One of the most important functions of the school counselor is to prepare students for key transitions – from one grade to the next, from one level to the next, and ultimately out of P-12 education to post-secondary opportunities.
This assignment provides you with the opportunity to design and develop a transition program, which would be part of your comprehensive school counseling program. You will create a PowerPoint presentation that outlines a program aimed at increasing the ability of students to manage and successfully navigate the transition.
For this assignment, you will choose one of three hypothetical roles. The entire assignment will be completed from the perspective of the role you select.
Roles and Settings (Select 1):
Create a PowerPoint presentation that outlines a transition program you would facilitate for one of the scenarios above. Imagine that you are creating the PowerPoint for presentation at a faculty meeting. The purpose of the presentation is to describe the services you would provide directly to the students to support their transition as well as the indirect services and support you would provide to support students successfully managing the transition.
The slides themselves should appear as they would for your intended audience. Use the PowerPoint Notes feature to expand on the information on each slide and include references from the literature to support your work.
Ensure the following components are included in your presentation:
Remember: Direct services are the school counseling core curriculum, individual student planning, and responsive services (e.g., individual and small group counseling). Indirect services are referrals, consultation, and collaboration.
Submit your PowerPoint presentation as an attachment to this assignment in the submission area for your instructor to review.
Refer to the School Transition Programs Scoring Guide for the grading criteria for this assignment. Use the scoring guide as a self-assessment tool and as a checklist for ensuring that you have fulfilled all the requirements.
