Student Behavior Change
There are trends that have developed among young adults that are quite troubling. Studies from the Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention
show that 70 percent of deaths of ten to twenty–four year olds come by way of automobile crashes, accidental injuries, homicide, and suicide (Bristol
4). These high numbers are due to the fact that people are making poor decisions that could have been prevented. Numbers by the Youth Risk Behavior
Surveillance System show that an upwards of 20% of college students have driven under the influence of alcohol (Johnson 68). This statistic is
especially concerning as many involved are aged below the legal drinking age. The college years are the time that many students develop good and bad
health behaviors. It is only fitting that an informational health course...show more content...
Students and alumni that have taken a physical activity lab in conjunction with the lecture section have shown a more positive attitude towards
physical fitness then those who have just taken a lecture based course (Esslinger 164). This lab class gives you a more hands on approach to the
information learned in the lecture course. Activities such as nutrition label reading, various exercise demonstrations as well as behavior change
projects can be offered. (McBride 357). A behavior change project is a personal assessment of a certain problem behavior in your life that you
would like to change. This could be anywhere from quitting smoking, to eating your daily values of fruits and vegetables. The course helps you
realize the problem, sets up a very specific plan to help aid you in your process to fulfilling that goal, and shows you how to track your progress. This
process gives you all the necessary tools and motivation to put you on the right path for healthier changes in the future. All the student then needs to do
is commit to their behavior change to put it in effect (Esslinger

Reflection Paper On Student Behavior
Student Interactions
The teacher is very smart and the class only consists of 23 students, but he has high expectations which requires the whole class to answer questions
as he is solving a graph, equation, or function which was presented on the MoviBoard. The teacher does not call on a single person or group to
answer the questions which allows the students to answer freely within the class discussions. The teacher calls on the class as a whole and typically
everyone participates. I would say 95% of the students answer and follow through with the teacher's solutions. If not, during group work, they typically
answer each other's questions within their groups. The students answer each other's questions whenever the teacher or classmate makes a mistake to
enforce the correct solution is being presented in class. They do this so whenever they are looking back at their notes, they are able to study the correct
material.
Within the classroom, there is a friendly environment where everyone interacts with each other. The classroom itself can get pretty loud, but we can
tell they care for their grade because they are discussing mathematical solutions. Although more than 90% of the class students are Hispanic, the class
spoke English only during the observation and class discussions. The expectation for student behavior toward each other is high, which allows them to
create a respectable environment with one another.
Reflection for Calculus I:
The classroom room environment was very respectful as the students addressed their peers and professor in an orderly manner. When my partner and I
introduced ourselves, I used an attention getter and the students were quiet and respectful as they listen to us inviting them to our PBI Lesson in
December. The decorations in the classroom consisted of a Word Wall which had trigonometric formulas, limit formulas, derivate examples, and even
posters with word problems. These posters in the classroom can make a big difference because they allow the students to reinforce ideas, concepts, or
formulas they forget throughout the school semester. The teacher has Inspire, Ti–89 and scientific calculators available to his students to use only as

The purpose of this project is to analyze the components of an effective Positive Behavior Support Plan and the effect a positive behavior support plan
has on student behavior and academic achievement when compared to those students who are considered high risk and not have a behavior support
plan in place. The goal is to help the students monitor their own behavior, increase their academic achievement and eliminate the possibility of an
involuntary transfer to an alternative education setting such as continuation high school.
The 1997 amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) made functional behavioral assessment (FBA) and positive behavior
support legal requirements for schools serving student with disabilities. The 2004 reauthorization of IDEA retains the emphasis on supporting students
using FBA–guided positive behavior support (Benazzi, 2006).
Positive Behavior Support is a problem–solving approach to understanding reasons for problem behavior and designing comprehensive interventions
that are matched to hypotheses about why problem behavior is occurring and to the individual's unique social, environmental and cultural milieu. A
critical goal of PBS is not just to reduce problem behaviors in the short term, but also to create long lasting changes that will have an impact on the
individuals overall quality of life (Safran, 2006).
The increase of disruptive and dangerous behavior in schools has reached alarming proportions. As a consequence,

