New Developments For Special Educators And Students With Disabilitiesnoblex1
An increasing number of students require specialized health care procedures during school hours. Procedures such as tube feedings, clean intermittent catheterization, suctioning, and ventilator management are becoming more commonplace in the school setting. Who performs the procedures and is responsible for them being correctly implemented varies across school districts and states. Although consensus can be difficult to reach regarding other critical areas surrounding specialized health care procedures. Two critical areas have been identified and are as follows:
First and foremost, all teachers need to maintain a safe, healthy environment for their students in collaboration with others in the school. This includes learning about their students' specific physical and/or health impairments, physical health care procedures, and treatment regime. A teacher should know the major problems and emergencies that could arise with each student. There should be a plan in place to know how to respond should a problem occur. Teachers should also know general safety skills such as universal precautions, general first aid, and CPR.
Second, specialized health care procedures should be viewed as independent living skills, which students should be taught. Specialized health care procedures and other health management skills should be considered for goals and objectives. These objectives could target independent performance, partial participation, directing someone else in performance, or knowledge of the task. It is the educational team's responsibility to consider how students can participate in their own self-care.
The plan for and establishment of instruction in the area of self-management skill development must include input from appropriate health care specialists, such as nurses, OTs, and PTs. Teachers of students with physical and health disabilities are responsible for providing expertise in the area of instructional strategies and adaptations to promote student learning of these procedures. Even when health care personnel are responsible for performing these procedures, teachers must work closely with them, providing appropriate instructional strategies, error analysis, and correction procedures.
Society can steal the dreams of people with disabilities. It defines what people with disabilities are capable of, provides ready-made programs instead of letting these individuals choose their own path; holds low expectations for their achievement, giving praise for mediocre performance instead of expecting the best; and limits their experiences under the guise of protection or safety.
Dreams are the essence of a free society, the privilege to dream and the freedom to make that dream come true. This is true for all people.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Addressing the unique mental health needs of college
1. Addressing the Unique
Mental Health Needs of
College Students
Dr. Dawn-Elise Snipes
AllCEUs Counselor Continuing Education
Podcast Host: Counselor Toolbox
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 1
2. Objectives
Identify the scope of the mental health problem in college
students
Identify the impact of mental health issues on learning
and student retention
Learn about the connection between mental health issues
and substance abuse
Explore unique issues faced by college students
Identify the components of a good campus mental health
program and other strategies to reduce stressors
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 2
3. Scope of the Problem
According to a 2016 American College Health Association
survey,
37percent of students reported feeling so depressed within the
last 12 months that it was difficult to function
21 percent felt overwhelming anxiety
A survey of students seen for mental health services at 66
college counseling centers found that prior to college
10 percent of these students had used psychiatric medications
5 percent had been hospitalized for psychiatric reasons
11 percent had seriously considered suicide
5 percent had attempted suicide.
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 3
4. Scope of the Problem
The 2015 NSDUH shows that adults ages 18 or older with past year
mental health issues were more likely than other adults in that age
group to have used illicit drugs in the same period (32.1 vs 14.8%)
The risk of co-occurring disorders is pronounced among college
students as they transition from adolescence to adulthood, an age
when mental health issues often surface for the first time and in a
new environment where substance use is common
Increased academic distress is associated with increased mental
health issues including suicidal ideation
Misuse of drugs and alcohol is correlated with
Need to cope with the pressures of college life (6.4% of college students
report nonmedicinal use of ADHD medications)
Campus culture of alcohol use
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 4
5. Why Do We Care?
The overall state of student’s health affects learning.
Mental health problems and harmful health behaviors such as
substance abuse can impair the quality and quantity of learning.
They decrease students’ intellectual and emotional flexibility, weaken their
creativity, and undermine their interest in new knowledge, ideas, and
experiences.
Behavioral health issues such as binge drinking, drug use, cutting and
other self-injurious behavior, eating disorders, pornography addiction,
and problematic gambling can all be understood as maladaptive
strategies to reduce stress and anxiety.
Several of those behaviors are reinforced and supported in the social
culture of many colleges and universities. (Which behaviors are
reinforced in your university?)
