Physical Environment of A Classroom

• The physical layout of the classroom can impact both behavior & instruction.•Teachers identify crowded rooms as a setting event for problem behaviors (McGill, Teer, Rye, & Hugues, 2003).• Teachers do not have power over the number of students in a room, they do have control over the way the classroom is organized.• Students & teachers need to move around the room without bumping into objects, each other or interrupting each others work (Jones & Jones, 2007; Stichter et al., 2004).• Teachers need to continuously assess the classroom space in their classroom.

Page 3: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

A daily schedule should be developed & clearly visible for all to see.

Unstructured time in the schedule is an open invitation for disruptive behavior.

Having a schedule helps teachers maintain order & provides teachers a mechanism to ensure most of the day is scheduled for academic activity (Trussell, 2008).

Effective instruction is a key component of behavior management.

Daily Classroom Schedule

Page 4: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Lack of clarity of rules has pointed to difficulty in avoiding anti-social behavior in schools (Mayer, 1995).

A classroom with unclear rules becomes a setting for problem behaviors.

A cycle develops between lack of following rules and punitive actions by adults (Trussell, 2008).

An environment in which there are high rates of punitive practices between student & adults becomes a setting for problem behavior (Mayer, 1995).

To create a classroom environment in which there are clear & consistent rules & expectations, a critical 1st step is to have the rules of the classroom clearly posted and visible for all students.

Classroom Rules

Page 5: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Student-teacher interactions for students with problem behaviors are limited & characterized as less than positive & often coercive (Gunther, Denny, Jack, Shores, & Nelson, 19993; Nelson & Roberts, 2000).

Sutherland (2000) concluded from his review of the literature that students with E/BD receive extremely rates of reinforcement.

Teachers who have students with challenging behavior in their classrooms provide infrequent positive reinforcement & often impose noncontingent reprimands (Reinke & Herman, 2002)

Praise

Page 6: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Conroy, Sutherland, Snyder, Al-Hendawi, & Vo (2009) define effective praise as teacher-initiated statements that convey to students the specific behaviors in which teachers would like to see students to continue to engage in the future.

Teachers who provide high rates of positive feedback create a climate in which student’s are routinely & consistently recognized & their positive skills are strengthened.

Researchers have identified praise as a research-supported practice for students with E/BD (Lewis, Hudson, Richter, & Johnson, 2004).

Effective Praise

Page 7: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Precorrection is a proactive strategy. Precorrection is associated with what happens directly

before an expected behavior occurs. Precorrection decreases the amount of time teachers spend

in redirection & correction after mistakes & inappropriate behavior has occurred (Lampi, Fenty, & Beaunae, 2005).

Precorrection prevents repetition of the wrong behavior. Precorrection sets up situations in which teachers can use

praise to reinforce the appropriate behaviors (Colvin, Sugai, & Patching, 1993).

Precorrection creates a more positive climate in the classroom because less punitive strategies are required (Lampi, Fenty, & Beaunae, 2005).

Precorrection

Page 8: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Most programs for students with E/BD have implemented token economies, point systems, or level systems (Reitz, 1994).

Limited research on level systems has been conducted.

Much controversy over level systems has surfaced.

When used appropriately level systems are valuable tools to manage behavior in E/BD classrooms.

Token Economy/Level Systems

Page 9: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Rationale for Level/Point Systems

When implemented effectively they provide fair & consistent order.

Provide teachers & staff with a clear structure for effectively utilizing descriptive instructional praise & corrective teaching.

They assist in generalizing prosocial behavior from special education to inclusive settings.

Restore students lost hope. Provides opportunities for teachers to evaluate

student behavior more frequently.

Page 10: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Teaching Social Skills

Review – why the skill important? Teach skills by breaking them into small steps. Demonstrate & model the skill. Have students practice the skill using role playing. Provide performance feedback & reinforcement

for practice. Provide homework. Systematically provide a program for generalization

of social skills.

Page 11: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

With IDEA 2004 functional behavior assessment is required prior to the development of a BIP for students with disabilities that impede functioning in the educational environment (Killu, 2008).

FBA involves using several methods to determine the casual & maintaining factors for a challenging behavior that lead to the development of intervention strategies to meet the individualized needs of a student.

The underlying theme for conducting an FBA is that all behavior has a function & occurs for a reason.

Failure to conduct a comprehensive FBA may result in an ineffective behavioral intervention.

FBA/BIP’s

Page 12: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Teachers of students with E/BD must be trained & be proficient in de-escalating students disruptive, noncompliant, & aggressive behavior (Colvin, 2004).

There are many programs to train teachers to proactively manage disruptive, noncompliant, & aggressive behavior (Couvillion, Peterson, Ryan, Scherrman, & Stegall, 2010).

We must be very careful in the use of physical restraint & seclusion of students.

We must follow CCBD guidelines for physical restraints & seclusion (CCBD, 2009).

Crisis Intervention

Page 13: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

The reintegration of students with E/BD is one of the weakest links in programming for these students (Huntze & Werner, 1982).

Very little research regarding the reintegration of students with E/BD has been conducted.

Many school districts do not have guidelines for the reintegration of students with E/BD into integrated settings.

The reintegration of students with E/BD should be a major goal of all E/BD programs.

Integrating Students Into Inclusive Settings

Page 14: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Participants  

◦ Mailed survey to CCBD members during the 2010-2011 school year. CCBD members were asked to complete the survey if they were currently EBD teachers.

◦ Four mailings were distributed to a sample pool of 1411 participants, 295 responded for a return rate 21%.

Behavioral Intervention Study

Page 15: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

◦ The questionnaire consisted of 80 items in 10 clusters. The ten clusters ascertained teachers’ responses regarding behavioral interventions they use in their classrooms. The clusters are:

classroom organizations and management strategies;

classroom rules; proactive strategies; social skills strategies; motivational strategies; consequence strategies; reintegration strategies; behavior intervention strategies (BIP); crisis management strategies; and demographic information.

Instrument development

Page 16: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

◦ The development of the survey came from the following sources: we surveyed varies EBD methods textbooks

and selected behavioral interventions that were considered best practice;

we selected behavioral interventions from the literature that were considered best practice; and

we analyzed syllabi from various classes in behavior management and EBD methodology.

Page 17: 2011 Illinois CCBD Drive-In Conference

Draft of questionnaire was pilot tested by a group of 10 EBD teachers at the elementary, middle, and high school levels in northwest Ohio and Wisconsin. Teachers responded to items, provided feedback on the clarity of items, the time it took them to complete the survey, and they made suggestions on how to improve the survey.
