Goal 6 - To Develop Students’ Understanding of School and Systems Organization, Policy Development, and Climate

Objectives

• 6.1 - Provide educational services (e.g. general education, special education)
• 6.2 - Create effective learning environments for children and others
• 6.3 - Understand models of supervision (e.g. mental health, behavioral)
• 6.4 - Engage in the practice of supervision

Strategy for Ensuring Competency
Through the coursework and field placement experiences, students become knowledgeable in policy development, organizational structure, and the educational environment, as well as how they impact upon a student’s learning. When developing intervention and consultative plans in conjunction with the Center for Psychological Services School Affiliate Program, students are asked to identify any strengths and barriers of the school system and the community that may have an impact on the efficacy of any intervention.