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 5
6. Why Do We Care?
Students may self-medicate by turning to substance
use
Substance use is frequently associated with negative
personal, social, and community consequences, from
regretted actions while intoxicated to “hooking up.”
Students need access to care to cope with these events to
prevent PTSD, depression and suicidal ideation.
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 6
7. Issues Students Face
Stressors
New freedoms and independence
New surroundings and experiences
New social networks
Separation from family and established friendships
New academic demands
Some students may be afraid to seek certain types of help
or request accommodations for a mental health issue for
fear of being viewed as incapable or being expelled.
However, without accommodations, their performance may be
negatively affected
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 7
8. Developing Resilience
A key component of well-being is resilience—the ability to
recognize, face, and manage or overcome problems and
challenges, and to be strengthened, rather than defeated,
in the process.
Resilient graduates better navigate today’s uncertain and
volatile economic, employment, and career environments.
Challenges to health and well-being undermine resilience
by making it more difficult for the student to deal with
life on life’s terms
Less resilient students take fewer intellectual and
creative risks and are poor partners in group learning
situations
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 8
9. Developing Resilience
Hardiness (Commitment, control and challenge) is a
strategy that can promote resilience
Hardy personality allows one to have confidence in one’s ability to
handle change, increases belief in one’s general competence, and
helps derive personal meaning from one's social activities
Learning experiences of all kinds, from academic courses
to student employment, help students develop this ability
What experiences can we facilitate to help students? (What
problems can we present, in what way, with what expected
outcome?)
Providing culturally competent, trauma-informed services
and active outreach to specific populations is vital
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 9

Where/how else…
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 10
11. Special Issues
Cultural factors may also inhibit help seeking
Race/ethnic beliefs about mental illness and help seeking
LGBTQI2
Gender
Group membership
Veterans
Many veterans face the challenges of injury, PTSD and TBI.
Adjustment from a military environment to the less formal
campus culture can be quite difficult.
Providing mental and behavioral health services within a
veterans’ center or focused programming for military learner
support can improve their functioning and learning
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 11
12. Special Issues
Students with autism spectrum disorders, including
Asperger’s syndrome, also have important needs.
Early identification, treatment, and effective
accommodations before matriculation can prepare these
students for the academic rigors of higher education.
Social skills deficits, however, are often problematic for
students participating in the classroom, learning in groups,
engaging in student organizations and activities, and living
in residence halls.
Collaboration among several campus offices is necessary to
respond to the needs of these students and promote their
learning and retention
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 12
13. Components of Quality Programs
Strategies to strengthen learning outcomes for
students of any age and in any context
Improving the quality of the learning environment.
Provide education, outreach and prevention services to
help students manage unique stressors
Providing culturally responsive, trauma informed
services to treat mental health and addiction issues
Ensure faculty, staff, administration and health
personnel are aware of strategies to help students deal
with stressors
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 13
14. Components of Quality Programs
The best way for colleges and universities to nurture
resilience among students is to promote health and
well-being, especially mental and behavioral health,
at both
Individual
Organizational
Community levels (housing, employment,
activities/engagement)
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 14
15. Components of Quality Programs
Publicity campaign to
Reduce the negativity associated with seeking help for
mental health issues
Educate the campus community (students, residence hall
staff, instructors) about
The warning signs of mental health issues
Stress management and wellness strategies
Demonstrate understanding of different ethnic/racial social
norms and needs
Raise awareness of the resources on campus and in the
surrounding community.
