In this consensual qualitative research study, we explored how school counselors enact multicultural education behaviors by studying the experiences of 10 practicing school counselors. We also examined barriers that prevent school counselors from implementing multicultural education. Participants described acknowledging their contexts, being influenced by intrapersonal factors and awareness of others, and implementing different types of interventions. We discuss implications for practicing school counselors to navigate barriers and enact multicultural education in their schools.

Students in a master’s-level graduate course in school counseling program evaluation conducted a qualitative research study to investigate school counselors’ experiences with evidence-based program delivery and evaluation. We discuss the study’s findings that illuminated themes of challenges faced by school counselors with implications for evidence-based practice. The abbreviated methodology used in this study showed promise for school counselors in the field to conduct qualitative action research that may demonstrate adequate trustworthiness and credibility.

The purpose of our study was to explore the experiences of school counselors during the 2015 South Carolina “1,000-year flood.” We used consensual qualitative research methodology and identified seven domains that described the participants’ personal and professional experiences during and after the flood. We also identified the actions they took within their school system to respond to the aftermath of the flood. We discuss findings and implications for school counselors and school counselor educators.

This qualitative research study explored the development and sustainability of a regional school counseling leadership team (RSCLT) organized by district school counselor supervisors. Four supervisors participated in two rounds of individual interviews. The data revealed five themes: (a) experience as chair; (b) leadership representation and structure; (c) resources, policies, and procedures; (d) professional development; and (e) university collaborations. Findings indicate that an RSCLT provides support for ongoing, meaningful, productive regional professional development for school counselors and assists smaller districts with limited resources. We discuss implications for school counselors and district school counselor supervisors.

The central goal of this qualitative research study was to uncover major implicit assumptions that students with different levels of training in the discipline apply when thinking and making decisions about chemical reactions used to make a desired product. In particular, we elicited different ways of conceptualizing why chemical reactions happen (chemical causality), how these processes occur (chemical mechanism), and how they can be controlled (chemical control). In each of these areas we characterized conceptual modes with different explanatory power and explored how they were applied by participants when facing different types of questions. Our findings suggest potential paths in the development of understanding about chemical reactions in the context of making specific substances. Our study also highlights the benefits of analyzing students' understanding not only by focusing on implicit cognitive elements, but by using disciplinary crosscutting concepts as lenses of analysis.
