These concepts are exemplified using a case illustration comparing a professor using a traditional model of teaching and a professor using a model of teaching informed by Dewey.

Preparing Cacrep-Accredited Doctoral Students To Teach, Meredith Lt Montgomery, Mei Tang

Each strategy was reviewed and selected based on both empirical evidence and professional experience, then mapped to each specific foundation of the …

Integrating Continuous Client Feedback Into Counselor Education, Christopher D. Schmidt
Journal of Counselor Preparation and Supervision

The article provides both the reasoning behind and recommendations for integrating continuous client feedback into the curriculum of counseling programs
