Resources for school counselors and counselor educators: The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research

The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research (CSCOR CSCOR Center for Sponsored Coastal Ocean Research ) was founded in January January: see month.  2003 to provide leadership in promoting quality school counseling research and to give practicing school counselors A school counselor is a counselor and educator who works in schools, and have historically been referred to as "guidance counselors" or "educational counselors," although "Professional School Counselor" is now the preferred term.  ready access to relevant research in order for them to make effective program decisions. CSCOR currently is the foremost national research facility supporting the school counseling profession. It sponsors the activities of the National Panel for School Counseling Evidence-Based Practice, conducts major outcome research studies, develops and disseminates outcome measures, reviews the research literature, and conducts yearly leadership academies about issues in evidence-based practice. CSCOR disseminates its work broadly through its Web site and listserv.

 and planned comprehensive school counseling program that utilizes what is known about effective interventions and practice. The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research (CSCOR) was founded in January 2003 to give practicing school counselors ready access to the relevant research in order for them to make effective program decisions. This article details the work of CSCOR, our efforts to date, and plans for the future.

 movement to standards-based education and related school reform efforts have generated increased accountability demands, greater awareness of achievement gaps and educational inequities, high-stakes testing A high-stakes test is an assessment which has important consequences for the test taker. If the examinee passes the test, then the examinee may receive significant benefits, such as a high school diploma or a license to practice law. , and many changes in educational practice. The premise of school reform is that all students can achieve if they are held to high standards, have access to quality teachers and curricula, are adequately supported, and are assessed on a regular basis to ensure academic progress (House & Hayes Hayes, river, c.300 mi (480 km) long, rising in a lake NE of Lake Winnipeg, central Manitoba, Canada, and flowing NE to Hudson Bay. It was the chief route used by Hudson's Bay Company traders from Hudson Bay to Lake Winnipeg and the interior; York Factory, an , 2002). Whether or not one agrees with all of the reasons for or outcomes of this change, it is clear that standards-based education is here to stay.

Initially school reform had less impact on school counselors than on other school professionals, and all too often counselors were not very involved in the changes that were occurring. As the Education Trust Transforming School Counseling Initiative (Education Trust, 2005) has pointed out, school counselors are mostly absent from the school reform literature, and thus the tremendous positive potential of school counselors has been underutilized in reform efforts (House & Martin, 1998). Increasingly, school counselors are realizing that they are ideally situated to serve as advocates for student achievement and to be leaders in the efforts to close achievement gaps (American School Counselor Association [ASCA ASCA American School Counselor Association
ASCA Australian Shepherd Club of America
ASCA Arab Society of Certified Accountants
ASCA American Swimming Coaches Association

The recent advent of the No Child Left Behind Act The No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (Public Law 107-110), commonly known as NCLB (IPA: /ˈnɪkəlbiː/), is a United States federal law that was passed in the House of Representatives on May 23, 2001  (NCLB NCLB No Child Left Behind (US education initiative) , 2001) has required all school personnel, school counselors included, to demonstrate that the work they are doing is helping their school and district to meet the mandates established by this legislation. Some of the key aspects in NCLB include an increased emphasis on quantitative evaluation of academic achievement, attendance rates, graduation Graduation is the action of receiving or conferring an academic degree or the associated ceremony. The date of event is often called degree day. The event itself is also called commencement, convocation or invocation.  rates, and school safety.

There is also an increased focus on accountability, which includes sanctions Sanctions is the plural of sanction. Depending on context, a sanction can be either a punishment or a permission. The word is a contronym.

 that they are essential to creating the kinds of learning environments that support success for all students academically, socially/emotionally, and in the workplace, they need the following:

* Research demonstrating that the services they provide impact student outcomes such as achievement, safety, attendance, discipline, and postsecondary choices

* Training in the use of data and data-based program decision making

* Information about which interventions (curricular, small group, individual, systemic systemic /sys·tem·ic/ (sis-tem´ik) pertaining to or affecting the body as a whole.

* Knowledge about evaluating programs and interventions to meet accountability requirements.

The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research was designed to meet these needs, and it has as its mission "improving the practice of school counseling by developing the research base that is necessary for responsible and effective practice" (CSCOR, 2004, [paragraph] 1). CSCOR aims to provide school counseling practitioners with the tools to do the work that needs to be done and to make available supporting information about how school counseling interventions are making a difference for students.

Program evaluation is used in government and the private sector and it's taught in numerous universities.  AND RESEARCH

There are several important distinctions between research about school counseling and evaluation of school counseling programs. The primary purpose of research is to add knowledge to a field of study and to contribute to the growth of theory. The primary purpose of evaluation is to help stakeholders make judgments or decisions. Simply stated, research is intended for knowledge and program evaluation is intended for use (Fitzpatrick, Sanders San´ders

, & Worthen, 2004).

. The differing purposes of evaluation and research also impact the questions that are answered. Researchers often choose the hypotheses they are interested in investigating, while those conducting evaluation often are answering questions posed by stakeholders.

