Produktbeschreibung

Volume I of the Handbook of Education, Training, and Supervision of School Psychologists in School and Community focuses on the professional issues and topics that form the core of the university curriculum for the school psychology specialist degree. Four main sections will review contemporary university training programs, foundations of school education, key areas of responsibility for school-based mental health professionals, and a look to the future of training for school psychologists. While the audiences for two volumes will overlap considerably, Volume I should appeal most directly to program directors, professors, and students within the university settings, though it will also be of use to field-based supervisors who may be somewhat removed from university.

Volume I focuses on the professional issues and topics that form the core of the university curriculum for the school psychology specialist degree. It explores contemporary university training programs, the foundations of school education, and key areas of responsibility for school-based mental health professionals, and takes a look at the future of training for school psychologists. Specific issues such as the teaching of specialty skills and training for unique areas and special populations are also discussed. By way of raising questions and issues that ultimately play out in the field, it lays the groundwork for Volume II, which is dedicated to bridging the training and practice gap.
