Anger Treatment for People with Developmental Disabilities

Anger Treatment for People with Developmental Disabilities

John L. Taylor; Raymond W. Novaco

John Wiley Sons Inc
2005
nidottu
Anger and aggression are prevalent problems among people with developmental disabilities and constitute primary reasons for them to be admitted and re-admitted to institutions. They are also a key reason for the prescribing of behaviour control and anti-psychotic medication to this client group. Stimulated by growing research in this area, mental health and criminal justice professionals have begun to see the benefits of anger assessment and cognitive-behavioural anger treatment for people with developmental disabilities. There is no prior text to guide anger treatment provision to this client group. This text presents a manual-guided cognitive-behavioural anger treatment protocol, grounded in a solid theoretical framework and empirical evidence for its efficacy in clinical practice. The assessment and treatment approach is designed to engage and motivate patients with recurrent and deep-rooted anger problems and their manifestation in serious aggressive behaviour. Accompanying the treatment protocol are a number of worksheets, handouts, and exercise sheets for clinicians and clients that can be accessed online.

Instructional Planning Systems

Instructional Planning Systems

John L. Taylor

Cambridge University Press
2009
pokkari
This book is concerned with the educational aspects of gaming simulation procedures and their application to urban studies and to the teaching of town planning. It analyses the availability and relevance of these instructional simulation techniques as a simple way of presenting, relating and manipulating many divergent observations concerning the environment and human settlement. Dr Taylor divides his book into three main sections: the first identifies the background and evolution of instructional simulation, the second examines urban development gaming's emerging importance and justification and the third reviews some of the issues that must be contemplated if the potential of gaming simulation techniques are to be fully realised. This was the first book to provide a comprehensive and authoritative review of the state of knowledge on instructional simulations relevant to urban problems. As such it will be of great interest and practical value to all those involved in urban studies and environmental planning.

Bloomsbury CPD Library: Independent Learning

Bloomsbury CPD Library: Independent Learning

John L. Taylor; Bloomsbury CPD Library

Bloomsbury Education
2018
nidottu
Independent learning is an ideal which many teachers aspire to but find difficult to achieve. This book provides ten training plans that enable you to easily deliver hours of CPD sessions in your school. All presentations and hand-outs are provided in the book and online, making Bloomsbury CPD Library: Independent Learning all you need to help your students think independently, for a richer learning experience, and to impress inspectors.It is common for school inspectors to comment on the need for students to learn more independently, and from higher education admissions officers and employers there is a constant call for students to be better equipped to be able to learn and think for themselves. Students themselves enjoy and benefit from lessons in which they are given the opportunity to begin to take charge of the learning process, particularly when there is space for them to explore and inquire into topics that grab their attention. At the same time, there is enormous pressure on schools to ‘teach to the test’, leading many teachers to feel that they have to play safe and cannot risk giving their students genuine responsibility for their own learning, lest results suffer. Critics also argue that students need to be taught directly, as the capacity for meaningful inquiry is not one that most students possess, and even when it is present, the open-ended nature of the inquiry process can make learning inefficient.In this book, John L. Taylor shows how the rhetoric about independent learning can be turned into a practical reality. The book explores the foundations of effective learning and demonstrates how it is possible to implement an approach to learning which encourages students to learn to think for themselves. It shows how by teaching students to think better, teachers can ensure that they both succeed in jumping assessment hurdles and also enjoy a richer, more meaningful educational experience.

Education's Not the Point

Education's Not the Point

John Taylor Gatto; Dorothy L Sayers; Elizabeth Y Hanson

Lost Tools Press, LLC
2024

Education's Not the Point: Why Schools Fail to Train Children's Minds and Nurture Their CharactersThese essays are a "must read" for parents concerned about their children's education. John Taylor Gatto gives some insights into the "dumbed-down" nature of modern schools, the men behind modern schooling, and why the schools are not designed to provide an "education" for our children. Dorothy Sayers concisely and humorously describes the kind of education schoolchildren should receive, so that they can think for themselves, read original sources, and formulate their own ideas. Elizabeth Hanson speaks to the traditional wisdom of delaying formal education in favor of a "heart" education, so children do not suffer from the kind of anxiety, depression and learning disorders that have become so prevalent in the post-modern world.
