  2. Explanation of Difficulties • Students may have trouble with interpersonal communication • They may unknowingly convey aggression, helplessness, intolerance, or stubbornness http://www.embrace-training.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/02/coaching.jpg

  3. Ways to Improve Professional Behaviors • Make students aware of issues and help them make efforts to change by dealing with stresses • Record observations of students’ attitudes, inappropriate behaviors, and communication • Meet with students in private spaces about these behaviors • Be supportive, yet firm; offer help • If students need professional counseling, contact Lisa Tekell, UTHSC Academic Fieldwork Coordinator • (901) 448-8072 • ltekell@utmem.edu http://www.nationmaster.com/encyclopedia/Interpersonal-communication

  4. Activities for Improving Professional Behaviors • Ask students to: • Read FISH by Stephen Lundin; ISBN 0-7868-6602-0-51995 • Write list of professional behaviors (not skills) expected from therapists and choose areas in which they need to improve; identify resources and strategies • Read articles on stress management and implement some strategies • Make one-page lists of positive affirmations and post in visible areas http://images.barnesandnoble.com/images/37880000/37887490.JPG

  5. Activities for Improving Professional Behaviors • Ask students to: • Make lists of outcomes if students become more positive versus if they retain old attitudes; place stars next to desirable outcomes. Ask students to reflect upon Who Moved My Cheese and their current attitudes. • List professional behaviors they admire in specific role models; describe difficult incidents these people handled well. • Write reflections of observations of role models with positive attitudes. • Describe typical behaviors of students who take responsibility for their own learning; list what actions are taken to demonstrate positive attitudes. Underline actions they demonstrate; place stars next to those upon which they need to improve. http://www.tbpcontrol.co.uk/TWS/CoverImages_TBP/009/181/0091816971.jpg

  6. Activities for Improving Professional Behaviors • Ask students to: • Write personal, measurable objectives that identify changes they want to make and include timelines and necessary resources for accomplishment; track progress. • List feedback they have received from supervisors, therapists, patients, peers, and family during past few weeks on two-column sheet with positive and negative; examine sheets and draw conclusions about needs for change. • Keep feedback logs and review weekly to determine progression. • Keep journals to express themselves and their responses to different situations. http://puttputtproductions.com/tmp/RavelloJournalsDetail.jpg

  7. Constructive Criticism • If students have difficulty accepting feedback, they probably go into defense mechanisms (denial, regression, rationalization, etc.) • Constructive criticisms help identify needed changes • Ask students to listen intently to givers of constructive criticisms and thank them • Ask students to check with others about their opinions and make every effort to learn from criticisms http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_0nq4HZqFAh0/Sb3Q7VFxawI/AAAAAAAABDE/Pcj5DYd6UVk/s400/criticism.jpg
