This book features contributions from experts recognized as leaders in counselor education, group work, and online instruction. More than 25 activities are described in detail. They are appropriate for a wide range of counselor education courses, including classes focusing on diversity, group counseling, legal and ethical issues, assessment and research methods, human development, helping relationships, clinical experiences, and more. Each activity includes goals and learning objectives, suggested courses for use, estimated time length, and technology requirements. In addition, each activity contains detailed directions, suggested processing questions, and potential issues and concerns."--Provided by publisher.
