To cope with dramatically increasing problematic behaviors among primary and secondary school students in Japan, training for counseling skills is considered one of the most important areas in current teacher education. The authors have developed on a DVD (Digital Video Disc) a prototype of counseling materials to assist both in the training of college students and in-service teachers learning counseling skills. Multi-angle scenes depicting client, counselor, and complete classroom views were made of three counseling cases. The teachers, by using these DVD materials in training, can observe and analyze counseling sessions from a multilateral perspective by using the multi-video function to select and observe three-angle sequence, the multi-audio function to select and hear comments by expert supervisors, and the subtitle function to show aims and technique of each counselor during each counseling session. Evaluation results showed that this was an effective approach for learning counseling skills with the use of DVD-video. Contains 10 references. (Author/MES)
