Qualitative Phase Case study

At the start of the study, at total of 150 students were identified as potential participants

According to the course syllabus we were introduced to the techniques of psychological research. This course was able to provide an understanding of how research is done, and what methods we can use to do so. By having a clear understanding of research and techniques used, it allows us to communicate effectively in regards to ideas behind the research process. In this paper, I will use myself as the case study to examine exactly what I learned about research.

The Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) of 2004 has several different procedure and document that are to be followed when assessing individuals for a special education program. In Guiberson's (2009) research he suggests that some educators may be unprepared to work with diverse student populations. In a 200 participant survey of speech pathologist a study found that a third of the participants did not have sufficient training in multicultural issues (Guiberson, 2009). Studies have shown that students that learn in educational environment that reflect their cultural background tend to achieve more academically, which make multicultural instruction important in school with diverse populations (Ornstein & Levine, 2007). Guiberson's

Special education is a program that is designed for students who are mentally, physically, socially, and/or emotionally delayed. Both cultural diversity and linguistic diversity play a role special education. Due to lack of education and misconceptions, students of diverse cultures and who speak a different language other than English are being placed in special education classes. Because a student is from a different culture or does not speak English does not make them disabled. Students who are of different cultures should not be viewed differently. They are still human, but are of a different culture. When teachers are presented with students of diverse cultures, it is important that teacher has open communication with both the parents and

D: The client discussed interest in living in an Oxford house after his release from PWC ADC (6/19). The client stated that if he was released from PWC ADC today, he would not return or violate probation. The client discussed that being on probation is not an issue for him because he learned from his mistakes and is confident that he can remain sober long-term.

Research in this article was directed towards using effective culturally responsive principles for students with learning disabilities (LD) in an educationally setting. Utley, Obiakor, and Bakken (2011) have noted that schools are changing which requires new teaching skills that teachers have to acquire in order to successfully teach culturally and linguistically diverse (CLD) students with LD. Educators have not been taking into consideration how multiple cultural backgrounds and socioeconomic statuses affect learning. Based on their various backgrounds, CLD students have different learning styles than their white peers, which can result in low academics and can be referred for special education when their struggles in academics are a result of their cultural needs not being met. Mercer and Pullen (2009) reported 58% of white students have a learning disability. Hispanic and Asian students follow with 19% of the student population being diagnosed with a

The researcher randomly assigns people into three conditions. Condition A will be elementary school students that will have studied approximately 20 hours per week. Elementary students would consist of kindergarten through fifth grade inside of special educational setting. Condition B would be middle school special education students although one student will be in a resource education, which is a step away from being

An onsite research team member will be recruited to assist the PI with the study. After obtaining the permission from the special education supervisor, the PI will verbally ask staff in the special education department for voluntary assistance to conduct the study. Interested staff members will complete the IRB training. The applied behavior analyst who works at the study site has indicted interest. This person had volunteered as a team member for the pilot study, which was conducted this spring. The research team member will watch five percent of the video clips for each participant to establish inter-rater

Second in my process, I had to assess what I need to know about my audience, I learned that I needed to know a bit more about the above males and females. For example,

Yet, it is important to distinguish between negative academic outcomes due to environmental factors and actual learning or intellectual disabilities. Moreover, these factors do not justify the disproportionality, thus, many leaders suggest that the source of this misrepresentation is within the school system itself, not the students. In the specific case of learning disabilities, some experts question the validity of this condition and suggest that the real problem is that some schoolchildren are not receiving adequate academic experiences (Fletcher and Navarrete, 2003). Furthermore, test bias, conscious or unconscious bias, cultural mismatch, and racism remain regrettable but likely factors for misdiagnosis due to the lack of diversity in the teaching force and the lack of cultural responsive training (Skiba, 2013).

The computer test which distributed students into cognitive groups should employ details and examples of the test and the scoring system to clarify the fairness of the test. As for sampling, the sample size should be adequately enlarged to include an effective verbal sample; the post-secondary students are a biased group which can’t meet the variety of people. The learning module should be studied to see whether it is biased to/against any group/learning style. The

Rujis and Peetsma (2009) reported on four studies focused on the impact of including students with SEN on the academic

160-164). As per Sommers-Flanagan and Sommers-Flanagan (2008, p. 164-171), a brief summary of the concerns, a closing statement, and reassurance of the support are the few components of closing and termination. Throughout the interview a range of open, closed, and reflective questions are used (Yeung, 2008, p.19-23). Whereas the use of leading, multiple, hypothetical, and double barrelled questions should be minimised (Yeung, 2008, p.42-58).

When giving this case, allow for some initial planning and brainstorming by the candidate, but then firmly take control of each of the “modules” described below. Try to move the candidate along through each of them, since in the actual interview only those candidates that complete all of the sections will be considered to have done well. This case tests mental horsepower and the ability to move to conclusions quickly.

The studies by Chau Hsiao Lan, Tawanda Majoko, and Milsom are conducted in the context of Taiwan, Zimbabwe, and the United States respectively, which show that career counseling and the impact of ethnic discrimination are mutually exclusive events. There are a number of shared problems associated with the counseling of students who have learning disabilities, including the lack of training of the counselors, inappropriate policies, and the negative attitude of stockholders towards the counseling programs. Lan argues and Levinson & Palmer are prone towards the fact that the problems of the SEN students are different from that of general education students. Therefore, the approaches for both must be different. All of these perspectives matter as they serve as independent variables for effective counseling for the SEN students.