Classroom Behavior Essay
Would you be surprised to learn that in today's classroom children sometimes aren't learning due to behavioral issues? Teachers are attempting to teach
classes in which students can be disruptive, disrespectful and defiant. Classrooms are often overcrowded which adds to the frustration of the situation.
Teachers are often tempted to take the easy way out, using antiquated strategies that will usually not help the child to learn. In fact, some types of
punishments can actually cause the child to become even more rebellious. The child can experience a sense of worthlessness after being punished again
and again.
Children do not act out because they are "bad." They act out in the hopes of receiving some kind of response or reward. In the...show more content...
On the other hand, if that child fills the need for attention by getting into trouble at school, they will get into trouble. Skinner tells us that
"non–reinforcement leads to the extinction of a behavior." In other words if teachers figure out what the child is getting from exhibiting a particular
behavior, they can then give that child the exact opposite of the expected response. If our response is consistent the child will eventually give up the
behavior in lieu of another which yields more satisfying results. The reward system is sometimes turned around to reinforce poor behavior. Often,
children who are misbehaving are looking for some sort of a reaction. It is possible that they believe that it is better to not even try than to try and fail.
It could also be true that the only type of attention they receive comes from the instances in which they misbehave. Although as adults it may seem
logical that one would avoid being singled out or chastised, children who have little sense of self worth will "take what they can get." Skinner calls his
strategy for dealing with disruption "non–reinforcement." Skinner's theory claims that "non–reinforcement leads to extinction of behavior." By
ignoring disruptive behavior, a teacher can extinguish it. Eventually, the disruptive student will realize that their behavior will not gain any response
will seek another way to belong to the group.

Emotional Behaviour Problems
Many children in today's world experience some form of emotional behavior. In some cases these emotions are not adequetly dealt with well by the
child. How do teachers, the government, and parents deal with children who have behavior problems ranging from moderate, to severe? The answer is
to follow. This paper will discuss five different articles which define what a behavior problem is, classroom management strategies for students and
teachers, and the education environments that are best for children with Emotional or Behavioral Disorders. (EBD) Topics also included, community

This article was very informative. I was aware of the negative attitudes some teachers can have towards students having encountered a few of these
myself. What I was unaware of, however, was that the reciprocal effect of negative behavior. When a teacher demands, a child reacts negatively and as
such the teacher responds with more assertion. This obviously is not a good thing when trying to deal with children who have EBD. I also feel that the
classroom strategies offered by the authors could be extremely helpful in future situations that I may encounter. Giving students the chance to
participate in determining the rules may result in the desired positive effect.
The second article I read, "Educational Environments for the pupil with Behavioral Disorders: A "Best Evidence" synthesis." By Barry H. Schnieder
and Janice Leroux, discussed the progress of children with behavior problems in different educational environments. The authors reviewed different
placements for students and the headway made by each I their settings. Many different methods were used to examine the research and get a 'best
evidence' report from the collective research.
The research found that while it is possible to use intervention in a classroom or a special school, the costs and limitation of staff and time were too
many. The authors developed a technique called meta–analysis

Behaviour For Learning
Introduction
Behaviour for learning refers to the pressure on schools to constantly attempt to raise attainments (Department for Children, Schools and Families
2009). This has come about because of schools trying to raise standards for their students that can be identified in the teaching standards which
promotes the raising of standard for students. Adams (2009) says 97 percent of new qualified teachers believe managing student behaviour is one of the
most important issues for them in the teaching field. Behaviour cannot be separated from learning as they are intrinsically linked together (Ellis and
Tod, 2009). Behaviour for learning therefore becomes one of the most important issue for newly qualified teachers and trainee teachers. This reflective
writing will look at how the trainee teacher will building relationships in the classrooms as a means of promoting behaviour for learning.

They are relationship with self, relationship with others and relationship with the curriculum. According to Ellis and Todd (2009) relationship with self
involves the students understanding about him or herself in terms of self–esteem and motivation while relationship with others involves how the

Many behavior and social problems observed in children are related to poor classroom interventions that are designed to meet those needs. It is
important that these models are applied during children's development through positive interactions in the family, childcare centre, school and the
community. However, not all conceptual models are appropriate in assisting student withbehavior problems. Therefore, this essay will discuss
appropriateness of the conceptual models to assisting students with behavior problems in schools that includes Biological/biophysical, Psychodynamic,
Behavioural, Cognitive–behavioural, Sociological and Ecological models. Also this essay will explain how they can be accommodated by
professionals to create a supportive early childhood, and promoting positive school climate to foster wellbeing, development and learning.
The first model is the biological/biophysical model which generate negative expectations for individuals with disabilities that resulted from biophysical
etiologies (Rosenberg, Wilson, Maheady, & Sindelar, 2004).Therefore , this model is inappropriate as some professional working with students with
known biophysical impairment can be judgmental and low expectations of their performance (Kauffman,1985). Hence, professional and educators must
be responsible to educate all students with no exceptions. They should integrate key principles into everyday instructional techniques and classroom
practices and looking for opportunities to

