This book was released on 2010 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current research is limited concerning the alignment of the perceived role of high school counselors among stakeholders. This quantitative methods study found both convergent and divergent themes surrounding high school counselors' roles and how others perceive their roles. Counselor job descriptions were not well aligned with American School Counselor Association recommendations. Differences between grades and school as well as gender and ethnic differences were found. Counselors adapted to requirements of the local site and culture, which tended to drive the importance of certain duties over others. Recommendations were made for clearer role definition from professional organizations and identification of stakeholder perceptions that would allow counselors to develop more effective relationships and meet needs for counseling services within stakeholder expectations as well as counselor-identified need areas. Factor analysis found seven latent variables that counselors seem to focus on according to the importance ratings of stakeholders were: 1) College, career, and class planning; 2) School programs and communication; 3) Student personal issues; 4) Working with staff; 5) Student learning; 6) Technician, teaching, and supervision; and 7) Rules, regulations, and discipline. Supporting research includes an analysis of district and school site job descriptions; differences in overall group perceptions of students, parents, teachers, and counselors; and an analysis of demographic differences in the interpretation of counselors' roles. Results also include a convergence of the lowest mean difference in areas where the professional identity of high school counselors align with serving the academic needs of students to be best prepared for postsecondary experiences such as employment and/or acceptance to college. A clearer consensus of the role of counselors, one that aligns with recommendations from a counselors' professional organizations, such as the American School Counselor Association (ASCA), and with job descriptions by school boards, may allow counselors to better serve students, parents, and teachers. By identifying the stakeholder perceptions on the frequency and importance of counselor roles, high school counseling teams can move towards such an alignment in order to be more effective in providing counseling services.

Book excerpt: The roles and responsibilities of school counselors across the United States are often misinterpreted amongst various stakeholders, individual state requirements for educational initiatives, and often among practicing counselors' own perceptions and view of professional identity. While the American School Counselor Association (ASCA, 2003; 2005) strives to provide ethical standards and practices to solidify the professional identity of school counselors and acquire the qualifications and skills to address all students' academic, personal/social and career development needs, a clear defined definition and perception of the school counselor continues to become solidified. Perhaps this is due to the changing educational horizon, communities, administration, and federal influences of policies and procedures on schools and school districts (Bain, 2012). Whatever the reason, school counselors are faced with a myriad of challenges that make it difficult in today's educational society to adhere to the social/emotional, post-secondary/career, and academic needs of all students. The American School Counselor Association (ASCA, 2003;2005) has developed the ASCA National Model: A Framework for School Counseling Programs which establishes a structure for effective school counseling programs; however, school counseling programs, credentials, and educational initiatives can be different from state to state. This study examined high school counselors (9th-12th grade) in Pennsylvania, suburban, public high Schools, specifically in Bucks and Montgomery Counties. A quasi-mixed methods, exploratory research approach was used. Nonparametric statistics were run to determine if a significant impact of demographic variables yielded a difference in school counselors' self-efficacy. Additionally, school counselors were randomly selected to participate in semi-structured, open-ended interviews, examining high school counselors' perceptions and self-efficacy regarding their roles and responsibilities pertaining to students' mental health issues. Results indicated that gender, one's undergraduate degree of education, and years of experience have significant impact on school counselors' self-efficacy, specifically related to certain items on the Counselor Activity Self-Efficacy Scales (Lent, et al., 2003). After content analysis coding, it was also found that school counselors feel high efficacy beliefs associated with specific roles and responsibilities and that self-efficacy beliefs change if counselors perceive a lack of stakeholder support or do not feel they are valued. Some implications for future research might be a longitudinal study of school counselors' self-efficacy over a given period of time and a larger sample size. It might also be helpful to combine elements of the CASES Scales with other school counselor based scales to form a more unified measurement that speaks to school counselors' roles and responsibilities that have been identified within this study and expand to specific mental health diagnosis, disorders, and behaviors. KEY WORDS: School Counseling, Communication, Educational Psychology.

Download or read book The Role Guidance Counselors Play in Preparing Urban and Suburban High School Students for Post secondary Education written by Regina L. Robinson and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 162 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the efforts of urban and suburban high schools to break down barriers that exist in preparing students for post-secondary education, there is still progress to be made. Urban school counselors face barriers that do not exist in suburban schools in terms of the availability of resources, funding, economic status, social class, and ethnicity. In 2001, American School Counseling Association (ASCA) adopted the National Model for School Counseling to provide counselors with a framework for building, implementing, and evaluating school counseling programs. This thesis will analyze the differences in access to, and quality of, student counseling in urban and suburban schools, and the effects on student achievement in preparation for post-secondary education by comparing four high schools in Urban Baltimore City with four high schools in Suburban Baltimore County. The history, background and data will show that differences within urban and suburban educational systems exist when preparing students for academic achievement. The purpose of this study is to explore the role of high school counselors in increasing student access.
