Description
Summary:This Internship report documents the writer's Spring Summer 1995 internship placement tn Harlow, Essex, England in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Education in School Psychology. The report is divided into two sections, a placement component and a research component. The placement component addresses the setting, the goals and objectives, the implementation and evaluation of the internship, and the intern's personal reflections. The research component undertakes a comparative analysis of the consultative practices of eight (8) educational psychologists: four practising in St. John's, Newfoundland, Canada, and four practising in Harlow, Essex, England. Results indicated both similarities and differences between the two groups of psychologists. These findings were analysed in terms of diverse conceptual consultative models and frameworks within current educational psychology.