Disrespectful Behavior In School
One behavioral issue that can be observed in schools is disrespect. Being respectful means that you show others you care about their feelings and
well–being. Whereas, disrespectful behavior shows little regard for the feelings of others. Disrespect towards teachers specifically, can present as
disruptive and confrontational behavior (McNeely, 2017). For example, a student displaying disrespectful behavior may say that they do not care about
the lesson, or say that their teacher is stupid. Students may exhibit disrespectful behaviors for several reasons. One of these reasons being that they lack
an understanding of respect and have limited experiences with receiving or showing respect (Borba, 2017). It is important to consider a student's
background when they display disrespectful behaviors (McNeely, 2017). If students have not seen respect modeled frequently in their lives, it is
understandable that may not understand this behavior (Borba, 2017). Another reason that students may react with disrespect, or display these negative
behaviors is that they do not feel respected themselves (McNeely, 2017). Students that do not feel respected in the classroom may act out. Furthermore,
if the student is not treated respectfully this can lead to confrontations, power struggles, and disruptions (McNeely, 2017). Some teachers aspire only to
be respected. Consequently, they forget to respect their students (Tomlinson, 2011). There are many ways that a teacher can address

Positive Behavior Reflection Paper
I first read the article about positive behavioral supports. I gained an insight about the importance of knowing and observing the child. If we do not
carefully do observation, we could misunderstand why a child is behaving a certain way. If we do not understand the why, then we cannot solve the
problem. We need to know the purpose of thebehavior so we can teach an alternate behavior that provides the same purpose as the undesired behavior.
We as teachers can also lessen the amount of times a student is exposed to the trigger which causes the behavior. If we do all of these parts we can help
a child overcome the negative behavior and replace it with a positive behavior. I am going to practice looking at what trigger's Matthew's bad behavior
so that I can avoid those triggers. This will help me learn the process so I will be a more effective teacher when I have my own classroom.
I had an insight when reading the article about preventing challenging behavior. I did not realize the importance of making sure the activities are
interesting to the child. However, after pondering it I realized it is such a powerful tool. That is why we need to differentiate our instruction so that
all of our students find it engaging. It is so much easier to prevent bad behavior than to fix it. As a teacher I am going to make sure I am being
proactive in my lesson planning. I am going to prevent problems by taking a little extra time to make sure my lessons are engaging all my students. If I

Student Behavior in the United States Education System
Approximately 20% of children exhibit symptoms consists with a diagnosable mental disorder; however, children often do not receive mental health
services until their symptoms have become severe, and only 1% are identified with an emotional and/or behavior disorder in the school setting and
receive special education for these disorders. Additionally, children who do not have a diagnosis, but exhibit challenges with social and behavioral
skills, tend to have challenges in the academic setting, but often to do also receive effective supports.

MTSS as Prevention. Schools are an ideal place to assist children with mental health issues. Using a preventive model, such as the MTSS model
described above, to catch problems early may prevent children from developing more serious or longer–term problems. Research indicates that treating
children who are at–risk for emotional and behavioral problems can decrease the likelihood that they will later be diagnosed with a mental health
disorder while also lowering the healthcare costs. However, traditionally, behavior problems have not been addressed until a student receives one or
more office discipline referrals, and there tends to be a two–year gap between the time that the child first receives an outside diagnosis and when they
begin receiving services in the schools.
Universal screeners provide schools information that may help prevent future office disciplinary referrals and prevent future behavior challenges.
Therefore, providing a universal screener may identify children who would otherwise not receive services until the problem behavior becomes severe.
Previous research demonstrates that children who were identified by the Behavioral and Emotional Screening System (BESS) as at–risk earned lower
report grades than their peers, whether or not they were deemed at–risk according to traditional teacher referral

