“…These methods should include curriculum development, planning, and delivery, as well as various effective classroom guidance activities for promoting career development. Some activities that have been highlighted in the professional literature include Beale's (2003) restaurant activity that teaches career competencies through pantomime and role play, and Gibson's (2005) recommendation of using career genograms to explore parental expectations and role models that impact career choice. School counselor educators can offer guidance on the process of creating a career education curriculum for classroom guidance by highlighting the role that childhood career development theory plays in understanding the various needs of students over the lifespan.…”

Career development at the elementary level is an important developmental function to ensure all students graduate college and career ready. However, the training and continuing education needs of elementary school counselors have been largely ignored in the professional literature and in training programs. This article explores the theoretical and empirical support for career development at the primary level and the challenges in training elementary school counselors. Recommendations for modifications to school counselor educator programs are offered, and future research and continuing education needs for school counselors are explored.

“…This visual allows professionals to see generational patterns within family systems (Altshuler, 1999;Dunn & Levitt, 2000;Halevy, 1998;Kuehl, 1995;Magnuson & Shaw;Wiggins-Frame, 2001). Counselors may use genograms to assess career choices (Gibson, 2005), spirituality (Hodge, 2001), culture (Estrada & Haney, 1998;Hardy & Laszloffy, 1995;Watts-Jones, 1997), and solutions (Kuehl, 1995) found in the immediate and extended family. Genograms may foster engagement and rapport between student and counselor (Altshuler, 1999).…”

Professional school counselors, school psychologists, and other professionals working in K‐12 settings have a complex job of meeting the needs of all students. Often, referral to outside counseling is necessary; however, an effective and comprehensive counseling model advocates for school mental health professionals to employ a wide variety of techniques to ensure equitable distribution of services to all students and their families. This article explores using family assessment tools to support both students' academic achievement and their families within a school context. A case study illustrates how a professional school counselor could employ and collaborate with family assessment tools to support the student, family, and school systems. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

“…It has been shown that career interventions do appear to have some impact on the career awareness and exploratory behaviors of children (Gibson, 2005;Lapan, 2004;Magnuson & Starr, 2000;Schultheiss, 2005;Wood & Kaszubowski, 2008).

Although research acknowledges the importance of the formative years of childhood in career development, there is a disconnection between theory and practice in elementary school counseling settings. This study compared a web-based career guidance intervention with a traditional career guidance intervention by measuring the effects each one has on the career development progression of 4th-and 5thgrade students. Using a pretest−posttest comparison group experimental design, the authors randomly assigned students to either the experimental group (web-based) or the comparison group (traditional). Results showed significant interactions between group and time for 2 of the 4 subscales examined in the study. Research implications and best practices for infusing career development interventions into the elementary school counseling curriculum are discussed.
