Impact of a Counseling Ethics Course on Graduate Students' Learning and Development
Lambie, Glenn W.; Ieva, Kara P.
International Journal for the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning, v6 n1 Article 12 Jan 2012
Data from graduate counseling students (N = 28) enrolled in an ethical and legal issues in professional school counseling course at a research university were used to investigate the impact of the course on students' levels of ethical and legal knowledge (Lambie, Hagedorn, & Ieva, 2010) and ego development (Loevinger, 1976, 1998). Students' ethical and legal knowledge scores increased significantly and pre-course ego maturity correlated with post-course ethical and legal knowledge. Implications for the scholarship of teaching and learning are discussed.
