Students learn how to integrate these social-emotional assessments into comprehensive assessments designed to facilitate identification of youths who require special services to benefit from public education and to assist program development. The course is particularly appropriate for students who are interested in school psychology, clinical child psychology, or have an interest in working with youths who have emotional and or behavioral challenges. Following a scientist-practitioner model, this year we will review recently developed instruments and in the process examine and discuss best practices in instrument development and enhancement. Offered alternate Spring quarters. Students working in school teams will write a full inclusion plan for their school and continue to develop their group process and problem solving skills.
Enrollment is by consent of the instructor.
