Despite the hundreds of programs in existence for training students in counseling, human services, social work, and psychology, teachers in such programs have relied on an informal network of information exchange to guide their teaching practice. Yet, constructivist and developmental theories now point to sound, innovative practices for teaching. This volume delineates some of those practices. The authors take the position that, despite years of research on effective adult education, university teaching fails, in practice, to incorporate research-supported teaching principles. Current university instruction is still dominated by the teacher-as-authority model,in which he or she downloads information from the front of the class and expects students to regurgitate it in papers and on exams. This book seeks to counter the limitations of these often-unquestioned methods. The social constructionist and constructive developmental paradigms undergird the descriptions of counselor preparation strategies offered in this book. Such strategies are characterized by the themes of meaning-making, collaboration, equality, and activity in the learning environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for those who will educate future counselors and psychotherapists, this book marks out a vision for counselor and psychotherapist training for the postmodern era. The book details specific practices that are grounded in constructivist and developmental principles including approaches to classroom instruction, field supervision, curriculum, admissions, student evaluation, and multicultural awareness. Committed to constructivist and developmental teaching in counselor education, the authors contend that these practices are critical for preparing thoughtful, creative, mental health practitioners. Part one outlines the general constructivist worldview upon which the book is based and offers background on what is known about the psychology of learning. Guidelines for constructivist teaching are explicated from these principles. Part two suggests the application of constructivist principles to the overall design of counselor education programs. The extensive use of democratic groups, cohorts, and narrative-generating activities are considered. Specific attention is given to reconstructing the admissions and evaluation process in a more dialogical, multicultural direction. Part three offers illustrations of counselor education course designs that use constructivist principles. Part four concludes with a discussion of why such programmatic and teaching ideas havent been implemented more frequently, and what it might take to persuade counselor educators to integrate constructivist and developmental thought into their programs. (Contains an index and references at the end of each chapter.) (GCP)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sense of participation and opportunities to share and participate in activities or groups that are important to them are crucial factors in human wellbeing. This book provides a robust empirical and theoretical analysis of reciprocity and its implications for social work and social policy practices by discussing how ideas of reciprocity can be understood and applied to welfare policy and social care practices, as well as how the act of reciprocity supports the wellbeing of citizens. Contributions from Finland, Germany, Russia, the UK, the USA and Canada illuminate the ways in which socio-political contexts influence the power relations between citizens, practitioners and the state, and the potential (or otherwise) for reciprocity to flourish. It will be essential reading for social care practitioners, researchers and educationalists as well as postgraduate students in social work and related social care and community-oriented professions and social policy makers.
