Why did you select the item?
I select this item because I think that in order to provide our customers or the kids we are helping the greatest care possible, it is critical that they grasp and use the problem-solving processes. Just as in therapy, it is quite difficult to assist someone successfully if we do not fully get the purpose of the treatment or, in this case, the issue the child is presenting. This article offers a useful framework for cooperative issue solving as well as a worksheet template that both the consultant and the consultee may use.
How can the content be used, and by whom?
Both consultees and consultants can utilise this information. A parent can download the template worksheet and discuss it with their child if they visit the website. To ensure that it is used appropriately, I would advise having the school consultant complete the worksheet.
How is the item related to the course content, and how does it expand on the content?
The item pertains to the course material as Chapter 3 covers problem solving. It goes into further detail about the method and how to use it to the advantage of the kid, the consultant, and the consultees.
Is the source reliable and credible?
Yes, I believe this source is reliable and credible. It has good references and when we search further the information seems to be specifically for education for special needs. I also believe the templates included seemed accurate and useful
.
Are there any drawbacks or concerns about the item?
This article, which focuses on collaborative issue solving especially, does improve upon problem solving processes and many subcategories. The issue is that parents or other individuals may not fully comprehend and may use the template and article improperly.
