Описание: Peer support and social relationships have a tremendous influence on development, motivation, and achievement for all students, including struggling learners and those with disabilities. This highly practical book is one of the few resources available to guide classroom teachers and special educators in the application of peer-assisted instructional strategies in grades K-12. Expert contributors describe evidence-based approaches for building students' skills in reading, writing, math, and other content areas, as well as social competence and executive functioning. Sample lessons and more than a dozen reproducible tools are provided. Purchasers get access to a Web page where they can download and print the reproducible materials.
Research on the academic and social impairments related to disruptive behavior disorders, such as Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD), suggests that youth with these disorders are at unusually high risk for school failure, school dropout, significant behavior problems, social rejection, and alcohol/substance abuse and dependence when compared to their peers. Clearly, effective interventions for this population are essential. However, research also suggests that due in part to deficits in executive functioning (e.g., memory, organization, planning), youth with disruptive behavior disorders are unlikely to benefit from interventions drawing strictly from cognitive or insight-based therapies. Therefore, the literature regarding counseling and therapy for adolescents seems to divide along two general lines: 1) a rich and growing counseling literature on internalizing disorders (e.g., CBT for social anxiety) and transition planning (e.g., college and career counseling), and 2) an equivocal counseling literature on externalizing disorders, where theory, research, and practice are rarely integrated.
The proposed book bridges the gaps in the literature by integrating research and practice specific to the difficulties experienced by adolescents with disruptive behavior disorders. Much of our discussion will be based on our research of the Challenging Horizons Program and the High School Treatment Development Project conducted at James Madison University. During the course of these studies, graduate and undergraduate students have been trained to build alliances with adolescents, their teachers, and their families for the purpose of implementing evidence-based interventions. Counseling Adolescents with Disruptive Behavior Disorders describes this process in detail--drawing directly from the research and the relevant literature--with a focus on how this research can inform practice.
This therapeutic approach is best described as "solution-focused" because it uses a trans-theoretical model, similar to that advocated by Steve de Shazer, John J. Murphy, and others. Counseling Adolescents with Disruptive Behavior Disorders builds on this tradition by describing how these concepts and techniques can be applied to youth with disruptive behaviors, while providing the reader with specific intervention ideas, troubleshooting strategies, and research findings from these studies and others.

Описание: Many students today struggle with stress and anxiety caused by increasing academic, social, and extracurricular demands. This book provides school psychologists, counselors, teachers, and other school faculty with guidelines for improving students amp rsquo mental and physical well?being, which in turn leads to improved academic performance and happier, better-adjusted students. Chapter authors review important considerations related to the benefits, limitations, and potential risks associated with implementing mind amp ndash body interventions in school settings. In addition to general guidelines, they review specific practices in depth-including yoga, mindfulness, physical activity, and hypnosis-presenting a three-tiered model for delivering services universally, with targeted groups, and with individuals. They also discuss how these and other interventions can be used to target specific issues such as eating disorders, chronic pain, sleep disorders, and trauma. Illustrative case studies demonstrate how to implement these interventions in realistic scenarios. Collaboration between mental health professionals, faculty, and parents is emphasized throughout the volume so that students amp rsquo mind amp ndash body health is addressed both at school and at home.

We are living in a time of increasingly active student voices. Students arrange protests, form societies to further their causes, develop messages, and fight to change laws they find unjust. As educators, our place in these movements is one of support. How can we help prepare young people to cope with the enormous responsibility that comes with taking on essential roles in social movements, spanning from #marchforourlives to environmental reform? How can schools better teach students to be civil and live with integrity?
Daniel R. Venables has been teaching in classrooms for more than 20 years, and has coached educators in hundreds of schools. What he's found is that classroom time is so overburdened in meeting curriculum standards, there is little space for students to develop the key citizenry skills they need to succeed with decency. . . and most schools cannot live up to the mission statements they post in the front office.
Student-Run Honor Councils are the most effective way to change that. This book will guide you through the why, what, and how of developing a Student-Run Honor Council in your school, coming from someone who helped his students build their own council from the ground up. There's no better way to help kids grow into people living with deliberate honor.
