ASSIGNMENT
Write a 2 to 3-page evaluation of one of the helping-skills approaches discussed in this course (Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Approaches, Trauma-Informed Approaches, De-escalation Techniques in policing, or Verbal Judo).
These papers must be double-spaced, in 12-point font, and uploaded as a word document. Further, you must provide appropriate in-text citations according to APA style.
In your papers, you must:
Summarize the helping skills approach in your own words. (1 to 3 paragraphs)
Discuss 2 outside sources on either the evidence or the need for the approach. You can focus on evidence that supports the approach, evidence that questions the approach, research that argues the approach is needed or research that questions the need. This section should read like a cohesive argument. Do not present 2 sources that have no relation to each other. Your sources should build on each other to support your argument. These sources MUST be academic peer-reviewed articles. (1 to 2 pages)
Discuss these sources separately.
Summarize their main conclusions/findings/arguments in your own words.
Explain how your sources provide evidence for or against the approach or how it argues for or against the need for the approach.
Provide a conclusion on the importance, need, or evidence of the approach. (1 to 2 paragraphs)
