Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This monograph describes the theory and practice of the invitational learning model as it applies to school counseling and development. Invitational learning is a paradigm for personal and professional functioning, and for organizational restructuring, based on four values regarding the nature of people and their potential and the nature of professional helping: respect, trust, optimism, and intentionality. Part I of the book develops the theory of invitational learning in five chapters which: define invitational learning (chapter 1); discuss foundations of invitational learning (chapter 2); identify four levels of functioning (chapter 3); explore the five "powerful P's" of places, policies, programs, processes, and people (chapter 4); and explain the "Four Corner Press" of being personally and professionally inviting with oneself and others (chapter 5). Part II surveys the practice of invitational learning through seven essays by separate authors describing their experience in institutions or programs that employ the invitational learning model: (1) "The Baltimore County Guidance and Counseling Experience" (Donald E. McBrien); (2) "The Furman University Center for Excellence Experience" (Judy Lehr); (3) "The East Davidson High School Experience" (Debbie Chance); (4) "The Kansas Elementary School Curriculum Experience" (John H. Wilson); (5) "The Affton School District Experience" (Gary C. Benedict); (6) "The University of South Carolina Adjunct Instructor Experience" (Cheryl French Stehle); and (7) "The Sugar Loaf School Experience" (Joel Blackburn). Forty-eight references are included, and the inviting school checklist is appended, along with an Honor Roll of inviting schools. (TE)

Download or read book Becoming an Invitational Leader written by William Watson Purkey and published by Humanix Books. This book was released on 2003 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Invitational Leadership is a fresh and innovative model based on a single theoretical framework. The model shifts from emphasizing control and dominance to one that focuses on connectedness, cooperation, and communication. Based on sound philosophical and psychological assumptions, Invitational Leadership has been tested and successfully applied by leaders in numerous fields, including administration, business, nursing, dentistry, counseling, and other professions. Invitational Leadership is the basis for the International Alliance for Invitational Education, a network of over a thousand professionals from all 50 states as well as Great Britain, Canada, China, South Africa, and countries throughout Central and South America. William Purkey and Betty Siegel have written much more than a guidebook to becoming a healthier and more effective leader; they proffer a radically profound, compelling argument that it is time for people in positions of authority to forge a new kind of relationship with others based on dialogue, respect and collaboration. This insightful work is long overdue in an age of “might makes right,” and contains great wisdom in promoting solid values found in various democratic and spiritual organizations. Supervisors and coaches, CEO’s and shop stewards, managers and parents—anyone and everyone who deals with others, take notice. This is a truly inspirational book in its invitation for all people to join together in a shared vision of promise and greatness.

Download or read book Counseling and Guidance in the Schools written by Garry Richard Walz and published by NEA Professional Library. This book was released on 1992 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes three guidance programs which have a solid conceptual foundation and have been field validated through extensive and successful use in school programs across the country. The first chapter presents "The Comprehensive Guidance Program Model" by Norman C. Gysbers. This guidance program model reintegrates guidance into the curriculum and redefines the counselor's role and duties in the context of the overall guidance program. This program aims to set up a guidance curriculum to integrate the work of school counselors into the educational mainstream. The second chapter presents "The Teacher Advisor Program" by Robert D. Myrick and Linda S. Myrick. The assumption behind this program is that each student needs a friendly adult in the school who knows and cares about him or her in a personal way. The advisors help their advisees deal with the problems of growing up and getting the most out of school. The third chapter presents "Invitational Learning for Counseling and Development" by William W. Purkey and John J. Schmidt. This program seeks to redress the forbidding school climate by reconstituting the entire school (people, places, policies, programs, and processes) so that every aspect serves to "invite" students to learn by respecting them encouraging them, and validating their unique importance and possibilities. The fourth chapter "Putting It All Together" by Garry R. Walz summarizes the three programs and focuses on their combined use. The three monographs which are devoted to each of these approaches are cited in the bibliography. (ABL)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book argues that democratic classroom management is not a stand-alone issue but is deeply intertwined with classroom climate and requires a thoughtful, grounded understanding of classroom authority. Contributors explore the sources, nature, and extent of teacher authority, as they distinguish authority from authoritarianism, and describe how classroom authority is ultimately a shared endeavor between teachers and students. By drawing on a variety of contexts and perspectives, chapters in this volume contend with the complexities inherent in classroom authority through the lenses of gender, urban versus rural contexts, and within elementary and secondary classrooms.

This book was released on 2006 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Social and Cultural Foundations of Counseling and Human Services addresses the fundamental social and cultural foundations upon which counselors and other helpers develop the knowledge and skill to work effectively with diverse populations.

Highlights of the First Edition: Maintains a balanced perspective on the impact of individualistic and collectivistic philosophies on a person's development. Utilizes a thorough treatment of social status variables that influence self-concept development, including race, ethnicity, sex, gender, sexual orientation identity, family, aging, spirituality, physical ability and disability, and social class.