Learning Behavior Essays
Learning Behavior
Psychologists have preformed many studies and proposed many theories regarding learning. Learning can be defined as a relatively permanent change
in behavior that is due to past experience. John B. Watson was an early psychologist that didn't agree with many other psychologist's ideas about
learning only relating to consciousness and thought processes. As the founder of behaviorism, Watson studied learning in a behavioral perspective, an
approach that emphasizes the relationship between outwardly observable behaviors and environmental events, rather than mental processes. Classical
conditioning is a process of learning associations between stimuli used by Ivan Pavlov, a Russian physiologist. In...show more content...
Skinner believed that classical conditioning was limited to behaviors that are reflexively elicited. An operant describes behaviors that are "operate upon
the environment to generate consequences." Reinforcement follows an operant and increases the likelihood of the operant being repeated. There are
two forms of reinforcement: positive and negative reinforcement. When an event occurs producing a positive effect, it is considered positive
reinforcement. Negative reinforcement involves the removal of a stimulus increasing the likelihood of a positive effect. An example of this would be to
take two aspirins to remove the pain from a headache. Punishment is a process that decreases the likelihood of a behavior to occur again. This is not to
be confused with negative reinforcement because it doesn't increase the likelihood of an occurrence. There are drawbacks to punishment. It doesn't
teach an appropriate behavior to replace an inappropriate one. Also, intense punishment can lead to results such as passivity, fear, anxiety, or hostility.
Finally, effects of punishment are sometimes temporary. An alternative to punishment is trying to change the behavior of others. First, stop reinforcing
the problem behavior by identifying the reinforcer and eliminating it. When it is not possible to eliminate the reinforcement, remove the opportunity to
obtain positive reinforcement. An example of this would be time–out for a child because he or she is no longer

conversation, it is understood as to 'behave well'. As for the phrase 'to behave badly', it is understood immediately.
Behavior is looked at in society as the way a person presents him or herself in a given situation. It is also related to the specialized sense of manners.
Use of the noun to refer to public conduct or, in a moral sense, to a general range of activities is still quite common.
But the term is also used in relation to plants, lower organisms and animals to describe the apparent activity of the whole organism.

Different stages of bourgeois society led to different stages of the capitalist mode of economic production. It is often difficult to separate the meaning
of bourgeois from the meaning used to describe historically distinct periods and phrases of social and cultural development. The bourgeois ideology of
settled independent citizens is clearly not the same as the bourgeois ideology of the highly mobile agents of a para–national corporation. There are also
some problems between bourgeois and capitalist, which are often used interchangeably but which are primarily distinguishable as social and economic
terms.
There can be difficulties of usage, associated with some of the most intense controversies of analysis, when the same word is used for the whole
society in which one class is dominate and for a specific class within that whole society.

Definition– the word Bureaucracy originated in English in the middle of the 1900's. The word bureau had its meaning of a writing desk with drawers.

different meanings have been taken to affect.

Behaviors, are what people do and say, as humans, we notice how certain behaviors can be desirable but also undesirable. Though behavior
modification, a person can attempt to alter a specific behavior by analyzing the behavior, and create a personalized plan to modify the behavior.
When analyzing the behavior a person needs to decide if the behavior is either is in excess (to decrease the undesirable behavior) or deficit (to
increase desirable behavior). Once behavior is the selected, then the person must decide if they desire to increase or decrease their behavior.
Afterwards, the person needs to create a plan of action, this depends on their research design and recording method. The plan action is personalized
for each study. Behavior modification allows a person to analyze a specific behavior and use a scientific technique to test if their treatment

Essay about Behavior Psychology
Behavior Psychology Psychology is defined as a science that focuses on the study of and to explain the way human's think, behave, and feel. The
behaviourist school of psychology is concerned with the explanation of behaviour through observable outcomes without making reference to mental
events. Behaviourism is very narrow and can be strongly objected in its approach to psychology as it does not consider the mental thought process
involvement in behaviour. This school of psychology is very much about nurture rather than...show more content...
The belief is that human behaviour can be trained because human emotions are so malleable therefore personality is forever changeable (Cohen, 1979).
Behaviour is simply a reaction to a stimulus which once learned becomes part of learned habit. It was also believed learning occurs through the
reinforcement of certain aspects of the situation. Reinforcement is when something is added to the situation which makes the same reaction in that
situation more likely in future (McInerney, 1998). The belief was that most of behaviour is a result of what has been learnt, which is to say that it is the
result of the environment rather than biological influences. Therefore the study of learning and the conditions under which it occurs is the core project
of behaviourism (Tennant, 1997) Behaviouristic therapy is aimed at the modification of behaviour especially undesirable ones by mainly reinforcing
the desirable behaviour and suppressing or punishing the undesirable and unwanted behaviour. Once the therapist has identified the behaviour and
triggering factors they may employ several techniques to condition or recondition the person's behaviour. These methods of therapy have been derived
and adapted by experiments done by earlier behaviourists such as Pavlov, Watson and Skinner. Methods used today

