Course Philosophy: A professional school counselor is a counselor who works in the schools – not a registrar, not a testing coordinator. Today’s school counselors must be change agents, creative collaborators, and active advocates for students’ healthy academic, career, and personal choices. In addition, professional school counselors must understand the school milieu in order to provide outcomes-based interventions at a whole-building level. The ASCA National Model and the Transforming School Counseling Initiative (TSCI) of the Ed Trust will inform a new vision of school counselors who work to improve students’ lives through empowerment and achievement, and who work to improve schools through systemic leadership.

Learning Objectives:The objectives of the course are to examine:1. The history, philosophy and trends in school counseling (CACREP 2001 School Counseling (SC) A1),

including the relationship of school counseling to the academic and student services program of the school (CACREP 2001 SC A2) through identification of academic, career, and personal/social competencies and the implementation of processes and activities to assist students to achieve these competencies (CACREP SC C1d)

Page 2: 876 Syllabus w 08

EDU PAES 876, Winter 08Pg. 2 of 10

vis-a-vis the role/function of the school counselor coordinated with those of other school professionals (CACREP SC A3, B2; TSCI);

2. The school setting and environment, and pre-K-12 curriculum (CACREP SC A6; TSCI), including the three developmental foundations of academic development, personal/social development, and career development as articulated in the ASCA National Model, integrating the program into the total curriculum, and providing support, information, and training to assist students in maximizing their total development (CACREP SC B3). This is reflected in action planning and time management that are structured on professionally relevant priorities (CACREP SC C1e);

3. The current policies, laws, legislation, ethical and legal issues relevant to school counseling (CACREP SC A7, A11), including the need for continuous professional development and reflection (TSCI);

4. The role of diversity in terms of equity and access issues, development, and learning in schools (CACREP SC A8; TSCI);

5. Community, environmental, and institutional opportunities and barriers that influence student success and development (CACREP SC A9; TSCI), methods of prevention and crisis intervention strategies that create a safe, healthy school climate (CACREP SC B7; TSCI), and referral and advocacy for all children and adolescents (CACREP SC B1; TSCI);

6. Prevention and intervention strategies, consisting of individual and group counseling and classroom developmental curriculum, to address developmental assets, transitions, and negative issues that may effect student development in order to foster school success through holistic development for students (CACREP SC C2a, C2b, C2c, C2d, C2e; TSCI). This includes systems approaches to partnering with persons within the school (teachers, administrators, etc) and with persons outside the school (parents, guardians, community) in order to promote academic success for ALL students (CACREP SC C2f, C2g, C2h; TSCI);

7. Methods of planning, developing, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating a comprehensive school counseling program utilizing technology and holding a systemic view of students (CACREP SC B6; TSCI), to implement and evaluate specific strategies designed to meet program goals and objectives (CACREP SC C1c) in terms of student competencies, and implementation of activities/processes to assist students in the achievement of those competencies (CACREP SC C1d);

8. Leadership and advocacy practices that result in improved overall school environment for students, including the use of research, needs assessments, student data, technology, and institutional assessments for improving comprehensive school counseling programs, recommending systemic changes that will improve learning and development for all students (CACREP SC A4, A10, B2, B4, B10, C1a, C1b, C1g; TSCI);

9. Leadership and advocacy for counseling, students, families, and schools, in collaboration and teaming with teachers, parents, support personnel, and community, to support school counseling and student development (CACREP SC A4, B1; TSCI); planning, presenting, and promoting counseling / educational programs for students, administrators, parents, teachers and the community (CACREP SC B4, B5), including strategies for exploring alternative funding (CACREP SC C1f).

Student Outcomes:Candidates preparing to work as professional counselors must know and demonstrate the content, pedagogical and professional knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary to help all students learn. This course seeks to provide competencies for professional school counselor practice as outlined above, and knowledge and skills will be demonstrated through the following:

Class material and/or lecture and/or outside reading is referenced in each part of question. Thoughtful, reflective; clear evidence of contemplation of question or assignment. On time. Correct grammar, punctuation, spelling. APA format is used correctly. All parts of all questions are addressed completely.

