2. Closing the Loop Activities/ Decisions
3.f. Are able describe how systemic and environmental factors affect human development, functioning, and behavior
EDC 603: Group Manual
Theory on cause: Early in their studies and they aren’t “there” with diversity and probably have not taken EDC 612, so may not understand growth across the lifespan at this point in the program.
Closing the Loop: Add in Bronfenbrenner and wellness, in EDC 501/503 and EDC 603.
4.g. Are able to identify strategies for advocating for diverse clients’ career and educational development and employment opportunities in a global economy
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: talk more across the curriculum about career development, as opposed to occupations, advocacy for diverse clients. Historically Black Colleges and University,
Closing the Loop: Introduce CSJ Advocacy Competencies in EDC 604: Career and in EDC 501/ EDC 503: Self and Society. Discussion of the importance of addressing career development of clients in clinical coursework.
6.g. Effectively use ethical and culturally relevant strategies for designing and facilitating groups
EDC 603: Group Manual
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: Not enough emphasis on strategies for working with diverse groups
Closing the Loop: More intentional focus on Bronfenbrenner and systems and a greater emphasis on discussing strategies.
7.m. Effectively use ethical and culturally relevant strategies for selecting, administering, and interpreting assessment and test results
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: The field is behind in ethically and culturally relevant strategies for assessment.
Closing the Loop: More intentionality on culturally relevant strategies for assessment and test results in EDC 604, EDC 685, and EDC 718. Ask students to critically examine existing assessments and their appropriateness for diverse populations.
8.a. Are able to describe the importance of research in advancing the counseling profession, and can effectively critique research to inform counseling practice.
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: May be covid related. Is it obvious to alumni that they were taught to critique research?
Closing the Loop: More intentionality in Implementation II.
MH 1.c. Demonstrates knowledge of principles, models, and documentation formats of biopsychosocial case conceptualization and treatment planning.
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: Alumni may not realize that what they were taught is called “biopsychosocial case conceptualization”. This may also be related to these alumni graduating during COVID-19. Finally, this group of alumni would not have taken EDC 718.
Closing the Loop: Consistently reference “case conceptualizations” as “biopsychosocial case conceptualizations”.
MH 3.b. Effectively use techniques and interventions for prevention and treatment of a broad range of mental health issues
EDC 724: Case Conceptualization
Alumni Survey
Theory on cause: Students may not realize that they are engaging in “prevention” when they are engaging social justice, client and professional advocacy, psychoeducation, and when they are preparing clients for next steps.
Closing the Loop: Be more explicit about prevention and they ways in which counselors engage in prevention: social justice, client and professional advocacy, psychoeducation, and when they are preparing clients for next steps. Also, emphasize the differences between evidence-based interventions vs best practices.
Professional Commitment: Self-Assessment of Professional Dispositions
Theory on cause: Is this a result of COVID-19?
Closing the Loop: Host a faculty and graduate assistant discussion about what we think is leading to students and alumni seeing themselves as not “proficient” in professional commitment. Faculty talk with students in class about their thoughts related to professional commitment.
General Closing the Loop Activities
- Engage in a qualitative study of alumni in 2024
- The Department Chair’s training of adjuncts may not be sufficient in ensuring consistency. Each adjunct should also have a faculty mentor. The Chair should share with full-time faculty the messaging the adjuncts are receiving so that feedback and recommendations are consistent. Trial run: try to put at least one core faculty in each course and adjuncts in the remaining sections, then provide mentoring to the adjuncts teaching the other sections (rather than placing all adjuncts in all sections of core classes and all full-time faculty in clinical courses). Adjuncts should be instructed to direct program questions to students’ advisors, clinical coordinators or the chair.
- Admissions: During COVID-19 and beyond, more students have demonstrated dispositional and academic issues; potentially add in additional screening tools at admissions.
- Many students are struggling with self-management when given too much flexibility in coursework. Instructors should seek to create more structure than what we needed to do in the past. We should also track when students are seeking incompletes across multiple semesters.
- At the conclusion of EDC 501/ EDC 503, the faculty should discuss each student’s strengths and limitations.
- In addition to the time of Application to Clinical Coursework, faculty should also conduct a full academic and dispositional review as students enroll in EDC 720 (Practicum) to address emerging issues since their approval to clinical coursework
