I will also show an example below of how the response needs to be addressed.
Here’s an example of how the response should look. Please don’t copy it. The response to the classmate need to be just like this.
Example Response (Response Needs to be writin just like the response below No copying)
RISE Feedback:
REFLECT: I concur with “Action plans should reflect the type of services that are needed and have an idea of the expected outcome of the services” because it is in line with Hatch and Hartline’s intentional school counseling guidelines in regards to determining students needs.
INQUIRE: Can you further explain what “closing-the-gap action plans” are?
SUGGEST: I encourage you to revisit Hatch and Hartline’s MTMDSS tier interventions in order to add a citation that would illustrate your example on bullying prevention efforts.
ELEVATE: What if you re-purposed “For example, after a needs assessment, the school is having problems with bullying” as “Following Trish Hatch’s MTMDSS tier based interventions, if the school is having problems with bullying, after a needs assessment, we could… citation…” for a more weighted argument?

****PLEASE RESPOND IN DEPTH***************************************************
Below are the two classmate discussion post that you will need to respond to
Classmate Response 1- Mia
What would you say to a group member who tells you that, according to his or her culture, it is impolite to speak without being asked? What are some factors to consider in this circumstance?
– When considering this discussion, I think that a counselor should first respect the students culture and his or her wishes. Secondly, I would maybe implement a technique that my supervisor used in my previous internship. For example, she had students hold a talking stick that allowed them to hold a conversation or reply to other aspects of the discussion. In this situation, the talking stick might be a good strategy because it could signify a person asking the student to speak without verbalizing the request. Although this might not work, I do think it would be a good technique to try.
What if the student revealed that they are very depressed and thinking of suicide?
– If this happens, the first thing I would tell the student is that they are safe and that they are loved. Secondly, I would get out a risk assessment form and ask them how long they have been thinking about suicide, do they have a plan, have they told anyone else, and have they attempted any suicidal ideation in the recent days or past. The risk assessment is helpful to see the level of seriousness of the case and figure out appropriate next steps regarding parents and possible outpatient or inpatient hospitalization. Also, I would call the parents or guardians to let them know about the suicidal ideation and what steps should be taken next. Although confidentiality is essential in a counseling practice, it is necessary to communicate with parents if suicide has been mentioned.

Classmate Response 2- Jamie

The best way to approach people from other cultures is to listen to them and understand their needs. Understand what drives them and why they do what they do. Listen to how they talk about themselves, their family, and their culture. If someone was to tell you that according to their culture it is impolite to speak without being asked, talk about that. Find out how it works for their culture and see if that can be incorporated into a group norm such as only the person with the talking stick talks. Allow others to gain understanding into different cultures but also the ability to express their viewpoint in a healthy way and create rules/boundaries that work for a group. There are differences with culture but the last thing in a group is to respect one culture but in doing so we offend another. Doing the norms and rules as a group and agreed upon to help everyone feel respected is important.
What if the student revealed that they are very depressed and thinking of suicide?
When and if a student has and does reveal they are thinking of suicide I always do a suicide risk assessment. I follow the school protocol and ask a series of questions. Based on the responses will determine if I’m just calling home and having a meeting with the parents on what the student has discussed of course after revealing to the student that they are in a safe space and can share but should they want to harm themselves I do have to let others know. If the student is at high risk, then I will bring in the school psych and through our determination the next step is an officer to determine the placement for the student. Usually, it’s a hold at a mental health facility or hospital for further evaluation and assessment. The goal is to make sure the student feels safe, need was met, and we get the best care for them. After I put my counseling notes into our system and check back in on the student. When the student returns to school I check in and get them in our counseling services. High or low risk depression and suicide thoughts always warrant counseling services, and often I will refer to our community therapist.
