Structural Intervention

As social workers, it is important to study the entire aspect of the individual. We must examine the individual past and see if their condition is trauma-related. It is the job of the social worker to identify the issue, in this case it would be a person who suffers from a mental illness and is placed in isolation when in jail or person and find the best solution for that issue. The solution to the issue may not be what’s written in a handbook or what we were thought, but sometimes we must find alternate resolutions. While we may not have the answers to combat the issue; if as social workers we could find the root cause of the issue that may help in the intervention process.

This paper will examine organizational structures, organizational systems and how organizational culture influences both structure and systems. Throughout this paper, there will an analogy to the human body to help further the understanding of the concepts of structure and systems in an organization. This analogy is based on the academic work of Goold and Campbell (Goold & Campbell, 2002). The first part of this paper will review different organizational structures. The second part will look at various organizational systems and how they may be

Response to intervention is a researched based intervention process that involves the instruction to be based off data collected in order to increase a students rate of learning. RTI is school wide and includes a multi-level system for instruction to prevent the students from failing. After intervention are put in place students are monitored for progress. Interventions can be Tier 1 (differentiated instruction in the classroom), Tier 2 (may be in the general education classroom, but may be other places), or Tier 3 ( out side of the general education classroom).

Integrating organizational development (OD) and technological intervention into a total system is one of the more difficult tasks for an executive or consultant to execute. Organizations are profoundly affected by technological advancements and require a flexible customized change model to fit the social network of the specific organization into which technology is being introduced. Examines socio-technical systems (STS) theory and presents classical organization theories of Burns and Stalker, Woodward, Perrow, Thompson, and

There is a need to have the technical organization of work, in that there is the need for construction of tasks and productivity. When there is a professional organization of work, there is a likelihood of better results, and thus there will be a possibility of social change at work.

As a result, he saw that it is necessary to have social structure at work to avoid conflicts thus leading in better

Children with disabilities and delays often make the greatest improvements in development when they receive effective early intervention programs. These children are entitled to specialized services and intervention as mandated by the Individuals with Disabilities Education ACT (IDEA) (Peterson, 2010). IDEA governs how states and public agencies provide early intervention and special education services to young infants through older youth (U.S. Department of Education). Part C of IDEA mandates that beginning at birth, children and their families up to age two are entitled to early intervention services individualized to meet their specific needs. These services are guided by an Individualized Family Service Plan (IFSP) (Peterson, 2010). Part

The average development of kindergarten aged children, according to John W. Santrock (2015), occurs in every area; the physical level is characterized, biologically and physically by the growth and expansion of the brain. The brain of five years-old children is three quarters of its adult size; the gray matter increases, as well as the front lobe areas giving the child ability to better plan and organize new ideas and actions. A great growth in dendrites connections with each other and "myelination" takes place, which means thousands of cells in the brain of a child are able to efficiently respond to stimuli in a matter of seconds. Likewise, the typical weight of a child between 3 and 6 years of age increases approximately 5-7 pounds, and grows 2-3 inches per year. Other manifestations of physical growth: he now has all 20 primary teeth after three years, has 20/20 vision, and eye-hand coordination at age four; and has a night sleep of 11-13 hours, usually without a nap during the day.

The interventions provided to “Precious” are based on her needs as an individual with the proper cultural consideration. The interventions chosen are to provide her with proper services that focuses on the two main presenting problems: Abuse and Self-image.

A Response to intervention (RTI) is an integrated multi-tier instruction that can identify can provide a child that is progressing that is effortful. Interventions can be provided as the needed either academically or behavior modifications and accommodations. Seventh grade Language Arts Teacher, Teresa Langer of Robert J. Elkington Middle School provides unique opportunities that will continuously promote a child’s progress. Many times when a student is having academic or behavioral problems subtle modification could remedy it. Langer has stated that “seat changes, verbal redirection, behavior referrals to the assistant principal, etc.)” Is part of the first tier and some students are receptive to this change. If this is ineffective, Robert

Many different methodologies have been proposed over the years to try and create the proper interventions and plans related to health systems. Some have worked better than others, but in the end, it is clear that a lot of work still has to be done.

Change has become necessary for every organisation there is. World is moving rapidly towards better technologies, efficient systems, new techniques, compact profits, different friendlier environments and organisations are always in the race to reach new heights by thriving effectively in this competitive environment (Kotter, 1996).

The concept of sociotechnical systems was created in the 1960’s as a part of organizational development research by E. Trist and F. Emery. Ranging from a small system between you and your phone, to the interaction between human behaviors with massive technical infrastructures society has developed in hopes to boost performance and quality for both the societal and technical side of the system (Fischer).
