If a student feels uncomfortable with the idea that he has to follow some counselor sessions, he should think this way: "positive effects of receiving personal counseling suggest that any counselor in training would benefit from the experience, which is consistent with personal counselling requirements instituted by many programs nationwide" (Mancillas, Adriea).
The newest methods in Counselor Programs are the ones who have a technological base: "Counselor educators can promote pedagogical principles of active learning through these technological methods [...] Course website, Presentations with Graphic Software Packages, Movie Clips, Videoconferencing, Video Taping in Observation Lab (Baggerly, J.)
Following the same line, a Practicum CD-Rom appeared as a guidance to an online Counselor Program: "The purpose of the Practicum CD-ROM is to help orient practicum students to the clinical practicum site, its policies and procedures, documentation and assessment, clinical training and resources, and the internship process" (Daire, a.P. & Rasmus, S).
Technology is very important these days, and it will continue to become more and more important in developing new teaching methods: "Technology will continue to play a more significant role in the counseling profession thereby revolutionizing the counseling supervision process"(Watson, J.C.).
As a proof to the online method success, a student declares that: "The most challenging was probably getting over my own inhibitions about self-disclosing... giving myself permission to trust someone enough to share openly and honestly, and allowing myself to be supported" (Huang-Nissen, L., Lin, G., Lee, C., 1999).
You can find many ways to cope with anxiety of evaluation tests, some tips being found here http://www.unt.edu/unt-dallas/campuslife/anxiety.pdf.
For preventing anxiety, it is important that the students are correctly informed about the program they are going to take, about the classes and their significance and importance and about the final testing and the students fear regarding this matter, which can become, during the program, a subject that stops the student from reaching performance. "Therefore, if instructors can eliminate the source for their failure -- examination, students at least can focus more on learning rather than outcome evaluation" (Pan, Wei & Tang, Mei, 2005)
The teachers have to be very open to students' problems that can appear during a counsellor program, because the safety of a support from their part can mean more than a family support for once, because teachers are seen as the actual persons the students wish to become. "Availability of assistance is important because knowing they can ask for help any time, students will not feel frustrated when they are stuck." (Pan, Wei & Tang, Mei, 2005). The same advice teachers get from the author Ronkowski, who has a tip for teachers "let them discuss their feelings and thoughts. Often this alone relieves a great deal of pressure; reassure when appropriate; remain calm; be clear and explicit" (Ronkowski, S.).
The teacher's...

De-Stressing the Stress From Math Arithmetic is a core rudiment of academia and spells academic and vocational success for many. Even those who do not need skill in arithmetic to progress with their career do need high grades in arithmetic to succeed in school. Unfortunately, for many, these high grades are almost unobtainable by the debilitating presence of math anxiety. Math anxiety is, in fact, so common that there is even
The shift toward standardized testing has failed to result in a meaningful reduction of high school dropout rates, and students with disabilities continue to be marginalized by the culture of testing in public education (Dynarski et al., 2008). With that said, the needs of students with specific educational challenges are diverse and complex, and the solutions to their needs are not revealed in the results of standardized testing (Crawford &

The Middle East female is more organized and managed than Middle East male. She keeps friends and studies close. She has a proper timetable for herself and gives extra hours in library if necessary.

Beck Anxiety Inventory Test The Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI) test was created by Dr. Aaron T. Beck and other colleagues, and is a 21-question multiple-choice self-report inventory that is used for measuring the extent and intensity of an individual's anxiety. The items describe anxiety on four different ways: (1) Subjective (e.g., "unable to relax"), (2) neurophysiologic (e.g., "numbness or tingling"), (3) autonomic (e.g., "feeling hot") or (4) panic-related (e.g., "fear of losing control."

In fact university education is starting to be seen as a hallmark for success, even though there are college drop
Math Anxiety I did not realize before that I had any feelings of anxiety related to the subject of mathematics. Math is not the most difficult subject although certainly it can be challenging. Yet, my writing indicates that I do feel math-related anxiety which therefore need to be better understood. From early on, I knew that math was not my favorite subject. For many people math is difficult, primarily because it
