Supervisor Development The role of the mentor is uniquely suited to the development of professional values. As a Mentor (and Athena disguised as Mentor) guided  Telemachus’ development during Odysseus’ absence, the counseling mentor guides the development of the new counselor. Mentoring allows the supervisor to help supervisees envision themselves as professionals  (Corey et al., 2010). Whether you are operating as teacher, mentor, or supervisor (or any combination of the three), you have a responsibility to pass on the  essential knowledge and skills of the profession to the next generation  (Sommers-Flanagan & Sommers-Flanagan, 2007). The roles of teacher  and supervisor have clear responsibilities (both legal and ethical) to  guide this passing of knowledge and skills. As a mentor, you act in more  informal settings and without specific guidelines. Or do you? There are serious ethical concerns when knowledge is morally  disconnected from its application (Sommers-Flanagan &  Sommers-Flanagan, 2007, p. 317). Mentor did not just teach Telemachus—he  guided him through the actions needed to resist his father’s enemies.  The counseling mentor becomes an informal teacher, moving knowledge into  action. This may be done in a number of informal activities such as  presenting or writing together (Corey et al., 2010). Briggs and Pehrsson (2009) strongly support the concept of research mentorship for pre-tenure faculty. This mentor has two functions:  relational (role-modeling and developmental issues) and instructional  (research development and career issues). Briggs and Pehrsson found that guidance in the promotion and tenure process was the type of help most often received from the mentor, followed by writing help and career  advice. The lowest rate of mentor help was in research methodology, data  analysis, and ethics (integrity). Certainly, the case can be made that the integrity issue should be the first in priority for the mentor. The Roman goddess Vesta (Hestia if you are Greek) was the deity who  presided over sacred wisdom and the hearth. In public life, she was the protectress of the state. She was symbolized by a flame (the flame or torch in many university emblems represent Hestia and her wisdom). As  the keeper of the flame, she preserved the state and the institutions of  society. As long as her flame endured, the state would survive. As you grow and develop as a supervisor (mentor), you become the keeper of the flame of counseling professionalism. As long as you help maintain the  flame, the profession survives. References Bernard, J. M., & Goodyear, R. K. (2019). Fundamentals of clinical supervision (6th ed.). Pearson. Briggs, C. A., & Pehrsson, D. E. (2009). Research mentorship in counselor education. Counselor Education and Supervision, 48(2), 101–113. Corey, G., Haynes, R., Moulton, P., & Muratori, M.

For this discussion post, address the following: Several models of supervisor development are presented by Bernard and Goodyear in your  Fundamentals of Clinical Supervision text. Does one model stand out over the others for you? How is your selection congruent with the philosophy of supervision you are developing for the Personal Supervision Philosophy  Paper? Discuss your thoughts on lifetime supervision, as practiced in Great Britain. As you look forward to your future as a supervisor, how will you try to bring mentoring into your supervisory role?

·  In a short paper (1-2 pages) write about which approach to personality(psychoanalytic approach, trait approach, biological approach, humanistic approach, behavioral/social learning approach, and cognitive approach) best helps us to understand the personality construct you chose, and WHY. Use three academic sources to support your position. ·  Create a 1 page (about 10 questions) personality test for your construct, based on that same approach to personality (i.e., if you think that the psychoanalytic approach best helps us to understand “vanity” then create a personality test “How vain are you?” based on that same approach. Please note that you should include a way to score your test (e.g., if you score 70 points out of 70 on a vanity test, you should explain what this means) ·  In a 1-page reflection, outline which approach do you feel has best helped you understand yourself, and why. Other important things: ·  Use your notes and three other sources (preferably journal articles, but books are allowed). ·  You must submit the paper in APA. You do NOT need an abstract, but you DO need a title page, in-text citations that match your reference list, and a reference list.

