Download or read book Student Perceptions of the Teacher counselor Role at the Albina Youth Opportunity School written by and published by . This book was released on 1973 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This project is a descriptive study of the Albina Youth Opportunity School of Portland, Oregon. The school is described as one whose primary function is to help disadvantaged students who have extreme social and academic problems. The study focused on the students' perception of their teachers, who are defined by the school as teacher-counselors. Of the seventy full-time students, sixty-five participated in the study, and five refused to do so. The major questions of the study were concerned with the students' assessment of the teacher-counselors characteristics. Main areas for exploration dealt with the students' perception of the role of a teacher-counselor in relation to their specific needs. Factors taken into consideration were sex, age, length of attendance at the school, and the student's belief that the teacher-counselor liked or disliked him. A questionnaire was administered to each student in order to determine his assessment of the teacher-counselor role. Date was analyzed with the help of scale-measured attitudes of variables dealing with teaching and counseling items and tests of significance. Indices were computed from the data. Descriptive statistics included the use of frequency distribution, percentages, means, medians, and correlations. Study findings indicated that some students see the role differently, and some differences were difficult to interpret in terms of specific traits. There were differences in perception associated with the factors of sex, end length of attendance at the school. The findings suggest that the student's belief that the teacher-counselor like or dislike s him or her is associated with perception. They also yield evidence that the students perceive the teacher-counselor concept as a duel role. Implications are that the students who attend this school are being provided learning environment which is helpful to their needs.

Book Teachers  Perceptions of Students  Needs for Family Counseling and Attitudes Toward School based Family Counseling

Download or read book Teachers Perceptions of Students Needs for Family Counseling and Attitudes Toward School based Family Counseling written by Marjorie Star Snyder and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive search of multiple databases for references to the connection between families and schools yields a rich representation from family therapy, school counseling, school psychology, and education literature supporting the idea that schools must serve not only students, but students' families as well. One of the common themes emerging from the literature is that schools must recognize the impact of family systems upon a student's school performance and that many student school problems are related to family dysfunction. The literature suggests that school-based family counseling may be an essential component of family-friendly school services; that is, for the purposes of this dissertation, the provision of formal family counseling in the school setting by the school counselor or school psychologist. However, the literature does not address teachers' attitudes towards school-based family counseling, which seems important given that they are on the front lines of identifying students needing any kind of intervention. This study explores teacher attitudes and characteristics relating to recognizing and identifying students' needs for family counseling and their self-reported likelihood to refer them for school-based family counseling services.

Book Developing  Delivering  and Sustaining School Counseling Practices Through a Culturally Affirming Lens

Download or read book Developing Delivering and Sustaining School Counseling Practices Through a Culturally Affirming Lens written by Brant-Rajahn, Sarah N. and published by IGI Global. This book was released on 2022-05-06 with total page 383 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Systemic oppression continues to disenfranchise students at the intersections of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, immigrant status, religion, ableism, and economic status. Because of this, school counselors are called to function as advocates and change agents, but often find themselves underprepared to address these oppressive systems in schools. It is vital that school counselors are provided resources that enable them to increase their preparedness and allow them to address oppressive practices within schools as well as work with diverse populations using culturally affirming and antiracist practices. Developing, Delivering, and Sustaining School Counseling Practices Through a Culturally Affirming Lens informs culturally affirming and antiracist professional practice and advocacy work by school counselors. It serves as a learning tool that better prepares school counselors to address the needs of marginalized students and work as effective change agents to disrupt systemic oppression in school settings. Covering topics such as professional identity, racial trauma, and social justice, this book serves as a dynamic resource for school counselor educators, school counselors-in-training, school counselors, directors, supervisors, district leaders and administration, researchers, and academicians as they implement antiracist, social justice, and culturally affirming practices in school settings and academia.
