Managing Disruptive Behaviors In The Schools

This text supports teachers in preventing management problems and responding to unwanted behavior when it occurs in classrooms. Managing Disruptive Behaviors in the Schools offers a comprehensive presentation of three levels of behavior management strategies: school-wide, classroom, and individual. Although all of these levels contribute to a positive learning environment according to the U.S. Department of Education, many Schools of Education have not had the resources to cover all three environments. A social learning emphasis, in which human behavior is viewed within an ecological framwork, is integrated throughout the text. Application of this information is supported by a range of devices such as vignettes, examples, strategies, and activities to show students how to manage behavior effectively.