Another important distinction between evaluation and research is related to the generalizability of the results, which is the extent to which the findings are relevant in other settings. Due to the purpose of evaluation, which often involves the description of a specific program or intervention in a certain context, the results are less generalizable gen·er·al·ize

 than research findings. Because the purpose of research is to add to existing theory or knowledge, the methods employed often are designed to maximize the generalizability of the findings to many different settings. The generalizability of results also is impacted by the criteria or standards that are used. Research methodology is typically far more stringent than evaluation methodology. Research often will utilize empirical research Noun 1. empirical research - an empirical search for knowledge

 interventions and multiple sites, thereby allowing for generalizability of information for evidence-based practice. The research designs in evaluation are often less stringent and may include case studies, documentation of an intervention at a single site, quantitative or qualitative data, and local confirmation of program or intervention impact for planning and accountability.

Education reform mandates include frequent references to "scientifically based research Scientifically based research or SBR is the required standard in professional development and the foundation of academic instruction under the guidelines of No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 (NCLB).[1]

 IES, educational practice needs to be grounded in scientifically based research, which is research that involves the application of rigorous, systematic, and objective procedures in order to obtain reliable and valid knowledge relevant to educational activities and programs. This type of research involves rigorous data analyses that are adequate to test hypotheses and justify the general conclusions that are drawn. It also relies on measurement instruments and methods that provide reliable and valid data across evaluators and observers, across multiple measurements and observations, and across studies by the same or different investigators. It further requires research that uses experimental or quasi-experimental designs in which individuals, groups, programs, or activities are assigned as·sign

Given the emphasis on evidence-based practice in education, it seems crucial that the school counseling profession promote high-quality research demonstrating the impact of school counseling programs on student achievement, the achievement gap, attendance and graduation rates, and issues of school safety. It seems very realistic to expect that the school counseling profession will benefit enormously by encouraging research that establishes the effects of "standardized" programs and interventions on key student outcomes.

CONDUCTING RESEARCH

 (1998) published a thorough review of school counseling outcome research and concluded that although there are many promising findings, the current state of research in school counseling is that there are too few well-controlled studies of outcomes. There are few sources of funding for school counseling research, but to the extent possible, CSCOR is dedicated to conducting research that adds to the literature in the field.

One of the initial projects undertaken by CSCOR was a Delphi study about school counseling research. The study used an expert panel to determine the critical research questions and proposed a research agenda for the school counseling field. The results of the study were published in the journal Association of Counselor Education and Supervision (Dimmitt, Carey, McGannon, & Henningson, 2005). The CSCORWeb site has information about the Delphi study process and some of the recommendations.

Currently, CSCOR is conducting studies of two widely used career education interventions, the "Real Game Series" (2005) and "Bridges" (Bridges Transitions Inc., 2005). We hope to be able to begin publishing the results of these studies, with preliminary results made known through the Web site.

PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT RESEARCH

There are several ways that CSCOR provides school counseling practitioners and educators with information about relevant research. Five or more times a year, members of the CSCOR research listserv receive through e-mail a research brief that summarizes an important research article that pertains to school counseling practice. Recent research briefs have been about curriculum interventions, group interventions, and comprehensive school counseling programs, for example. Research that helps school counselors choose which program components and interventions most effectively and efficiently improve student outcomes has become more crucial to the field. It is our hope that the research briefs will help school counselors make informed choices about which program components and interventions most effectively and efficiently improve student outcomes, and that the briefs will help counselors become knowledgeable consumers of research.

In addition to research briefs, CSCOR publishes or reprints longer research papers called monographs on its Web site. CSCOR monographs are studies or research summaries that provide more in-depth analysis or information than can be contained in a brief or journal article. Current monographs on the CSCOR Web site are a summary of school counseling outcome research (McGannon, Carey, & Dimmitt, 2005), a longitudinal study longitudinal study

THE NATIONAL PANEL FOR SCHOOL COUNSELING EVIDENCE-BASED PRACTICE

CSCOR has organized and is supporting the National Panel for School Counseling Evidence-Based Practice (the National Panel). The National Panel is establishing the rules of evidence for determining whether a practice can be considered as evidence-based, prioritizing school counseling outcomes and measures, reviewing the outcome research literature, identifying evidence-based practices, making recommendations for needed research, and making recommendations for research training. The establishment of a professional body that is making determinations about evidence-based practice provides the school counseling field with greater internal consistency In statistics and research, internal consistency is a measure based on the correlations between different items on the same test (or the same subscale on a larger test). It measures whether several items that propose to measure the same general construct produce similar scores.  and improved external legitimacy LEGITIMACY.