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 15
16. Components of Quality Programs
Screen students during orientation
Provide web-based screening that connects with the
counseling center
Improve campus culture focusing on discrimination,
trust, respect, dignity, sensitivity and cultural
competency
Improve access to information focusing on the
information needed and communication and
dissemination practices
Make services available on campus… even if that is a
clinician from the community
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 16
17. Components of Quality Programs
Manage expectations of campus mental health
systems and changes to promote mental health
and recovery on campus (How much can the
center reasonably do?) focusing on…
Student control and choice
Mental health care expectations
Administrative expectations
Accommodations and policy
Community approaches
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 17
18. Components of Quality Programs
Other Services and Procedures
Access to mental and behavioral expertise for faculty,
staff, families, and peers who are concerned about a
student
Ability for self referral
Off campus referrals
Emergency services
Aftercare programs
Medical leave policies
Nonclinical student support networks
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 18
19. Components of Quality Programs
Onsite counseling centers with an interdisciplinary
team that includes the primary health care providers,
licensed social workers/counselors, life skills support
staff, registered dietitians, peer support specialists
Onsite medical services and assistance with
prescriptions
Student and administration leadership to promote
mental health and suicide prevention (Athletes,
Panhellenic, SOTA, minorities, unaffiliated students)
Life skills development
Social network promotion
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 19
20. Other Helping Strategies/Stress Points
Tutoring programs
Mentoring programs
Ensure sufficient parking and transportation
Hold all student groups on campus strictly accountable
for underage alcohol use at their facilities and during
functions that they sponsor.
Eliminate alcohol advertising in college publications.
Educate parents, instructors, and administrators about
the secondhand effects of substance use that range from
interference with studying to being the victim assault or
date rape
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 20
21. Other Helping Strategies/Stress Points
Enlist administrative, community and student assistance
in changing any culture that currently supports alcohol
use by underage students or substance misuse.
Expand opportunities for students to make spontaneous
social choices that do not include alcohol (e.g., by
providing frequent alcohol-free, late night events;
extending the hours of student centers and athletic
facilities; and increasing public service opportunities
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 21
22. Campus Wide Emergency Plan
Emergency mental health-related situations that
should be addressed in the plan include:
Managing suicidal and/or homicidal ideation.
Managing victims of sexual assault, with clarification
regarding exemption from mandated reporting in this
context.
Managing highly agitated or threatening behavior, acute
psychosis (often involving hallucinations and/or
delusions) or paranoia.
Managing acute delirium/confusional state.
Managing acute intoxication or drug overdose.
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 22
23. Campus Wide Emergency Plan
Written procedures for managing emergency mental health
situations should, at a minimum:
Identify situations in which EMS should be immediately contacted.
Identify situations in which the individual responding should contact a
trained on-call counselor, or the sexual assault center.
Identify trained on-call counselors who will be able to provide direct
and consultative crisis intervention to the student to help stabilize the
situation and recommend next steps for action.
Designate expectations for each stakeholder during a crisis
Specify steps to be taken by each stakeholder after an emergency
situation has resolved to provide appropriate resources and follow-up
care to the student.
Specify a procedure for reviewing preventive and emergency procedures
after the resolution of the emergency situation
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89

24. Special Issues for Student Athletes
Coaches should learn about the importance of being attentive
and empathic in their interactions with student-athletes who
are facing mental health challenges, while understanding that
their role is not to manage the situation themselves.
Clearly delineate a transition of care plan for student-athletes
who are leaving the college sport environment in the interest of
continuing medical care and student-athlete welfare
Identify who is responsible for initiating transition of care and
for facilitating the academic waiver process, should a waiver be
needed
Develop plan for helping student-athletes who have been away
from campus while seeking care for mental health issues
transition back to campus and to sport participation
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 24
25. Special Issues for Student Athletes
Understand the institutional policies related to athletics
financial awards and team engagement for student-athletes
who are unable to continue sport participation, either
temporarily or permanently, due to mental health
considerations
Be aware of strategies for financial support of student-athletes
in need of extended outpatient treatment or inpatient care
Consult campus disability services office on how to increase
inclusive practices that may increase engagement of student-
athletes
AllCEUs Unlimited CEUs $59 | Addiction Counselor Certificate Training $149 | Specialty Certificates $89 25
26. Summary
To thrive, students need access to services and
programs of outreach, education, and prevention that:
Eliminate fragmentation and improving access to biopsychosocial
services
Recognize patterns in campus life that suggest the presence of
mental and behavioral health concerns among individual students,
groups of students, or the campus environment itself
Provide outreach and consultation to prepare all members of the
campus community to recognize and respond to students with
mental or behavioral health concerns
Emphasize case-finding—using surveys, presentations, self-
assessments, activities, and special events—to identify students
