The role of the school counsellor as a frontline mental health professional: views, experiences, approaches, outcomes, and challengesOlafson, Jón J. 13 December 2013 (has links)
School counsellors are individuals with specialized training in social-emotional support for children and adolescents. In fact, school counsellors are the front-line school personnel who recognize and respond to various student mental health concerns. Despite the important role of school counsellors, there is little research that explores the experiences and perceptions of school counsellors who support students with mental health concerns. Using a phenomenological qualitative approach, this study is based on a set of interviews conducted with four school counsellors who work with students ranging from kindergarten to grade 12. School counsellors were interviewed individually and asked about their views, experiences, approaches, outcomes, and challenges in relation to supporting students with mental health concerns. Data analysis explored the lived experience and essential themes of school counsellors working as mental health professionals.

Integration av mångkulturella elever i skolan : En kvalitativ studie från skolkuratorers perspektiv / Integration of multicultural students in school : a qualitative study from school counsellors’perspectiveAlioska, Milifer January 2011 (has links)
The Swedish school in today’s society is multicultural. One of the main questions is how to integratethese students in the Swedish society. The purpose with the study is to explore how schoolcounsellors’ work to promote the integration of multicultural students and what factors can influencethe integration of these students. To clarify this, the terms integration and multicultural are explainedand discussed.It is an qualitative study consisting of interviews. The interviewed informants are all school counsellors.These are specifically chosen based on that they work in schools with a high number ofmulticultural students. The work with integration has failed in Sweden, where it exists a separationbetween ”us” and ”them”, which makes them feel like outsiders. This separation also exists in theschool environment.Integration is a process in which Swedes and people with foreign background live together andwhere people understand each other and each others culture. A multicultural youngster is one who isgrappling to find himself between two cultures: who asks himself “who am I? and “who do I wantto be?” These school counsellors strive to work for an understanding between them and multiculturalstudents. An understanding for each others cultures and values. One factor that can hamperthe integration is if the student’s parents do not want their children to participate in classes whichare supposed to be against their religion or culture. Another factor that hampers the integration aresegregated schools and neighborhoods. In which these students never really participate in the Swedishsociety but live as they would in their homeland.

Kommunikation online : En fallstudie av Korrespondensgymnasiets elevkurativa arbete / Online communication : A case study of the school counsellor support at KorrespondensgymnasietBrolin, Evelina, Parde Peterson, Malin January 2015 (has links)
The main purpose of this study was to examine how social work can be performed online, by a case study of Korrespondensgymnasiet that pursues distance education. The intention was to determine the possibilities and limits with the online communication between the school counsellor and the pupils. The study was based on qualitative semi-structured interviews with one school counsellor and five pupils and document analysis of three descriptions of the school counsellor’s profession. The theory that has been used in this study is the communication theory: Shannon and Weaver’s Model of Communication and non-verbal communication. An essential discovery is that alternative ways to communicate can maintain an option to traditional communication face to face. This is mainly because the pupils find it more important to have the possibility to make contact with the school counsellor, rather than how the communication is being performed. We also discovered that the descriptions of the school counsellor’s profession doesn’t stand in the way of having online communication with the pupils.

Skolkuratorers kunskap och erfarenhet om tics och Tourette syndrom : En kvalitativ intervjustudie / School counsellors knowledge and experience of tics and Tourette syndrome : A qualitative interviewstudyStenborg, Malin, Livh, Alexandra January 2013 (has links)
The aim of this study was to examine the knowledge and the experience that school counsellors have about tics and Tourette syndrome. This study is based on a qualitative research which we conducted with semi-structured interviews. We have done five interviews with different school counsellors in a small municipality in southern Sweden. The theoretical approach that was used in this study was theory of knowledge as a comprehensive theory and professional competence which includes formal knowledge and tacit knowledge. Some of the study’s conclusions are that the School Counsellors had different professional competence about tics and Tourette syndrome. The school counsellors had received their knowledge through formal educations and work experience. School counsellors had different types of education which mean that they had different knowledge and experiences but also different approaches, methods and way to relate students with tics and Tourette syndrome in their profession. In our results, it appears that work experience and formal education often exist together. Therefore it is not possible to say which specific form of knowledge school counsellors use in a meeting with a student with tics and Tourette syndrome, and whether this could have affected the meeting.

