. Emerging strong evidence from medicine to redress the urban-rural imbalance suggests that the probability of rural practice post-registration increases through: selection of students from rural backgrounds and/or having rural practice intent, and exposure of pre-registration students to rural life and practice through a mix of rural health training modules and extended clinical placements. Even though evidence regarding rural background may be generalizable to nursing, there is scant evidence that any of the above factors pertain to either allied health or mental health practitioners. Furthermore, evidence regarding the efficacy of interventions designed to address rural mental health workforce shortages is lacking. Therefore, the three primary aims of the thesis were: 1) identify mental health workforce recruitment and retention issues and solutions in rural Gippsland; 2) investigate the impact of one strategy: a brief mental health workforce recruitment intervention that addresses recruitment challenges in Gippsland; 3) examine how to establish a sustainable recruitment intervention for the sector. Three separate data collections were carried out to achieve each of these research aims: 1. Qualitative data was collected from 24 senior personnel from Gippsland mental health services. Thematic analysis identified issues and solutions to mental health workforce challenges in Gippsland. 2. Quantitative and qualitative data were collected from 76 students who attended five Gippsland Mental Health Vacation Schools from 2010 to 2014. Multivariate statistics and content analysis explored the immediate and longer term impact of the Vacation School experience upon students' interest in and attitudes towards living and working in a rural setting. 3. 18 students and 9 regional mental health service staff who participated in Vacation Schools contributed as 'experts' in a three-stage Delphi Study, designed to inform the long term sustainability of the intervention.Findings from Research Aim 1 led to the development and implementation of the Gippsland Mental Health Vacation School. This brief and inexpensive intervention addresses: a) the lack of training for mental health professionals in Gippsland; and b) the limited regional pool of potential mental health workers. Findings from Research Aim 2 indicate that this annual 5 day program positively impacted upon students' interest in and attitudes towards both rural living and rural mental health work. These immediate positive changes weakened in the six months following the program; however, the level of interest in rural work diminished less compared to the decline in interest in rural life. This weakening of interest was then used to inform a Delphi study undertaken in pursuit of Research Aim 3. The findings of which suggested: 1) that Vacation School student engagement could be maintained through the use of social media to promote employment opportunities to participants in the months following the program; and 2) transitioning to a blended learning approach to delivery of the program. The findings of the thesis have important implications for mental health workforce policy, specifically the promotion of rural practice and collaborative development of tailored strategies to address local rural practitioner shortages.

This book was released on 2015 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (2008) is a global effort to promote the equal and active participation of all people with disability. Australia ratified this convention, which means that it is committed to promoting, protecting, and ensuring that people with disability are given full equality under the law. The process of personalised learning and support is in line with the Convention, and aims to ensure that effective personalised support measures are provided in learning environments that maximise academic and social development, consistent with the Convention's goal of full inclusion. Personalised learning requires attention to the unique needs of all students of all abilities, acknowledging that each have different learning needs. This is particularly relevant for students with disability and additional learning needs. In addressing personalised learning and support, a process can be followed which involves the student's support networks, and which aims to build on the student's strengths. This resource provides guidance around personalised learning and support for students with disability. Contains a list of resources for parents and educators.
