Predicting The Development Of Counselor Self-efficacy In Counselors-in-training During Their First Semester In Practicum Using Embedded, Rich Media In A Distributed Learning Environment.

Super, John 01 January 2013 (has links)
The first semester of practicum is a difficult time for counseling students as they learn to integrate knowledge and theory into clinical practice, often evoking high levels of anxiety (Barbee, Scherer, & Combs, 2003; Ronnestad & Skovholt, 1993) and limiting counselor selfefficacy (Bernard & Goodyear, 2009; Melchert et al., 1996). Practicum is the first opportunity counselors-in-training have to apply theoretical knowledge in a professional setting, use new clinical skills, and test how well they fit into the field of counseling (O‟Connell & Smith, 2005). Additionally, if counselor educators do not fully understand the process counselors in training develop counselor self-efficacy, they may be overlooking opportunities to educate a new generation of counselors or using their time, energy and resources in areas that may not be the most efficient in counselor development. The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of an embedded, rich-media distributed learning environment added to practicum had on the development of counselor self-efficacy, reduction of anxiety and effect on treatment outcomes for counselors in training in their first semester of practicum. This study found the use of distributed learning to extend education beyond the classroom significantly and positively affected the development of counselor selfefficacy, had mixed statistical results on the reduction of anxiety and did not have an affect on treatment outcome. Furthermore, the study used hierarchical linear modeling to see if the characteristics of individual practicums affected the three main constructs, the results did not find a significant effect from the groups. iv The results of the study produced several implications for counseling. First, if counselor educators help counselors in training become more aware of counselor self-efficacy, the students can better understand how the construct affects their anxiety, their comfort with expanding or improving their clinical skills and the approach they take to a client, session or treatment plan. A second implication is that using an embedded, rich-media learning environment may help the counselors in training to develop their clinical skills. The results of this study imply that utilizing technology and discussions beyond the classroom is beneficial for (a) increasing the students‟ counselor self-efficacy, (b) normalizing the emotions the students may experience and (c) improving the methods for development through vicarious learning. Also, as technology continues to evolve and as education continues to adapt by integrating technology into the classrooms, counselor educators should begin exploring how to best use technology to teach students during practicum. Traditionally, based on the nature of counseling, practicum has been an interpersonal experience, but the results of the current study imply the methods of extending learning beyond the traditional class time is beneficial. Finally, as counselor educators strive to increase students‟ counselor self-efficacy early in practicum, in an environment that contains anxiety and self-doubt (Bernard & Goodyear, 2009; Cashwell & Dooley, 2001) using vicarious learning through video and online discussions can assist in accomplishing the goal.

This Is How We Do It: Black Counselor Educators Preparing Counselors-in-Training to Broach Race

Loury, Jacoby Alexander 28 May 2024 (has links)
Counselor educators are responsible for training counselors-in-training (CITs), equipping them with knowledge and skills to best serve racially diverse clients (CACREP, 2015). CITs may demonstrate multicultural competence by broaching race, or inviting clients to consider the extent to which race contributes to one's presenting problem (Day-Vines et al., 2017). Practicum and Internship experiences offer counselor educators the opportunity to prepare CITs to broach race through group supervision. Thus, this interpretative phenomenological analysis aimed to explore experiences of Black counselor educators in CACREP-accredited counseling programs, as their voices have historically been overlooked in scholarship (Haskins and Singh, 2015). Five GETs were revealed including: (a) Degree of Multiculturalism in Counseling Program, (b) Regular Conversations of Race, (c) Defining Broaching, (d) Centering Clients' Culture, and (e) Feeling Tension with Students as well as three divergent experiences. Overall, these findings highlight the ways in which Black counselor educators navigate the task of supporting CITs with the broaching intervention. This study illuminates what counselor education programs, counselor educators, and CACREP can do to improve what is currently being done about broaching preparation in counselor education. / Doctor of Philosophy / Counselor educators are responsible for training counselors-in-training (CITs), equipping them with knowledge and skills to best serve racially diverse clients (CACREP, 2015).

