The "Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation": A Quarter Century of Contribution, a Future of Challenge and Optimism
Truscott, Stephen D.; Lopez, Emilia; Fish, Marian C.; Margolis, Howard
Journal of Educational & Psychological Consultation, v25 n1 p2-15 2015
The "Journal of Educational and Psychological Consultation" ("JEPC") is beginning its second quarter century of publication. Given the challenges education faced in 1990, when the journal began publishing, and the evolving challenges of 2015, it became important to answer two questions: (1) Has "JEPC" successfully contributed to the facilitation of service delivery leading to improved outcomes? (2) What major challenges should "JEPC" consider--in an era of diminishing school budgets, professional autonomy, and social safety nets--to ensure that it can help to meet the needs of struggling learners, their fellow students, and the people and organizations who work on their behalf? To help answer these questions, this article discusses "JEPC's" contributions to consultation, current and future challenges, and possible directions for meeting the current and future needs of struggling learners, their peers, and all other stakeholders to which "JEPC" has dedicated itself.
