Each intern will be assigned a counseling related topic to thoroughly research. The student will be responsible for preparing a scholarly paper using APA format. Paper should include:
Overview of the issue: What is the current state of the issue? What are important or key factors which may contribute to or are involved with the issue?
Symptoms that might manifest themselves in the K-12 school setting: How does this issue affect students and their families (specifically the use of preferred names and pronouns)? How does this issue impact student achievement?
Role of the School Counselor & possible interventions: What do they do in the school environment? How do they interact with home & community?