Classroom behavior management is considered to be one of the most important factors to determine student's behaviors. With that being said, the study
evaluated classroom behavior strategies that are aligned with Positive Behavioral Interventions Supports (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013).
According to research, the impact of SW–PBIS has reduced problem behaviors and increased academic performance. However, despite the increase of
PBIS many teachers continue to struggle with managing student behavior in the classroom (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). Often times ineffective
classroom management negatively impacts students behaviors in where they are given less academic instruction. This is important because teacher's
implementation of effective practices becomes affected by their job demands. Teachers are therefore less likely to have effective implementations if
they are emotionally exhausted or lack self–efficacy (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). More importantly, if teachers implement PBIS in their
classrooms with positive stated rules and expectations they are more likely to praise their students and reduce behavioral problems. Whereas, teachers
with higher rates of student disruptive behavior are more likely to have lower self–efficacy and emotional exhaustion (Reinke, Herman &Stormont,
2013). By all means, support has to be given to teachers in the field to protect children from having negative teacher–student interactions. The study

Reflective Essay On Student Behavior
Initial thoughts: Ms. Rollison needs to understand that students behave differently which will require a different way to approach their behavior. In
most cases, when a student is acting out it is due to something stressful they are experiencing. A young student does not communicate their wants and
needs well, this causes them to express their emotion is not the best manner. When children need are not met they will misbehave more frequently.
Therefore, Ms. Rollison will need to understand and have patience with the student because there is always a reason behind why the student is
misbehaving.
Final thoughts: Students behavior can be influenced by many things such as their cultural influences, living situation, and what they are exposed to. Ms.
Rollison needs to be aware of the cultural influence that affects the student's behavior. Every culture is different and it influences how a student will
interact and respond to authority. Culture can influence the way they talk with their peers, views on sharing, and the way they act all around. Having
many students with different culture background leads to a diverse class with different views on how they act toward their peers.
Ms. Rollison needs to approach the classroom with an open mind and interact with the kids and learn their behaviors. Moreover, she needs to learn
what impact their behavior and understand that not everybody views the world the same because outside factors play a role in the student's behavior.
Something that Ms. Rollison views as being impolite or rude, might be seen as something suitable in her student's culture. Understanding other students
culture is extremely important because when she creates her classroom management plan, she will know what will be appropriate for her students.
Question 2: What can Ms. Rollison do to increase the chances that her students will behave appropriately in class?
Initial thoughts: There is many technique Ms. Rollison can use to help with her students behaving appropriately in the classroom. One technique she
could use is at the beginning of the year ask the students what type of rule they would like to have in the classroom. The student will more likely obey
the class rules because they had a part in

The And Managing Student Behavior Essay
PBIS and Managing Student Behavior
Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a multi–tier strategy based on student outcome as opposed to a set curriculum. In a classroom
it is based on 6 essential practices, but the strategies can, and should be implemented school wide for maximum benefit. The following will offer
some history on PBIS, a breakdown of the 6 essential classroom practices, and a brief description of what a three tier strategy would encompass.
History
Positive Behavior Interventions and Strategies (PBIS) was developed in the 1980's in response to a need for a more effective management of students
with Behavior Disorders (BD) behaviors (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). Research done at the University of Oregon found that emphasis should be placed
on behavior prevention, and social skill instruction in a school wide system (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). In 1997 with the revision of the Individuals
with Disabilities Act (IDEA) a grant was included to establish a National Center on Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports. The national center
was established with the goal of providing technical assistance to schools for the support of students with BD (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012).
PBIS has its roots in intervention for students with BD, but a shift has taken place to PBIS being a school wide behavioral support. PBIS is now
defined as evidence based interventions to achieve academically and behaviorally important outcomes for all students (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012).