Grading:A = 94+ S = 83-100%A- = 90-93% U = Less than 82%B+ = 87-89%B = 84-86%B- = 80-83%C = 70-79%D = 60-69%F = 59% or less

Professional Development and Identity:As a graduate student in counselor education, you are required to develop competencies in professional skills such as writing, presenting, counseling, and conducting research. The standards for this class are compatible with professional guidelines set forth by the American Counseling Association. Therefore, you will be evaluated on these specified areas as well as other pertinent skills related to mental health or school counseling. As a graduate student at The Ohio State University, you are expected to uphold the highest level of professionalism. Your grade in this course can be negatively impacted by poor academic performance, professional judgment, and professional conduct. The instructor reserves the right to deduct points on any individual assignment and on the final course grade, based on the following: (a) poor collaboration with peers; (b) arriving late to class; (c) missing classes; (d) turning assignments in late; (e) inappropriate or unprofessional class performance; and (f) disrespecting instructors, teaching associates, peers, and/or staff.

Attendance Policies: Learning takes place in conversation with me and with your fellow students. If you are not present, you will not be able to participate in the evening’s conversation. Attendance (physical presence) and attention (no cell phones) will be critical as you attempt to learn all that this class has to offer. It is for this reason that full attendance and full participation only will merit the 10% attendance points. If you are unable to attend the class, you are expected to obtain all the notes for the class from one of your colleagues. Please do not ask me “Did I miss anything important?”, as my reply will always be “Of course you missed something important!” Furthermore, announcements about upcoming assignments will take place in the first 10 minutes of the class. If you are late, you are expected to obtain that information from someone in the class.

Inclement Weather: If the university is officially closed, class will not convene. Log onto the University’s homepage for announcements about the University’s status. For our individual class, the instructor reserves the right to cancel or reschedule the class out of concern for the safety of the students and travel conditions. Please watch your email for messages about our individual class. If you are unable to travel to campus and class is not

Page 7: 876 Syllabus w 08

EDU PAES 876, Winter 08Pg. 7 of 10

cancelled, please email the instructor as soon as possible; you are responsible for obtaining class notes and materials from a colleague in the class.

Help for Students: A recent American College Health Survey found stress, sleep problems, anxiety, depression, interpersonal concerns, death of a significant other and alcohol use among the top ten health impediments to academic performance. Students experiencing personal problems or situational crises during the quarter are encouraged to contact the OSU Counseling and Consultation Services (614-292-5766; http://www.ccs.ohio-state.edu) for assistance, support and advocacy. This service is free and confidential.

Academic Misconduct: The Ohio State University’s Code of Student Conduct (Section 3335-23-04) defines academic misconduct as “Any activity that tends to compromise the academic integrity of the University, or subvert the educational process.” Examples of academic misconduct include (but are not limited to) plagiarism (from printed or electronic sources), collusion (unauthorized collaboration), copying the work of another student, and possession of unauthorized materials during an examination. Ignorance of the University’s Code of Student Conduct is never considered an excuse for academic misconduct.

If I suspect that a student has committed academic misconduct in this course, I am obligated by University Rules to report my suspicions to the Committee on Academic Misconduct. If COAM determines that you have violated the University’s Code of Student Conduct (i.e., committed academic misconduct), the sanctions for this behavior could include a failing grade in this course and suspension or dismissal from the University. For additional information, see the Code of Student Conduct(http://studentaffairs.osu.edu/info_for_students/csc.asp).

PAES Diversity Statement: The School of PAES is committed to maintaining a community that recognizes and values the inherent worth and dignity of every person; fosters sensitivity, understanding, and mutual respect among its members; and encourages each individual to strive to reach his or her own potential. In pursuit of its goal of academic excellence, the School seeks to develop and nurture diversity, believing that it strengthens the organization, stimulates creativity, promotes the exchange of ideas, and enriches campus life. The School of PAES prohibits discrimination against any member of the schools’ community on the basis of race, religion, color, sex, age, national origin or ancestry, marital status, parental status, gender identity, sexual orientation, ability status, health status, or veteran status.

Different Ability Statement: Any student who feels that s/he may need an accommodation based on the impact of a disability should contact the instructor privately to discuss specific needs. The Office of Disability Services provides assistance in verifying the need for accommodations and developing accommodation strategies. Please contact the Office for Disability Services at 614-292-3307 (V) or 614-292-0901 (TDD) to coordinate accommodations, and visit them on the web at http://www.ods.ohio-state.edu/.

Grievances and Solving Problems: According to University policies available from the Division of Student Affairs, if you have a problem with this class, you should seek to resolve a grievance concerning a grade or academic practice by speaking first with your instructor or professor. Then, if necessary, speak with the department chairperson, college dean, and provost, in that order. Specific procedures are outline in Faculty Rule 3335-7-23, which is available from the Office of Student Life.
