    Getting Started

    Podcast 86, "Getting Started," finds me reviewing my past experiences that had prepared me for my role of creating and implementing the psychological services delivery model for the cooperative's member school systems.  This entailed delivering the bulk of the services through the use of senior doctorial level graduate students in school psychology and providing them with an in-depth understanding of the new special education laws of 1973.  They needed this information in order to fulfill their role in the law's implementation and in providing in-service training to the teaching staff within their assigned school systems.

    Startling Revelations

    Podcast 87, "Startling Revelations," reveals some of the things I learned about the cooperative after my employment began in July 1973.  I was surprised by the reactions of a school system's staff members when I made my first in-service presentation concerning the implementation of the new special education law.  There were funding issues in the beginning.  It seems there were always funding issues.

    Humor in the Stress

    Podcast 88, "Humor in the Stress," relates the high degree of stress the providers of the psychological services encountered due to the lack of understanding of the new 1973 special education law.  This lack of preparedness to implement the law produced a great deal of misunderstanding and fear in the minds of many educators. The educational cooperative's service providers were the change agents for the school systems.  The role of a change agent is a stressful one.  We developed strategies to reduce that stress.

    Learning the Culture

    Podcast 89, "Learning the Culture," provides examples of the importance of valuing the uniqueness of every subculture we encounter.  In the case of the sub-cultural issues within the educational cooperative's school systems, it was critically important that I and the graduate assistants understand and honor their sub-cultural processes in accomplishing our common goals of assisting children within the educational setting.