Counselor Trainees' Perceptions of Preparedness for Practicum Supervision

Sturm-Mexic, Jannette 10 August 2005 (has links)
This exploratory research study investigated perceptions of practicum counselor trainees to help understand how prepared they believed they were for supervision. Based upon common elements of various developmental models of supervision, this study examined counselor trainees’ perceptions of their preparedness for practicum supervision based upon: (a) expectations of supervision; (b) understanding of the structure and formats used in supervision; (c) receptivity to and use of feedback in supervision; and (d) the evaluative component of supervision. This study also investigated possible explanations as to what factors may lead counselor trainees to feel more or less prepared for practicum supervision. The participants in this study were 156 counseling students enrolled in practicum courses at 27 CACREPaccredited counseling programs across the United States during the spring semester of 2005. The instrument used in this study was the Counselor Trainee Preparedness Perceptions Survey - Practicum Supervision (CTPPS-PS) survey, developed by the researcher. The CTPPS-PS was administered anonymously online through an Internet link distributed to students by practicum instructors or in paper format. To minimize the effects of varying practicum supervision experiences incurred by the sample participants, data collection was restricted to a 30-day period during the first half of the academic semester. Findings from this research revealed significant positive relationships between counselor trainees' overall perceptions of preparedness for practicum supervision and perceived preparation for various aspects of supervision. For the various aspects of supervision, the strongest relationships were found between overall perceptions of preparedness and preparation for what is required in supervision and to accept guidance and support through supervision. The weakest relationship was between overall perceptions and preparation for supervisory evaluation. These research findings also revealed significant positive relationships between counselor trainees' overall perceptions of preparedness for practicum supervision and perceptions of practicum supervision experience to date as well as with comfort experienced with receiving feedback in supervision. Another significant finding was consistently higher overall perceptions of preparedness for trainees being supervised by part-time faculty and for trainees attending universities with doctoral counseling programs. The findings of this study may encourage counselor educators to augment their programs and courses with supervision preparation strategies so that students may begin practicum feeling better prepared than the participants in this study. For supervisors, findings from this study can form the basis for a dialogue at the onset of supervision to determine the needs of counselor trainees, and thus help mitigate potential obstacles to practicum experiences resulting from areas lacking in preparation for supervision.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Valeria Septimio Alves Fadini.pdf: 1269441 bytes, checksum: 2badd13c46f73b0b3aba4c1aff9240c2 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2013-06-21 / This work aims to understand how student teachers of the English Language and Literature undergraduate program at Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo (Ufes) make use of the experiences in Teaching Practicum II to construct their own identity as teachers. We assume that Teaching Practicum is essential for the process of pre-service teacher education, once it is the moment student teachers learn the profession by having the opportunity to know the working place, connect theory to practice, develop professional identity, produce knowledge based on teaching and research on pedagogical practice, in few words, try what it means to be a teacher under the guidance of experienced teachers, in a collaborative perspective between the university and field schools. The theoretical reference of this research is based on Pimenta and Lima (2004) studies on Teaching Practicum, on Nóvoa (2010, 2000); Josso (2010, 2008, 2004) and Souza (2008, 2006) work on the use of educational narratives, in the (auto)biographical methodology. Therefore, it is a qualitative research, which analyses the educational narratives in five out of nine final teaching practicum reports, as well as in online questionnaires, produced by nine out of 22 students of the mentioned subject, in the first semester of 2011. In order to broaden our comprehension of the pre-service teacher education process, we included Teaching Practicum retrospective narratives produced by both the Teaching Practicum supervisor and the experienced school teacher whose classes were observed during teacher training period. The results show that collaborative work is essential for the students good teaching performance during the practical program and that Teaching Practicum experiences contribute to build up necessary teaching skills and knowledge and an inquiry posture in the pre-service teachers. To sum up, one can say that the reflective and research experiences developed during Teaching Practicum significantly contributed to students education, encouraging commitment to the complex educational reality in which they are placed, and, reinforcing their awareness of the necessity of long-life education / Este trabalho tem por objetivo compreender como os alunos estagiários de um curso de Licenciatura em Letras-Inglês apropriaram-se das experiências de Estágio Supervisionado na sua constituição profissional docente. Partimos do pressuposto de que o desenvolvimento do Estágio Supervisionado, na formação inicial do professor, é fundamental para o processo de construção da profissionalização docente, uma vez que é o momento em que os licenciandos têm oportunidade de aprender a profissão, de aproximar-se do ambiente de trabalho docente com a perspectiva de articulação entre teoria e prática; de construir suas identidades; de produzir conhecimentos por meio do ensino e da pesquisa com e em prática pedagógica. Enfim, de experimentar o que é ser professor e, assim, refletir sobre as práticas pedagógicas e a profissão, sob a orientação do professor da universidade, em uma relação de colaboração e parceria com as escolas-campo de estágio. O referencial teórico-metodológico baseia-se em estudos de Pimenta e Lima (2004) e Nóvoa (2010, 2000); Josso (2010; 2008; 2004) e Souza (2008; 2006) para discutir sobre o Estágio Supervisionado e o uso de narrativas de formação sob orientação do método (auto)biográfico. Portanto, esta pesquisa, de cunho qualitativo, utilizou narrativas de formação produzidas em relatórios finais de estágio e em questionários online por alunos que cursaram a disciplina Estágio Supervisionado II, no período letivo de 2011/01, no entrelaçamento com as narrativas da professora orientadora de estágio e da professora regente para apreender outros olhares sobre as experiências de Estágio Supervisionado. Os resultados indicam que o trabalho colaborativo foi essencial para o bom desempenho dos alunos estagiários durante a regência e que as experiências construídas, durante o período do Estágio Supervisionado, possibilitaram a apropriação de conhecimentos e saberes constitutivos da identidade profissional docente. Acreditamos que a prática da escrita de si provoca uma reflexão crítica que favorece uma formação mais consistente diante da complexidade dos processos formativos e da prática docente. Concluímos que as experiências desenvolvidas incentivaram um comprometimento com a realidade educacional, especialmente com o ensino da língua inglesa, formando profissionais mais críticos e cientes de que a formação ocorre ao longo da vida

