Shaping Impactful Counselors with a Dynamic Online Learning Experience

An Interactive Social Justice Dashboard

Within the learning management system, where coursework, exams and discussion boards are all hosted, students will have access to a one-of-a-kind Social Justice dashboard, which outlines important social justice-based skills that should be acquired during the Online M.Ed. in Counseling program. Each of these skills is mapped back to a specific course or set of assignments and is accompanied by insight into how students can further enhance and refine their capabilities.

As students move through the program, they are encouraged to track their individual accomplishments against the core competencies and self-evaluate whether they have understood and internalized the specific skill or skills they were expected to develop.

Measuring Progress Through Self-Reflection

Self-reflection is an important tool in counseling, and it is one that we leverage throughout the Online M.Ed. in Counseling program. As students explore core competencies and social justice-based skills throughout the program, they will also reflect on how their identity as both an individual and a counselor has evolved in response to specific assignments. Each of these guided reflections will be retained as coursework and, during final program evaluations, will serve as a way to measure student progress and preparedness for the counseling profession.
