EDUC 613 - Positive Behavior Supports3 credits
This course focuses on both theory and practice of effective classroom management to ensure a safe and supportive classroom environment that promotes student achievement. Methods to manage group behavior are presented with emphasis on preventive intervention strategies for at-risk learners; HIB (harassment, intimidation and bullying), and practices that foster cultural understanding, safety, and emotional well-being. The use of structured assessment information to identify supports for children whose behaviors disrupt learning is emphasized through Functional Behavioral Assessments, and the development of Behavior Intervention Plans. Observation and recording measures to assess and analyze the communicative intent of inappropriate behaviors are examined. Replacement behaviors and strategies to promote self-management are covered. Emphasis will be placed on collaboration with families and other educators. A course embedded field component will be required.
