Reframing Class Scheduling: Seven School Counselor Benefits, Challenges, Considerations, and Recommendations
Wines, Lisa; Nelson, Judith A.; Eckstein, Daniel
Journal of School Counseling, v5 n16 2007
The American School Counseling Association (ASCA) identifies scheduling students for classes as a non-counseling activity. Ideally, school counselors should limit non-counseling activities, but the reality is that counselors do in fact spend much time and energy scheduling classes, according to a recent survey of secondary counselors. We introduce a cognitive reframing of the task of scheduling classes as well as seven specific benefits, challenges, considerations, and concluding recommendations. (Contains 4 charts.)
