Book Description
Talking with Students in Conflict: Life Space Crisis Intervention-Third Edition offers professionals and parents a brain-based, trauma-informed, relationship-building set of skills to turn problem situations into learning opportunities for young people who exhibit challenging behaviors in schools, communities, and in the home. This book offers a six-stage verbal framework to de-escalate youth crisis situations, foster self-awareness and insight in young people, improve their social-emotional skills, and bring about long-term behavioral change. The result is stronger adult-child connections, better emotional regulation, improved peer relationships, lower suspension rates, and fewer juvenile justice system referrals.LSCI skills are important because they enable any caring adult to step into a young person's life space-the heat of a stressful moment-and intervene effectively. The six-stage LSCI process helps adults de-escalate the emotional intensity of a crisis, gain an understanding of the conflict from the young person's point of view, offer new ways to think about the incident, and ultimately promote the youth's personal responsibility for behavior.This book is a must-have for educators, school administrators, counselors, psychologists, mental health workers, social workers, juvenile justice workers, paraprofessionals, and anyone working with children and adolescents who exhibit challenging behaviors.This revised edition features dozens of brand-new examples of the use of LSCI with children and adolescents from diverse backgrounds and in a variety of settings. The authors share suggestions for applying LSCI skills in real life and offer troubleshooting guidelines to make LSCI work in even the most challenging of circumstances. This edition features all new applications of LSCI skills, including as a tool with staff who inadvertently perpetuate conflicts with students, as a group intervention for building social-emotional skills, as a way to change passive aggressive behavior, and as a parenting strategy.

Book Description
The first Canadian text of its kind, Right Here, Right Now: Exploring Life Space Interventions for Children and Youth provides students with the tools they need to apply life-space intervention concepts to real-life situations. Right Here, Right Now provides a theoretical and practical exploration of life-space intervention as the central concept in working with children and youth in the 21st century. Kiaras Gharabaghi and Carol Stuart argue for an updated concept of life space to reflect changes in social conventions, technology, and our evolving cultural diversity by emphasizing four dimensions of life-space: physical, virtual, mental, and relational. Employing the language of social pedagogy, Gharabaghi and Stuart argue that life-space intervention is about promoting the process of learning for young people. Right Here, Right Now ties together theoretical and practical elements into a unified argument about the pedagogic character of life-space intervention.

Space, Site, Intervention
Author: Erika Suderburg
Publisher: U of Minnesota Press
ISBN: 9780816631599
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 392
Book Description
From Ferdinand Chevel's Palais Ideal (1879-1905) and Simon Rodia's Watts Towers (1921-1954) to Ant Farm's Cadillac Ranch (1974) and Richard Serra's Tilted Arc (1981), installation art has continually crossed boundaries, encompassing sculpture, architecture, performance, and visual art. Although unique in its power to transform both the site in which a work is constructed and the viewer's experience of being in a place, installation art has not received the critical attention accorded other art forms. In Space, Site, Intervention, some of today's most prominent art critics, curators, and artists view installation art as a diverse, multifaceted, and international art form that challenges institutional assumptions and narrow conceptual frameworks. The contributors discuss installation in relation to the genealogy of modern art, community and corporate space, multimedia cyberspace, public and private ritual, the gallery and the museum, public and private patronage, and political action. This ambitious volume focuses on issues of class, sexuality, cultural identity rase, and gender, and highlights a wide range of artists whose work is often marginalized by mainstream art history and criticism. Together, the essays in Space, Site, Intervention investigate how installation resonates within modern culture and society, as well as its ongoing influence on contemporary visual culture.

Assessing Family Relationships
Author: Theresa A. Beeton
Publisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1351007505
Category : Family & Relationships
Languages : en
Pages : 281
Book Description
Assessing Family Relationships shows mental health professionals how to utilize the Family Life Space Drawing (the FLSD), a family assessment tool that incorporates information from multiple family members while building connections between the clinician and the client. In this manual, Theresa A. Beeton and Ronald A. Clark demonstrate the usefulness of the FLSD in both family and couple counseling. As a task-centered assessment tool, the FLSD enables an interactive and personalized process of counseling, which helps individuals to express concerns and information about themselves in an indirect and nonthreatening manner. Chapters are illustrated throughout with case studies and drawings adapted from the authors’ own clinical experience, and the manual offers an overview of the history of the FLSD, as well as where future research is headed. Providing a practical explanation of how to complete the FLSD process, Assessing Family Relationships will be highly relevant to couple and family therapists, as well as clinical social workers, who are interested in updating their practice with innovative family assessment research and techniques.
