Systems Consultation and Change in Schools (eBook, PDF)

Integrating Implementation Science into Practice

Redaktion: Nellis, Leah M.; Fenning, Pamela A.

Beschreibung

This book explores the ways in which systems (organizational) consultation may be applied to school roles and functions as part of an overall systems change process. Using an implementation science framework grounded in systems/organizational consultation research, the volume details how school reform or improvement may be facilitated. School-based case studies illustrate the application of implementation science to systems change efforts in schools and districts across the United States. Each case study describes the implementation science steps taken to deliver a school-based innovation at the systems level. The book discusses implementation science theory combined with real-world examples of its use in planning for, implementing, and engaging in ongoing evaluation of a systems change effort.

Key areas of coverage include:

• Implementation science in educational settings.
• Key stakeholder roles in school-based systems change.
• Implementing and evaluating systems change in schools.
• Teacher-student mediation to reduce conflict and ensure effective school discipline and behavior practices.
• District-level processes and supports for English Language Learners.
• Mental health screening and social-emotional well-being of students.

Systems Consultation and Change in Schools is an essential resource for researchers, professors, and graduate students as well as scientist-practitioners, school-based practitioners, and clinicians across such disciplines as school administration and leadership, school and clinical child psychology, social work, public health, teaching and teacher education, educational policy and practice, and all interrelated fields.
