Create a career counseling program for the students in your school, what would you include in a program and how would you organize it?
This program can be for elementary school, middle school or high school.
It is acceptable here to refer to current career counseling programs to gather your ideas as long as you reference these programs in your presentation, but you also need to include some original ideas.
Diversity in Counseling, uniqueness of each group
The career counselor needs to have an understanding and awareness of the effect of diversity factors, such as multigenerational career patterns, gender, race, and ethnicity, cultures, and social economic backgrounds, on one’s access and perceptions to career opportunities and life style development.
Choose a diverse client population. Provide an explanation on what makes this group unique and how those factors affect the career counseling process.
Identify the best practices for this chosen population, explaining the career counseling process and techniques that will meet their specific needs. Provide a list of resources that could be used for the counseling process.

2. The word document attached with the feedback that was recommended. Some articles are attached that will be used for these two pages.
You will need to select a current and urgent mental health issue, u will find 4 questions within the uploaded file,choose anyone will suits u
You are encouraged to draw from the ideas that have been covered in Blocks 3 and 4 of this module’s teaching and, where possible, from the other Blocks in this Module too.
It is important to be integrative with your contemporary review so that you can show your understanding that the Blocks offer you ‘lenses’ to analyse a specific mental health issue but they are not the singular way of looking at, and tackling, the issue.
The structure of the essay should be as follows:
1) You need to identify the mental health issue and justify as to why it is deemed to be current and urgent.
2) You need to critique the key processes that are underpinning your chosen mental health issue and identify the processes that appear to be most important.
3) You need to discuss the potential interventions that could be used to address your chosen mental health issue.

2. Methods:
Who are the participants in the research study?
What kind of study is this (experiment, correlational)? How was the study conducteed?
What are the main variables (IV and DV) in this study? There may be more than one of each. If it is a correlational study, there may be several variables being observed/measured, but none identified clearly as an IV or a D. If so, simply identify the variables.
3. Analysis/Results:
Highlight the most important results that test the author’s hypothesis.
4. Discussion:
Do the results support the author’s hypothesis? [Look for a simple statement of this near the beginning of the discussion section.]
What is the claim the author makes when discussing the results?
What does the author recommend as the msot interesting or important direction for future research?
What do you think would be the most interesting or important direction for future reserarch?
You must answer the 10 bulleted items in 1-4 in your synopsis for credit.
Listing your Reference in APA style:
General guidelines:
References cited in the text of a research paper must appear in a reference list or Bibliography.
This list proves the information necessary to identify and retrieve each source.
Order: Entries should be arranged in alphabetical order by author’s last names. Sources without authors are arranged alphabetically by title within the same list.
Authors: Write out the last name and initials for all authors of a particular work. Use an ampersand (&) instead of the word “and” when listing multiple authors of a single work. e.g., Smith, J.D. & Jones, M.
Pagination: Use the abbreviation p. or pp. to designate page numbers of articles from periodicals that do not use volume numbers, especially newspapers.
Indentation: the first line of the entry is flush with the left margin, and all subsequent lines are indented 5 to 7 spaces.
Underlings vs Italics; it is appropriate to use italics instead of underling for titles of books and journals.
What is the difference between a scholarly journal article and a popular magazine