Read the following vignette about a child with ADHD and answer each of the three questions at the end: Scott is 8 years old. At 7 AM, his mother looks into Scott’s bedroom and sees Scott playing. “Scott, you know the rules: no playing before you are ready for school. Get dressed and come eat breakfast.” Although these rules for a school day have been set for the past 7 months, Scott always tests them. In about 10 minutes, he is still not in the kitchen. His mother checks his room and finds Scott on the floor, still in his pajamas, playing with miniature cars.  Ten minutes later, Scott bounds into the kitchen, still without socks and shoes, and hair tousled. “You forgot your socks, and your hair isn’t combed,” his mother reminds him. “Oh yeah. What’s for breakfast?” he says. “Scott, finish dressing first.” “Well, where are my shoes?” “By the back door where you left them.” This is the specially designated place where Scott is supposed to leave his shoes so he doesn’t forget. Scott starts toward his shoes but spots his younger sister playing with blocks on the floor. He hurries to her. “Wow, Amy, watch this—I can make these blocks into a huge tower, all the way to the ceiling.” He grabs the blocks and begins to stack them higher and higher. “Scott makes a better tower than Amy,” he chants. Amy shrieks at this intrusion, but she is used to Scott grabbing things from her. The shriek brings their mother into the room. She notices Scott’s feet still do not have socks and shoes. “Scott, get your socks and shoes on now and leave Amy alone!” “Where are my socks?” he asks. “Go to your room and get a clean pair of socks and brush your teeth and hair. Then come eat your breakfast or you’ll miss the bus.” What sort of problems would you expect Scott to have at school?  What are some teachings you might provide for this parent? What interventions would give Scott the best chance of having positive outcomes?  For more information on ADHD read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attention_deficit_hyperactivity_disorder

 Topic:    The relationship between social judgment and aggressive behavior in children Summarizing articles  The PromptPurpose: Once we’ve chosen our academic articles that will support our claims for our final paper, we need to be able to accurately summarize these articles. Thus, this activity will allow you to think about what you need to include in your summary of the article and what is not necessary based on what your argument is. The task itself: Write out the topic of your final paper. This can be a modification of what you had written in paper activity 4.1, or another topic if you decide to change it. Locate one of your academic articles for your final paper, copy and paste the abstract into this activity, and include the APA formatted citation for it. This can be the same article as in Paper Activity 4.1 or a new one. I would suggest a new one, so that you have already evaluated one academic article, and now will have a summary of a second one. Summarize your article in a paragraph, making sure to put it in your own words (not just copying the abstract). Make sure to include enough relevant detail that someone who has not read the article (ex. me) will know what the article was about. In addition, make sure that your writing is readable, and not too complex. Avoid any quotes in your summary. Reflect on the summary you wrote. Include answers to the questions below. Reflection  Who did you have in mind as your audience (Ex. was it a peer, a parent, health professionals)? How would your summary change with a different audience?  What information did you choose to exclude and WHY?  What about your summary went well?  What could you improve upon?  Rubric Accuracy of the summary based on academic article Evidence:  Relevance of evidence chosen Clarity of the evidence Personal reflection Exceeds Expectations Acceptable Needs Improvement Accuracy The summary accurately presents the main claims of the journal article and demonstrates how the evidence supports the claims.  The summary demonstrates an understanding of the key claims of the article but may have some parts that are inaccurate or subjective.  The summary may provide a list of points rather than any sense of a larger claim supported by reasons and evidence. Choice of evidence Choice of details maximizes understanding; unnecessary details omitted Enough critical details presented for understanding, unnecessary details generally omitted Some critical details missing, unnecessary details may be present Clarity Overall purpose, methods, results and conclusions of the study clearly stated; seemingly effortless and seamless logical flow Purpose, methods, results and conclusions clearly stated; most of the presentation flows logically Major sections missing or lack of logical flow Personal reflection The reflection moves beyond simple description of the experience to an analysis of how the experience contributed to student understanding of self, others, and/or course concepts. The reflection demonstrates student attempts to analyse the experience but analysis lacks depth.  Reflection may focus only on the simple description of the experience and lacks evaluation.  For more information on Aggressive Behavior read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aggressive_Behavior