The National Panel (a) provides school counselors, school leaders, policymakers, and the public with independent, unbiased information on the extent to which school counseling practices are supported by scientific information; (b) provides information to practitioners on promising practices; (c) provides school counseling researchers with suggestions about critically needed areas of inquiry; and (d) provides practitioners and researchers guidance about measurement and research methodology. The National Panel continuously reviews research literature in school counseling and related journals with the intention of locating relevant research findings wherever they exist and connecting school counseling research to the broader interdisciplinary, social science research context.

 its work through books and monographs, yearly reports at ASCA's annual national conference, yearly research review articles, and occasional comprehensive research review articles submitted to Professional School Counseling. Panel documents and reports are also available on the Center for School Counseling Outcome Research Web site (www.cscor.org).

 relationships between interventions and outcomes. Increasingly, school counseling models have emphasized the importance of systemic interventions (e.g., interventions that affect a whole school's ability to educate children). Well-controlled research that leads to causal inferences about systemic interventions is very difficult to accomplish. Nonetheless, such research is vitally important. With regard to systemic interventions, the National Panel will work both to evaluate the current state of knowledge by identifying promising practices and to facilitate the development of strong, controlled outcome research of systemic interventions.

Many forms of research and evaluation are needed in school counseling. The National Panel is primarily interested in studies that attempt to evaluate the extent to which interventions or approaches have an impact on student outcomes. Experimental and certain quasi-experimental research designs are among the most appropriate methodologies for this purpose (Shadish, Cook, & Campbell, 2002) and are the "gold standard" for determining confidence on causal relationships. At the same time, experimental and quasi-experimental studies are very difficult to implement in educational settings. There is much to be learned through "less rigorous" designs in terms of which interventions or approaches are promising. Promising practices have some empirical support to suggest the likelihood of a causal relationship to student outcomes and are excellent candidates for subsequent studies using more rigorous, controlled, experimental procedures. When possible, the National Panel will identify promising practices as well as evidence-based practices in school counseling.

PROVIDING INFORMATION ABOUT PROGRAM EVALUATION

CSCOR also is committed to providing school counseling practitioners, administrators, and educators with useful information about program evaluation. To this end, the CSCOR Web site contains well-developed surveys such as the School Counseling Activity Rating Scale, or SCARS Scars Definition

Scars are marks created during the healing of damage to the skin or tissues.

, which can help school counselors and programs determine what they are doing effectively and what they would like to be doing differently. The ASCA Implementation Readiness Instrument, which was developed by CSCOR faculty, is another survey on the Web site and can be completed electronically so that a score report can be generated by answers to the survey. The Readiness Instrument determines the extent to which a district is ready to implement the ASCA National Model[R] (2005) as determined by questions about administrator support, community understanding, counselor skills, and the like.

Additionally, CSCOR has developed a series of stakeholder stakeholder n. a person having in his/her possession (holding) money or property in which he/she has no interest, right or title, awaiting the outcome of a dispute between two or more claimants to the money or property.  perception surveys about school counselor programs, including surveys for school counselors, parents, and teachers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels. There are also perception surveys for high school students, and stakeholder surveys translated into Spanish Spanish, river, c.150 mi (240 km) long, issuing from Spanish Lake, S Ont., Canada, NW of Sudbury, and flowing generally S through Biskotasi and Agnew lakes to Lake Huron opposite Manitoulin island. There are several hydroelectric stations on the river. . These surveys are available on the CSCOR Web site.

CSCOR has developed models for district-wide school counseling program evaluations, and it has supported districts in this process. Moving toward the ASCA National Model is more easily accomplished when the strengths and needs of the existing program have been identified and addressed.

A future goal for CSCOR is to provide practitioners with more evaluation instruments, and with lists of instruments that have been determined to have reliability and validity for measuring school counseling-related outcomes.

PROVIDING SUPPORT IN DATA ANALYSIS

In order for school counselors to more easily analyze their program or school data, CSCOR has supported the development and dissemination dissemination Medtalk The spread of a pernicious process–eg, CA, acute infection Oncology Metastasis, see there  of EZAnalyze, a free software program that can be added into Microsoft Excel (tool) Microsoft Excel - A spreadsheet program from Microsoft, part of their Microsoft Office suite of productivity tools for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh.

. It is available through the CSCOR Web site (http://www.umass.edu/schoolcounseling/ links.htm) or at www.EZAnalyze.com.

DEVELOPING SCHOOL COUNSELORS' EXPERTISE

A fundamental goal of CSCOR is to help all school counselors develop the needed skills in order to develop and evaluate high-quality school counseling programs. To this end, we have held School Counseling Leadership Institutes (SCLIs) for 75-100 school counselors and educators every summer since 2003.

CSCOR currently has an online course about college counseling and is planning to develop several 1- to 3-credit Web-based graduate courses on topics such as using data to guide program planning, evaluating programs and interventions, and evidence-based curriculum interventions.

The CSCOR Web site also contains links to related Web sites and reference materials. It is our aim to continue to add materials, links, research, and relevant information that are useful in our goal of developing the school counseling profession.

CONCLUSION

In order for the crucial role that school counselors can play in supporting student achievement and closing the achievement gap to be recognized and acknowledged, the field needs strong research and evaluation that demonstrate this fact to stakeholders. The Center for School Counseling Outcome Research is dedicated to improving the practice of school counseling by disseminating relevant research findings; supporting the National Panel for School Counseling Evidence-Based Practice; providing resources and training to develop counselor expertise in research, program evaluation, and data use; and conducting research.
