What is Developmental Coaching by Otto Laske, Ph.D. What is Developmental Coaching? by Otto Laske, Ph.D. There is no doubt that all coaching is developmental. All coaching makes a contribution to a client’s adult development. But the way coaching is typically done at present does not always meet the client where the client is developmentally, because a notion of the "where" of development (developmental level) is absent in the coach. This notion of development still leaves open two very different approaches to adult development. Developmental coaching is assessment based or "instrumented" coaching. How does developmental coaching in the constructivist sense proceed in order to assist clients? There are several methodologies for establishing a developmental baseline and follow-up measure. One of the available methodologies is the author’s Developmental Structure/Process Tool (DSPT™). Selected Bibliography Hudson, F. (1999).

The Document Which Was Formerly Called The MIT Guide to Lockpicking An interesting new lockpicking technique has been making its way around the internet. This technique uses 'bump keys' to open locks in a similar fashion to lockpicking guns but without requiring specialized hardware. You can read about bump keys in this document, and see a news report about them here. --- Presenting ---(drumroll please) I am told that the university which has its' name associated with this document would prefer not to. Which is too bad in a way. My original copy of this file was a text file zipped up with several GIF's. If you prefer, the entire thing is available as a PDF file or the original zipped postscript that the PDF was generated from. Nearly half of all the illustrations appear in chapter nine, so if that one takes a little while for your browser to fetch try to be patient. Otherwise, enjoy the file. - Akira This is how the Guide looked to me (as best I can recreate it) when it was given to me. - Dave Ferret Ted the Tool February 14, 1992 Distribution Contents

Chaos Theory for Beginners; An Introduction Life finds a way beauty of the unpredictable and display it in the most awesome patterns. Nature, when looked upon with the right kind of eyes, presents herself as one of the most fabulous works of art ever wrought. What is Chaos Theory? Chaos Theory is a mathematical sub-discipline that studies complex systems. Complex systems are systems that contain so much motion (so many elements that move) that computers are required to calculate all the various possibilities. But there is another reason that Chaos Theory was born so recently, and that is the Quantum Mechanical Revolution and how it ended the deterministic era! Up to the Quantum Mechanical Revolution people believed that things were directly caused by other things, that what went up had to come down, and that if only we could catch and tag every particle in the universe we could predict events from then on. How Chaos Theory was born and why. Hold that thought (7): The Uncertainty Principle prohibits accuracy. Attractors

Spontaneous Human Combustion Spontaneous Human Combustion Spontaneous human combustion is the alleged burning of a person's body without a readily apparent, identifiable external source of ignition. The combustion may result in simple burns and blisters to the skin, smoking, or a complete incineration of the body. There is much speculation and controversy over SHC. History of Spontaneous Human Combustion Many people believe that Spontaneous Human Combustion was first documented in such early texts as the Bible, but, scientifically speaking, these accounts are too old and secondhand to be seen as reliable evidence. Over the past 300 years, there have been more than 200 reports of persons burning to a crisp for no apparent reason. The first reliable historic evidence of Spontaneous Human Combustion appears to be from the year 1673, when Frenchman Jonas Dupont published a collection of Spontaneous Human Combustion cases and studies entitled De Incendiis Corporis Humani Spontaneis. On December 5, 1966, the ashes of Dr.

The Complete Guide to Not Giving a Fuck Ok, I have a confession to make. I have spent almost my whole life– 31 years–  caring far too much about offending people, worrying if I’m cool enough for them, or asking myself if they are judging me. I can’t take it anymore. It’s stupid, and it’s not good for my well being. It has made me a punching bag–  a flighty, nervous wuss. Today, ladies and gentlemen, is different. We’re going to talk about the cure. Do you wonder if someone is talking shit about you? Well, it’s time you started not giving a fuck. FACT NUMBER 1. Yes, it’s really happening right at this moment. What people truly respect is when you draw the line and say “you will go no further.” Right. Regular people are fine– you don’t actually hear it when they’re talking behind your back. Thankfully, that’s not actually true. FACT NUMBER 2. This stuff is crazy, I know, but it’s cool, you’ll get used to it. How liberating this is may not even hit you yet, but it will. FACT NUMBER 3. Relationships are weird. FACT NUMBER 4.
This is the place where I tell you about my autism... How does my autism affect me? What does it do to me? Well, firstly, it makes me more of a loner than most people would be. Not that I'm anti-social, though - the sad fact is that I can't easily cope with too many human-to-human interactions all at once. This is because I find it difficult to process all that verbal and non-verbal information all at once. It's a bit like a PC, you know... you run your PC under Windows and then you select about four applications to use. Another thing it affects is my ability to deal with emotions. I also have difficulties understanding what people say to me. The thinking bit of the brain is actually two very separate structures, which only "talk" to each other via this thing called the corpus callosum (almost literally, the hard bit!). What my autism does to me is to make me vulnerable to being abused, and this has happened to me all my life. RELATIONSHIPS.... Learning is very difficult for an autistic person. My Autism Links

Ten Things Your Student with Autism Wishes You Knew | Ellen Notbohm (…and it makes sense for other kids too!) ©2005, 2013 Ellen Notbohm. Contact the author for permission to reproduce in any way, including re-posting on the Internet. When my article “Ten Things Every Child with Autism Wishes You Knew” was published in 2004, I could scarcely have imagined the response. Readers around the world wrote to tell me that the piece should be required reading for all social service workers, teachers and relatives of children with autism. Here are ten things your student with autism wishes you knew: 1. Start by believing this: I truly do want to learn to interact appropriately. 2. Are you sure I really know how to do what is being asked of me? Are you sure I actually know the rules? 3. Ask the school occupational therapist for sensory-friendly ideas for the classroom. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. Raising pitch or volume of your voice. 9. Please! 10. You take for granted the amazing number of choices you have on a daily basis. The last word: believe. www.ellennotbohm.com
