Compose a 1250 words assignment on training and development: tbt and mentoring. Needs to be plagiarism free! The adult learning methodology is significantly different from childhood and adolescent learning techniques. For children and young adults, education is compulsory—adults have relatively free choice as to whether or not to develop themselves through post-secondary education. The term relatively is used here because, in many professions, e.g., medical, legal, and educational occupations, continuing education is a requirement. Nevertheless, many of these professionals have some degree of subject matter choice in accumulating the required number of hours for their continuing education. There are traits, however, which have been observed regarding the successful adult learner. In one study, five assumptions for the adult learner were developed to help assess the required components of the successful adult student: “…an independent self-concept [to] direct his or her own learning, [the accumulation of] a reservoir of life experiences, learning needs closely related to changing social roles, is problem-centered and interested in immediate application of knowledge and is motivated to learn by internal rather than external factors” (Merriam, 2001, p. 5). These assumptions, when true, describe the ideal adult learner who will benefit from all methods of instruction, particularly TBT and mentoring. The element of self-motivation implied in this list is significant. a company will realize considerable cost savings when selecting and retaining these individuals—they are, by definition, trainable. Even in the workplace, mandated training forced upon an unwilling or uncooperative worker will have significantly fewer results and amount to a waste of both time and money if the ability and motivation to learn and succeed are not present. On the other side of the coin, the presentation and methodology employed in educating adults are also important regardless of the career level of the student. Assisting low-income&nbsp.individuals through vocational training has proven to be beneficial, if the “programs are made intensive, close attention is paid to quality, and basic education is linked to further training and employment” (Martinson & Strawn, 2002, p. 1).

List five techniques from Gestalt therapy. Define and give an example of each.  Can you think of a way you might use this with a child or group of children? Explain the importance of “contact” in Gestalt play therapy.​ If you counsel with children, do you believe that you might use the Gestalt approach to play therapy? Explain why or why not?

This week we will look at  Gestalt. Behavioral, and Reality Counseling Theories.  Gestalt has many useful techniques.  The empty chair is a way to get a student to focus on the issues of conflict with parents or other students.  There are others that you may find useful. The idea of peeling away the layers of a person’s issues relates to the complexity of adolescents nowadays.

 

My first job as a public school teacher was in special education.  And the first time I read a behavior improvement plan, I had no idea what I was to do with it. Then in my very first counseling class, I learned about behavior counseling theory and the behavior improvement plans suddenly made sense.  Behavior theory and the process and techniques associated with it are an important part of child counseling. But, remember, it is only a part.

 

In my opinion, Reality Therapy is the most researched and commercially applied theory in counseling.  It can be used in many ways but is limited to mild to moderate mental health issues. Clients like my granddaughter who has conduct disorder with limited prosocial emotions (see DSM 5) do not respond to Reality Therapy due to the lack of conscience and remorse for hurting others.  However, among the students I see everyday, almost all of them would respond to reality therapy when applied to their presenting problems. Reality Therapy, practiced with fidelity, is very useful in counseling practice.

Create a 5 pages page paper that discusses eyewitness to a genocide: the united nations and rwanda.

Hutu leaders come to believe that Hutu rescue required Tutsi annihilation. The Hutus ratified their plots with shocking efficiency. In just one hundred days they killed approximately eight hundred thousand persons. The Rwandan mass murder, therefore, has the ghoulish oddity of more than the rate of massacre attained during this genocide. And the persons behind the Rwandan genocide employed mainly low-tech and physically demanding instruments of death that necessitated an understanding of their fatalities.

The genocide was implemented with viciousness and hostility that defy the mind’s eye.Almost as incomprehensible is the response of the global community. What sets the Rwandan crisis aside from other crisis is that the global community could have mediated at a fairly low cost prior to the results were entirely realized. A crisis conference commanded states to react. There were twenty-five hundred U.N. peacekeeping troops on the land, and certainly, later on, the slaughter started, the U.N.’s commandant, Canadian Gen.

Romeo Dallaire1, satisfied with all mod cons troop to prevent the slaughter. Yet the U.N. at once arranged its army not to save nationals from harm. And on April 21, it ordered that but 270 troops are withdrawn (Dallaire 2004, pg. 231).In the background of it, the U.N. basically overlooked both the smaller carnages held in the period of 1990-1993 and the arrangements for this unforgivable genocide. It cracked down instead on creating an end to the war between the Rwandan government and the Rwandan Patriotic Front (RPF), an objective indeed achieved in August 1993 with the signing of the Arusha Accords2.

An asset in the accord, the U.N. provided a conscientious objector force3 (UNAMIR) to ease the transition to a designated government and to supervise the integration of the Rwandan Militia with the RPF military. But the U.N. sought a shameful victory and remained unsuccessful to provide either the command required or the military services needed to make sure a timely and systematic transition.

The value of a apartment is 4 000 000. As a result of a longlasting

 

Verdien av en leilighet er 4 000 000. Som en følge av en langvarig recession the value sinks the apartment prices with 10% yearly, assume that the whole price-drop happens on the end of each year.