El desarrollo de las metacompetencias Pensamiento Crítico Reflexivo y Autonomía de Aprendizaje, a través del uso del e-Diario en el Prácticum de Formación del Profesorado

Reguant Álvarez, Mercedes 16 May 2012 (has links)
En un mundo cada vez más complejo, cambiante y global, y en un momento en el que el sistema de Educación Superior español está avanzando hacia la implementación del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior, se hace obvia la necesidad de encontrar fórmulas que optimicen las prácticas educativas. Cada vez más, se requieren personas que sean capaces de dar respuesta a situaciones más complejas. En este contexto, tiene cabida la presente tesis doctoral. Su finalidad principal es valorar la consolidación de las metacompetencias "Pensamiento Crítico Reflexivo" (PCR) y "Aprendizaje Autónomo" (AA) a través del recurso tecnológico del e-Diario como mecanismo y estrategia en el Practicum de maestros. Los maestros tienen una importancia clave en la producción y reproducción de la cultura. Precisamente por ello, creemos que este es uno de los ámbitos en los que deben concentrarse múltiples esfuerzos .de revisión y mejora. En el modelo educativo actual de desarrollo de competencias parece hallarse una respuesta ajustada a las necesidades que se les plantean diariamente. Se trata de las potencialidades que conllevan las competencias específicas y transversales en el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Pensando en éstas últimas, y avanzando un paso más allá, esta tesis se adentra en el debate sobre el desarrollo de las metacompetencias -aquellas que habilitan para la autovaloración, el avance personal y la adaptación continua. En el marco de la formación de los maestros, el Practicum ocupa un lugar destacado. De ahí que este trabajo focalice su atención en esta etapa, como período de consolidación de competencias por excelencia y cuya potencialidad ha sido ampliamente ratificada en las valoraciones hechas a raíz de la revisión de los Planes de Estudio de los distintos países de la Unión Europea. Creemos que este período debe ser potenciado para lograr su máximo aprovechamiento y como espacio temporal de desarrollo de la AA y el PCR. Además, entendiendo el protagonismo de la interacción que permiten los sistemas virtuales y el énfasis que debe cobrar el cómo se aprende desplazando la tradicional tendencia de valorar únicamente al qué se aprende, valoramos una experiencia tan potente como el e-Diario. Este recurso tecnológico es una plataforma virtual de intercambio que moviliza y lleva a los estudiantes a la acción a través de la escritura de un diario dialogado en varios foros de discusión. Sus mecanismos de acción son la coevaluación formativa, el diálogo entre iguales y el aprendizaje colaborativo -elementos que se activan durante el acompañamiento del Practicum de la formación de los maestros. Para desarrollar la tesis, hemos hecho un estudio de casos funcional, cuya forma de implementación adoptó a la investigación evaluativa, siguiendo la lógica procesual del modelo CIPP (Contexto, Insumo, Proceso, Producto) de Stufflebeam. En cada una de las fases del proceso, valoramos una serie de indicadores asociados a dos ejes transversales: por una parte, el desarrollo de las metacompetencias PCR y AA; y, por la otra, el e-Diario y sus bondades. Sus hallazgos se valoran sinérgicamente complementándose entre sí. / In an ever changing, more complex and global world, at a time when Spain's Higher Education system is advancing toward the implementation of the European Higher Education Area, the need to find optimized methods for educational internships becomes apparent. The need for trained people able to solve evermore complex situations constantly increases. This doctoral thesis circles around this context; its primary goal is to assess the consolidation of both Reflective Thinking and Autonomous Learning meta-competences using the technological resource e-Diario as a mechanism and as a strategy throughout the teacher's Practicum. Within the framework of training teachers, the Practicum takes a very important role. Therefore this thesis pays special attention to this part, as a period of consolidation of the competences par excellence. We believe that this period has to be strengthened in order to get the most out of it and as a temporal space in the development of both Reflective Thinking and Autonomous Learning meta-competences. In addition, comprehending the role of interaction that virtual platforms provide and the emphasis that should be put in the benefit of the process of learning and how you learn, instead of the traditional tendency towards what you learn, we highly cherish a tool as powerful as the e-Diario. This technological resource is a virtual platform of exchange that mobilizes and brings students to action through the writing of a dialogued diary in several debate forums. Its mechanisms of action are formative co-evaluation, dialog as equals and collaborative learning -present all the way throughout the Practicum in the training of teachers. In order to develop the thesis, we performed a functional case study, of which implementation form adopted evaluative research, following procedural logic of the Stufflebeam's CIPP model (Context, Input, Process, and Product). In each one of the process' phases, we assess a series of indicators associated with two transversal axes: on one hand, the development of both metacompetences, on the other hand, the e-Diario and its features. Its findings are both valued as a complement of the other one.

