Application of CBT in Schools CBT provides an appropriate framework to handle disparities in children’s social development. The actual context will thus involve CBT bringing out behavioral and emotional changes in elementary children as well as adolescents in high schools. Fazio-Griffith and Ballard (2014) argue that there exists children who have problems in developing relationships with their teachers and peers. Usually, Cognitive Behavior Therapy has given an ample intervention that improves the academic and emotional level of functioning. In elementary and middle schools, social skills groups would function appropriately with CBT to induce the required social outcomes. Fazio-Griffith and Ballard (2014) state that elementary schools have deployed this strategy to handle cases of conduct disorders such as autism and cerebral palsy...

...American Public schools are being slated with more than just teaching core academic subjects. They are increasingly being put on the front line to deal with their students’ social emotional needs. Where academic subjects have a Common Core Curriculum and/or State Standards that explicitly give the learning objectives teacher’s must meet by the end of each school year, the significant and increased need for social emotional learning in the school setting is still a relatively new area with limited research and programing available to educators. Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is currently affecting more than 11% of the student population in the United States. Right now, ADHD is the most commonly diagnosed neurodevelopmental disorder....

That day, Lanza, who was 20 years old, shot 20 children and six adults before he killed himself and after shooting his own mother (Stanglin & Bello, 2014). According to the Office of the Child Advocate report (2014), Adam Lazan shot his mother four times with a riffle. Later, he went to Sandy Hook Elementary School and eight minutes later he had killed 20 children within the ages of six and seven, and six staff members including the school principal, psychologist, teachers and teachers’ assistants. Finally, when first responders were arriving to the school he shot himself with a handgun. Such act resulted in the establishment of the Governor’s Sandy Hook Advisory Commission, which provides recommendations in public safety (Shooting at Sandy, 2014). In order to analyze the criminal act and the motivations behind it, first we will...

...Assessments: What are the Ethical Concerns and how to tell what Type will Work best Desmond Demetrice Edwards April 10, 2013 This assignment will discuss different types of assessments that can be administered to the clients aforementioned in order to properly develop a course of action to help assist them with their individual needs. For instance, what can be done to help this young man cope with his personal and family life? Is there any way that an assessment can help him rediscover the joys of life? Is it possible for the 41 year old divorcee to inner peace, and if so, how will an assessment correlate with this? Also, can the academic careers of the two students somehow be salvaged? This paper will delve into the different historical and contextual considerations for these clients in hopes that one can find similarities in the cases given. In addition, this paper will discuss the ethical and personal issues that could hinder an assessment from bearing the fruit that is needed to help these people in crisis find an alternative to the madness. Assessments can definitely either assist or hurt a client’s chance of recovery especially if the wrong one is given to them. B.F Skinner said in 1938 that, “we need to go beyond mere observation to a study of functional relationships” and that, “we may only do this by finding variables of which behavior is a function” (Steege & Watson 2009, p. 1). These quotes have a lot of meaning behind them. Skinner...

...Freddy Jackson KH 1111 Johnny Cox 1/19/16 Role of Personal History in Career Choice Assignment Throughout the course of elementary school, I wasn’t really sure what I wanted to do. During elementary school the only real exercise I had was through P.E. at school and that was it. I wasn’t active at home too much and I only exercised when I was at school. I went to a private elementary school and our physical activities lasted about 45 minutes to an hour. We did everything from football to basketball, and simply just running around and seeing who the fastest of everyone was. I really enjoyed this but I never really got the opportunity to be more active than this because my family was always working and I was stuck inside the house most of the time. Looking back on it I wish I would have been a lot more active back then, because I would have been in a lot better shape than I am now. The influences during this time were mostly my teachers and my classmates. Whenever I would struggle with a physical activity, they would motivate me and encourage me to do better. Middle school wasn’t too much different for me than elementary school was. The only exercise I would get would be at school for a little while, then I made some friends in my neighborhood, and I found myself becoming more and more active. My parents were always strict with me and didn’t let me get out, but whenever I did I had a lot of fun and made the most of it. There were many different opportunities for me to...

...challenges of safety. The first step toward helping the child is seeing that the abused parent is safe; another essential step is in assisting older children and adolescents in planning for their safety. Helping children and teens to develop specific strategies for keeping safe gives them a sense of control so that they feel less vulnerable. Counseling services There are a wide variety of counseling and mental health interventions available to families affected by domestic violence. Usually, families need more than therapy; they need case management and advocacy to assist the victim of violence in navigating the legal system, and in obtaining the resources and support the adult victim needs to maintain safety and security for herself/himself and the children. It is important that mental health treatment be provided in a context of comprehensive support for the children and their non offending parent. For children, interventions include groups, individual therapy, and dyadic treatment with their non offending...
