SUPERVISION CASE STUDY PROJECT

SUPERVISION CASE STUDY PROJECT

In this course, you will complete a final project on identifying and resolving supervisee/trainee performance issues in the workplace. The objective of this assignment will be to create a brief presentation that demonstrates your ability to pinpoint performance issues, identify potential solutions, and measure the success of an intervention.

For this project, you will either:

Report a real-life performance issue experienced by yourself or colleagues, or

Create a hypothetical scenario of a performance issue in the workplace

Using the Performance Diagnostic Checklist Human Services (provided to you during Module 7), you will analyze a pinpointed supervisee/trainee behavior from your situation/scenario and determine a potential intervention to implement and strategy for measuring success.

You will present your assessment and intervention process via a 5-10 minute PowerPoint (or similar) presentation.

1. Title Slide

Should include your name and general title of your presentation (e.g., Repeated Delay in

Data Collection)

2. Scenario Slide

Describe a staff performance issue youve observed or experienced or write a hypothetical scenario of a staff performance issue in the workplace. Include contextual information, including the setting, relevant relationships between individuals in the scenario/situation, and environmental variables that will help inform your PDC-HS process later.

3. Pinpoint Slide:

Pinpoint the staff behavior of interest for increase or decrease. Ensure that your definition

follows all the requirements of a high-quality pinpoint (measurable, observable, passes the

dead persons test, not a non-behavior, etc.) Please review content in Module 3 for a

refresher on appropriate pinpoints.

4. PDC-HS Slides (x4):

Conduct a mock PDC-HS related to your scenario and briefly describe your findings for each section on separate slides. You should have a slide each for:

o Training

o Task Clarification and Prompting

o Resources, Materials, & Processes

o Performance Consequences, Effort, and Competition

5. Intervention Slide:

Select the intervention that you believe will have the greatest impact on the behavior of the supervisee/trainee member. Provide a list of resources needed to implement the

intervention (including people, time, funding, etc.), and a task analysis of the steps you

would take to put the intervention in place.

6. Measuring Success Slide:

Describe what data you would collect to determine if the intervention was successful and

how you would collect those data. For a refresher on measurement strategies, please review the content from Module 3.
