Patrick Johnson  Cassandra N. Nichols  Walter C. Buboltz  Brian Riedesel 《Journal of College Counseling》2002,5(1):4-14

To assess the impact of a holistic career and life planning course on college students, the authors asked 209 students in treatment and control groups to complete measures of career development. Results indicate that the course significantly increases vocational identity and career decision‐making self‐efficacy and decreases career indecision.  相似文献

The Skilled Counselor Training Model: Skills Acquisition,Self‐Assessment,and Cognitive Complexity     

Cassandra Little  Jill Packman  Marlowe H. Smaby  Cleborne D. Maddux 《Counselor Education & Supervision》2005,44(3):189-200

The authors evaluated the effectiveness of the Skilled Counselor Training Model (SCTM; M. H. Smaby, C. D. Maddux, E. Torres‐Rivera, & R. Zimmick, 1999) in teaching counseling skills and in fostering counselor cognitive complexity. Counselor trainees who completed the SCTM had better counseling skills and higher levels of cognitive complexity than did counselor trainees who did not receive the training. Before training, both experimental and control group participants overestimated their skills performance. The control group persisted in this overestimation after training, whereas students who completed the SCTM had a much more accurate self‐assessment. Results suggest that skills‐based training may improve counseling skills and cognitive complexity in counselor trainees.  相似文献   

Problems in Classroom Engagement: Validation of an Assessment for District-Wide Use in the Early Primary Grades

Research Findings: The aim of this study was to provide an initial investigation into the psychometric properties of the Problems in Classroom Engagement Scale (PCES). The PCES was designed and tested for district-wide use as part of the report card system for a large urban school district. The PCES was administered to all 1st-, 2nd-, and 3rd-grade students in the district. Factor analytic examination revealed a bifactor structure as the best fit to the data. The bifactor structure reflected a general factor of Problems in Behavioral Engagement and two group factors: Problems in Social Engagement and Problems in Academic Engagement. These factors were found to be reliable within and across grades and demonstrated convergent and divergent relations with academic and behavioral outcomes. Practice or Policy: Findings provide initial evidence to support the routine use of the PCES in a large urban setting. The use of the PCES can help in fostering district-wide attention to students’ early difficulties with behavioral, social, and academic engagement.  相似文献   

Can districts keep good teachers in the schools that need them most?     

Cassandra M. Guarino  Abigail B. Brown  Adam E. Wyse 《Economics of Education Review》2011,30(5):962-979

This study investigates how school demographics and their interactions with policies affect the mobility behaviors of public school teachers with various human capital characteristics. Using data from North Carolina from 1995 to 2006, it finds that teachers’ career stage and human capital investments dominate their decisions to leave public school teaching and school demographic characteristics play a dominant role in intra-system sorting. Schools serving at-risk children struggle to attract and retain teachers with desirable observable characteristics. We find evidence to suggest that across-the-board school-based pay-for-performance policies have small but significant associations with mobility decisions and appear to exacerbate inequities in the distribution of teacher qualifications.  相似文献

LIBERATING THE ENLIGHTENMENT: HOW A TRANSFORMED RELATIONSHIP WITH ANIMALS CAN HELP US TRANSCEND MODERNITY     

Cassandra D. Williams 《Religious education (Chicago, Ill.)》2013,108(1):95-107

Abstract The Enlightenment rejection of the Cartesian mechanistic understanding of animals was accompanied by a (re)new(ed) anticruelty sentiment. Compassion, however, fell victim to the triumph of reason leading Western culture toward an era of cruelty to animals on an unprecedented scale. What was absent in Enlightenment thought, even among proponents of humane treatment of animals, was a fundamental change in understanding of the relationship between human and other-than-human creatures. A new understanding of animals, as exemplified in Andrew Linzey s animal theology has the potential not only to liberate animals from cruel oppression, but to emancipate Western thought from the idols of modernity.  相似文献