Advocacy for Gender Minority Students: Recommendations for Professional School CounsellorsSimons, Jack D., Beck, Matthew J., Asplund, Nancy R., Chan, Christian D., Byrd, Rebekah J. 01 January 2017 (has links)
Research shows that teachers’ and educators’ responses to gender diversity issues in schools either improves or limits the experiences of students. The school counsellor has an important role to play in this process by working closely with other stakeholders to advocate for transgender, intersex and genderqueer (TIG) students. Following a review of recent developments in the USA, recommendations are made and resources identified to assist school counsellors in validating TIG students, and improving school systems in pursuit of their academic, social and emotional success

Skolkuratorns arbete med problematisk skolgång : - Från erfarenhet och bemötande till systematik och evidens / School councelling and problematic schooling : - From experience and reception to systematics and evidenceLindblom, Lisa, Lindgren, Julia January 2019 (has links)
Syftet med denna studie var att undersöka skolkuratorers erfarenheter av hur en problematisk skolgång identifieras, hur de bemöter denna problematik samt hur de kvalitetssäkrar arbetet. För att besvara studiens syfte genomfördes en kvalitativ intervjustudie med fem skolkuratorer på grundskolor i Mellansverige. Empirin analyserades utifrån teori kring problematisk skolgång, systematiskt kvalitetsarbete samt evidensbaserad praktik. Resultatet visade att problematisk skolgång innebär att måluppfyllelse inte nås eller att skolgången blir avbruten, viktiga faktorer i sammanhanget var frånvaro samt ökad psykisk ohälsa. Skolkuratorerna ansåg att en god relation mellan eleven och skolan samt samverkan var viktiga framgångsfaktorer för att tidigt upptäcka och kunna åtgärda problematiken. Systematiskt kvalitetsarbete framkom som en viktig faktor och i synnerhet genom kontroll av giltig och ogiltig frånvaro samt genom kartläggningar på olika nivåer. Att arbeta med evidens ansågs också vara viktigt men samtidigt fanns viss skepsis mot nya metoder och ofta användes bara valda delar av evidensbaserade metoder för att kunna individanpassa och att se helheten. / The purpose of this study is to examine how school counsellors, in their own practical experience, identify problematic schooling; how they approach these problems; and how they assure the quality of their work. To answer these questions, the authors have conducted a qualitative study, interviewing five school counsellors working in different schools in Central Sweden. The empirical study has been analyzed using the theoretical concepts of problematic schooling, systematic quality assurance, and evidence-based practice. The outcome of the study suggests that problematic schooling entails the failure to reach educational goals, or even the complete disruption of schooling. Important factors include pupil absence and impaired mental health. A successful pupil–school relationship, as well as a co-operative environment, are identified by the interview subjects as important factors for the successful detection and intervention of problematic schooling. Furthermore, systematic quality assurance is identified as a key factor, particularly in the shape of survey and verification by the school regarding the validity of pupil absence. Finally, the interview subjects generally consider an evidence-based approach to be important, but also tend to display some scepticism towards the implementation of new methods. The study thus shows that evidence-based methods are often only partially applied, in an attempt by school counsellors to make case-dependent adjustments to fit the wider picture.

<p>The aim of this study was to examine how some Swedish school counsellor’s describe their school social work and how they look at its content. Further more the aim is to look at what restraining and promoting factors the school counsellor’s experience in their working situation. The approach of the study is qualitative and interviews have been made with five school counsellors. The results show that school counsellors have a variety of different working-areas, which consist of supporting and consulting pupils, parents and teachers through dialogue. Another assignment is to work preventive with groups and classes. Other scientists have found similar results as the ones in this study. About restraining and promoting factors in their work, the school counsellors expressed, for example, time and resources as restraining factors and as promoting factors they mentioned closeness to the pupils and working preventive. Their offices were mentioned being both a restraining and promoting factor due to the central activity of dialogue. They expressed that they were all satisfied with their work, but that it would be enough to work full-time on just one school. To analyse the results the time-geographic perspective was used.</p>
