Which Best Practices Will You Use Today?
For nearly two decades, NASP's Best Practices in School Psychology
volumes have served as the profession's primary reference on
the core body of knowledge regarding children's healthy learning and
development. This latest two-volume edition, Best Practices in
School Psychology IV, brings that expertise into the 21st Century
to help school psychologists successfully manage today's complex challenges
in service to students, families, and schools. BPIV updates
and expands on BPIII to reflect changes in:
- Theory, research, and practice
- Expectations and role within schools
- Needs and diversity of students, families, and educators
- Collaboration and communication with other stakeholders
- Assessment and intervention strategies
- Laws, funding, and public policy
- Mental health and education systems
- Training and professional standards
As earlier Best Practices editions did, BPIV
melds theory, research, and practice to provide a thorough yet concise
discussion of a broad range of relevant issues. Well over 100 leading
experts contributed to the 101 new or revised chapters, organized in a
functional two-volume set. Each chapter delivers an overview of an important
topic, puts it into a professional context, offers practical strategies,
and recommends additional resources. No other single resource enables
you to quickly place so many topics into perspective and competently integrate
them into your daily work.
An indispensable resource for practitioners, researchers,
trainers, and students!
