VI. Course Topics

Major topics or projects will be related to the following theories and themes in individual and group

counseling and psychotherapy: psychodynamic, person-centered and existential, cognitive and

behavioral, affective humanistic/experiential and multicultural systems. Special topics may include

multicultural issues in counseling, postmodern influences, eclectic approaches vs.

integrated theories, counseling efficacy, and current theories of trauma resolution.

VII. Instructional Methods and Activities

The course will be taught in seminar fashion and include readings, discussion, research,

projects, student presentations, and examination. Activities will include the following:

1. Complete reading assignments and participate in seminar discussions.

2. Theory Presentation: Students will each present a group and individual theory in a manner

appropriate for a master’s level course session. It is expected that you will present

information, promote dialogue, and facilitate learning. Active learning exercises

are encouraged. Each session should be at least 1.5 hours. You will turn in your

preparation materials (which may include Power Point slides, handouts, activities

directions, etc.) and a theory outline by posting them to Blackboard. In addition, you

will provide 2 essay questions with grading rubric or 5 multiple choice questions

with answers provided. Assignments for presentations will occur in the first class

period.

3. Each student will evaluate each theory presentation using the form provided on

Blackboard and the syllabus. Feedback should be constructive, professional, and designed to

assist your colleagues in developing effective teaching skills. All forms will be turned in

to the instructor first, and will be distributed to presenters after review.

4. Seminal Works Facilitation: Each student will read a seminal work of their choice

for two theories covered in the course. Using Blackboard, notify the instructor of your

top four choices prior to the 2nd

class meeting, excluding the topic of your theory

presentation. Assignment of seminal works facilitation will occur in the 2nd

class.

Facilitators will review key concepts and ideas from the seminal work and

facilitate a dialogue of reactions and reflections on those ideas and how they

relate to current understanding and implementation of counseling approaches.

Students will notify professor about their reading choices the week prior to the

relevant theory.

5. Research Paper: A literature review paper, appropriate for professional

publication and using APA format must be completed. The paper should be 15-

20 pages, including bibliography, and may address either (1) a non-traditional

theoretical approach or other approach not covered in the text, including major

points of the theory, research, attention to issues of diversity, and potential

applications or (2) a specific theory covered in class, including major research

about that theoretical orientation in terms of outcome and effectiveness,

As stated in University Rule 13.02.99.C2, Student Grade Appeals, a student who believes

that he or she has not been held to appropriate academic standards as outlined in the class syllabus,

equitable evaluation procedures, or appropriate grading, may appeal the final grade given in the

course. The burden of proof is upon the student to demonstrate the appropriateness of the appeal. A

student with a complaint about a grade is encouraged to first discuss the matter with the instructor.

For complete details, including the responsibilities of the parties involved in the process and the

number of days allowed for completing the steps in the process, see University Rule 13.02.99.C2,

Student Grade appeals, and University procedure 13.02.99.C2.01, Student Grade Appeal Procedures.

These documents are accessible through the University Rules Web site at

http://www.tamucc.edu/provost/university_rules/index.html. For assistance and /or guidance in the

grade appeal process, students may contact the Office of Student Affairs.

XIII. Disabilities Accommodations

The Americans with Disabilities act (ADA) is a federal anti-discrimination statute that provides

comprehensive civil rights protection for persons with disabilities. Among other things, this

legislation requires that all students with disabilities be guaranteed a learning environment that

provides for reasonable accommodation of their disabilities. If you believe you have a disability

requiring an accommodation, please call or visit Disability Services at (361) 825-5816 in Driftwood

101. If you are a returning veteran and experiencing cognitive and/or physical access issues in the

classroom or on campus, please contact the Disability Services office for assistance at (361) 825-

Class Participation

Each person will be encouraged to participate in all learning activities. You will be provided

choices in order to address your learning style and comfort with self-disclosure. While I will

solicit input from peers regarding your contribution to group activities, you will not be evaluated

by fellow students. We will embrace a collaborative rather than a competitive model for group

interactions. Each person makes contributions; each person receives feedback and support.

Participation will be measured in the following manner. Overall class participation will be

determined by a score assigned by the instructor based upon input from the entire class and one’s

self evaluation. At the end of the course, all class members will submit a list of major

participants (at least three persons) with corresponding brief descriptions of their contributions.

The instructor will review the lists and contributions and compile anonymous feedback for

participants. Each person will score her or his own level of participation, providing a paragraph

in support of the rating. The instructor will use the self evaluation and peer input to assign a

score for participation according to the following criteria. Students can also use the attached

rubric for feedback.

40-50 points Made significant contributions and offered input during

each class meeting

30-39 points Made one or more significant contributions and

offered input during half of the class meetings

20-29 points Offered input during at least half of the class meetings

10-19 points Offered input during less than half of the class meetings

<10 points Rarely offered input during class meetings
