Description

In this survey, inquiries were made to 312 teachers and 121 counselors on their views and opinions concerning school counseling. Inquiries were made on the following four points: (1) Mutual expectations on the roles of both sides; (2) Conditions for promoting a school counselor system; (3) Their concerns toward this new system; and (4) Projections of changes caused by the introduction of such a system. In this inquiry, school counselors were divided into two groups: counselors with teaching experience (SC I) and counselors without teaching experience (SC II). Comparative studies were made among these two groups and the ordinary teachers. The main findings were as followes: (1) The teacher group expected the advantages of compromisary roles of both sides, whereas SC II's expectations were a little more negative than SC I's.(2) Three groups gave importance to the professional knowledge and counseling techniques, but the teacher group gave some more emphasis on school counselors' teaching experiences.(3) SC I's interest and expectation for this system were the strongest, the SC II followed and the teachers became the weakest.(4) The SC I highly evaluated the prospect of the system.