Orientador: Roberto Nardi / Banca: Maria José Pereira Monteiro de Almeida / Banca: Washington Luiz Pacheco de Carvalho / Resumo: Descreve-se aqui uma pesquisa com estudantes cursando a disciplina Prática de Ensino no último ano do Curso de Licenciatura em Física na Universidade Estadual Paulista - UNESP - Câmpus de Bauru, São Paulo. A pesquisa procurou avaliar a transformação de postura destes futuros docentes através da reflexão durante o processo, planejamento e aplicação em situações reais de sala de aula de uma sequência de atividades de ensino sobre o tema pressão atmosférica, levando em consideração resultados recentes de investigações na linha construtivista, tais como: respeito às concepções prévias dos estudantes, discussões sobre mudança conceitual e inserção da História e Filosofia da Ciência no ensino. A pesquisa buscou especificamente responder às seguintes questões: a) as atividades desenvolvidas influenciaram diretamente no conhecimento do conteúdo específico sobre o tema abordado? b) como os futuros docentes transformaram o conteúdo específico em conteúdo pedagógico? Após discussões teóricas os planejamentos de ensino foram elaborados por cada um dos três grupos de licenciandos e as sequências de atividades foram aplicadas em turmas de ensino médio, sob supervisão do docente responsável pela disciplina. Nos intervalos entre as aplicações das atividades foram realizadas reuniões de reflexões sobre a prática realizada. Todas atividades foram cuidadosamente gravadas. A coleta de dados incluiu também questionários e entrevistas iniciais e finais. As conclusões mostram que: a) a reflexão sobre a prática apresenta-se como um aspecto positivo a ser considerado na formação iniciail, pois favoreceu a incorporação de elementos essenciais do referencial teórico estudado: b) o processo favoreceu uma melhoria significativa do conhecimento sobre conteúdos específicos de Física dos licenciandos; c) em relação a aspectos pedagógicos, nem sempre os futuros...

The research aimed to evaluate the future teachers posture's change through the reflection made during the process of planning and applying a sequence of classes about atmosphere pressure in real classroom situations, taking into consideration outcomes of recent constructivist research such as: respect to the students' previous conceptions, discussions on conceptual change and insertion of History and Phylosophy of Science into teaching. The research sought specifically to answer to the following questions: a) Do the developed activities induced to improve future teacher's content knowledge on the subject taught? b) How do the future teachers turned the content knowledge into pedagogical knowledge? After theoretical discussions the teaching planning were elaborated for each one of the three groups of future teachers and the activities sequence were applied in High School classrooms, under the advising of the professor responsible for the course. During the intervals between the applications meeting were made in order to reflect on the teaching practice observed. All the activities done were recorded. Data collected include also questionnaires and initial and final interviews. Conclusions show that: a) the reflection on the teaching practice shows as a positive aspect to be considered during the initial formation of teachers since it favoured to incorporate essential elements of theoretical references studied before; b) the process helped to improve future teachers' content knowledge; c) in relation to pedagogical contents, classroom activities show that not always they assumed constructivist posture during the classes; mixing them with other traditional methodologies...

Improving Pre-Service Teacher Development Practices in English as a Second Language: A case of Secondary School Teacher Preparation at Great Zimbabwe University in Zimbabwe.

Ngwaru, Cathrine January 2017 (has links)
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD ( Language Education) / Ordinarily, Teacher Development at the level of Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) at Great Zimbabwe University (GZU) comes in two major phases spread over four years - the theoretical and the practical based phases. The theoretical phase comes in the form of courses based on pedagogical content and professional knowledge in the initial years at the university while the practical based phase comes in the form of school-based Teaching Practice (TP) for real and direct teaching experiences. The initial theoretical phase is often based on the liberal arts-like education to develop the whole teacher for adaptable life-long service. This is translated by a number of subject that can vary according the dictates of the focus of a particular national curriculum. TP on the other hand, provides student-teachers the opportunity to apply not only the knowledge acquired in the initial phase but also the schoolbased curriculum they are immersed in plus other contextual experiences they might have. If well-structured and blended, the two phases may ensure a smooth transition from a novice student teacher to an expert professional teacher for long-life practice.
