Praxis, or reflective action, is at the heart of the program planning process. Planners are involved in a continual process of constructing and deconstructing planning activities, reflecting upon these activities, and renegotiating and analyzing these activities. The praxis model presented in this paper fosters a spirit of critical reflection and action in the planning process. It also recognizes that those involved in program planning come to appreciate that values, beliefs, ideologies, and contextual factors are not only constructed, but are also culturally transmitted, provisional, and relative. This awareness facilitates their challenge of the taken-for-grantedness of institutional settings within which program planning is practised, relationships are mediated, and political and economic agendas dominate.

Students With Ebd

Self-advocacy skills enable active student involvement in the Individualized Education Program planning process. However, some students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) lack appropriate self-advocacy skills and may require specific instruction in how to prepare for and participate in their own IEP. Special educators may have limited knowledge and skills to foster the self-advocacy skills of students with EBD. Therefore, this article focuses on a research-based strategy, the Self-Advocacy Strategy (SAS), that can be used by educators to effectively promote students’ self-advocacy skills. Research support and a detailed overview and guidelines on how educators can implement the SAS in their classrooms are included.

Purpose This paper aims to investigate employee well-being in relation to office landscapes in a post-relocation context. The aims are to identify spatial attributes of the office landscape that influence employee well-being and underlying contextual factors that explain employee well-being post-relocation. Design/methodology/approach A mixed-method approach was adopted. The data collection involved 16 semi-structured interviews with employees, an interview with the leading architect of the office renovation, study of a dossier on the renovation project and observations. Findings Most of the informants experienced the new office landscape positively despite few shortcomings. Spatial attributes were identified that influenced the informants’ well-being positively in terms of affects, satisfaction, social relations and environmental mastery. Conversely, negative influences on well-being were also reported regarding affects, satisfaction and environmental mastery. Conflicting views on some of the spatial attributes and contextual factors related to the planning process and the former office landscape were identified. Originality/value The value of this paper lies in investigating the office landscape at the spatial attributes level, despite office type, and their influence on hedonic and eudaimonic components of employee well-being. The research approach adopted proved its usefulness for in-depth studies of the interrelations between office landscapes and employee well-being.

Specific Concept

A comprehensive community alcoholism program can become viable regardless of the manner in which it is formed, the agencies that may be involved and the number of different sub-systems of service that need to be developed only if there is an effective cohesion of these elements. In this paper, the third in a series on alcoholism planning (1, 2), the advantages and disadvantages of four different approaches to the organization of “comprehensive” (all necessary services) community-based alcoholism services are presented. The selection of a specific concept of organization will depend upon the kinds of agencies involved, the existing services and their relationships and the particular individuals involved in the planning process. These approaches are as follows 1) the “governmental approach”; 2) the “single community agency approach”; 3) the “consortium model approach”; and 4) the “for profit approach”. Regardless of which approach is chosen, there are certain substantive issues that transcend any and all of these organizational approaches. Without paying attention to them, those involved in planning will undermine their own ability to successfully implement the chosen organizational approach. Substantive underlying issues discussed include community boards, traditional versus non-traditional approaches to the delivery of alcoholism services, pre-program planning, continuity of care and funding. A “comprehensive” community alcoholism program which includes all services necessary for the information of a total treatment system, must become viable regardless of how it is formed or the number of agencies involved. Unless these multiple elements are integrated, service delivery will be inadequate. Consequently, the development of an administrative structure requires clearly defined lines of communication and responsibility between care-giving agencies, institutions and the community. Effective service delivery and continuity of care are directly related to the administrative structure. The specific concept of administrative organization selected will depend upon the kinds of agencies involved, existing services and their relationships and those individuals involved in the planning process.

Playground accidents are a leading cause of injury to children at school and home. Health and physical education faculty and students from a university school of education and college of nursing collaborated with wellness team members in a public school system to complete a systematic planning process. The aim was to enhance the school health program and reduce risk of injuries. University faculty mentored health and physical education students as they developed professional competencies related to program planning and advocacy. Students identified safety hazards in 52 school/community playgrounds and 45 gymnasiums, and reported maintenance issues to reduce the risk of injuries. Teachers, parents, students and community residents can learn to assess playground and gymnasium safety, identify hazards, and plan improvements to the school health environment.

Several policy aspects in the development of organic rice farming are referred to here. The first aspect; The sustainability of either the national standard or the standard operating language for organic procedures does not have legality, meaning that the government is still in the inland process for assistance that will be provided to organic farmers, both guidance and supervision as well as competent institutions that will be involved. The second aspect; Farmer group institutions have not contributed much in the planning process of organic rice farmer activities in villages and are more focused on inorganic agriculture, but on the other hand, the RPJMDes dominance has been included in the document even though the realization is still considered unsatisfactory for all parties. Prime program planning can still be improved, its coordination and scope can be expanded across SKPD networks across actors / agencies, planning program needs to support organic farming in villages and in general Bantaeng Regency.

This paper examines one university’s experience developing a campus-wide collaborative effort to celebrate Dr. Martin Luther King. Recognizing the importance of student participation on students’ sense of belonging, the program planning and events emphasized student involvement. To illustrate the importance of student belonging at the university level, we discuss the universal application of Maslow’s (1954) belonging needs. From there, we explore the theoretical literature by Cooper (2009), Tinto (1993), Astin (1993) and Bandura (1977) on student belonging within higher education. We describe the Dr. King program and analyze it at the programmatic level by applying elements of Kezar’s (2005) model of institutional collaboration in higher education. We conclude by discussing the benefits of student involvement in the planning process and as participants in the program sessions to demonstrate how institutional collaboration that encompasses true student involvement can positively impact students’ sense of belonging at the university level.