Teachers these days are indubitably facing many challenges regarding their students' attitudes and behaviours towards learning and managing a
classroom. Teachers have an important role to play in creating a positive classroom environment that is conducive to learning, keeping their students
engaged and motivated to learn.
There are many factors that contribute to a students' level of interest and engagement in learning and teachers have little control over these factors
(Lumsden, 1994). Teachers can influence student motivation by using certain practices. (Anderman and Midgley, 1998). Under the tenets ofoperant
conditioning originated by B.F Skinner, it is described as a process which attempts to modify behaviour through the use of reinforcements. Through
operant conditioning, an individual makes an association between a particular behaviour and a consequence.
As we know, students' behaviours vary and differ in terms of their abilities and attitudes in a classroom. With frequently expressed behaviours such as
being disruptive, unruly and anti–social, it has negatively affected the teaching and learning processes based on discussions in past researches that
students are becoming difficult to teach. However, there are many potential influences on a student's behaviour and factors that had led to a student
behaving a certain way.

Student Behavior Change

  • 1. Student Behavior Change There are trends that have developed among young adults that are quite troubling. Studies from the Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention show that 70 percent of deaths of ten to twenty–four year olds come by way of automobile crashes, accidental injuries, homicide, and suicide (Bristol 4). These high numbers are due to the fact that people are making poor decisions that could have been prevented. Numbers by the Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System show that an upwards of 20% of college students have driven under the influence of alcohol (Johnson 68). This statistic is especially concerning as many involved are aged below the legal drinking age. The college years are the time that many students develop good and bad health behaviors. It is only fitting that an informational health course...show more content... Students and alumni that have taken a physical activity lab in conjunction with the lecture section have shown a more positive attitude towards physical fitness then those who have just taken a lecture based course (Esslinger 164). This lab class gives you a more hands on approach to the information learned in the lecture course. Activities such as nutrition label reading, various exercise demonstrations as well as behavior change projects can be offered. (McBride 357). A behavior change project is a personal assessment of a certain problem behavior in your life that you would like to change. This could be anywhere from quitting smoking, to eating your daily values of fruits and vegetables. The course helps you realize the problem, sets up a very specific plan to help aid you in your process to fulfilling that goal, and shows you how to track your progress. This process gives you all the necessary tools and motivation to put you on the right path for healthier changes in the future. All the student then needs to do is commit to their behavior change to put it in effect (Esslinger Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 2. Reflection Paper On Student Behavior Student Interactions The teacher is very smart and the class only consists of 23 students, but he has high expectations which requires the whole class to answer questions as he is solving a graph, equation, or function which was presented on the MoviBoard. The teacher does not call on a single person or group to answer the questions which allows the students to answer freely within the class discussions. The teacher calls on the class as a whole and typically everyone participates. I would say 95% of the students answer and follow through with the teacher's solutions. If not, during group work, they typically answer each other's questions within their groups. The students answer each other's questions whenever the teacher or classmate makes a mistake to enforce the correct solution is being presented in class. They do this so whenever they are looking back at their notes, they are able to study the correct material. Within the classroom, there is a friendly environment where everyone interacts with each other. The classroom itself can get pretty loud, but we can tell they care for their grade because they are discussing mathematical solutions. Although more than 90% of the class students are Hispanic, the class spoke English only during the observation and class discussions. The expectation for student behavior toward each other is high, which allows them to create a respectable environment with one another. Reflection for Calculus I: The classroom room environment was very respectful as the students addressed their peers and professor in an orderly manner. When my partner and I introduced ourselves, I used an attention getter and the students were quiet and respectful as they listen to us inviting them to our PBI Lesson in December. The decorations in the classroom consisted of a Word Wall which had trigonometric formulas, limit formulas, derivate examples, and even posters with word problems. These posters in the classroom can make a big difference because they allow the students to reinforce ideas, concepts, or formulas they forget throughout the school semester. The teacher has Inspire, Ti–89 and scientific calculators available to his students to use only as resources to check their Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 3. The purpose of this project is to analyze the components of an effective Positive Behavior Support Plan and the effect a positive behavior support plan has on student behavior and academic achievement when compared to those students who are considered high risk and not have a behavior support plan in place. The goal is to help the students monitor their own behavior, increase their academic achievement and eliminate the possibility of an involuntary transfer to an alternative education setting such as continuation high school. The 1997 amendments to the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) made functional behavioral assessment (FBA) and positive behavior support legal requirements for schools serving student with disabilities. The 2004 reauthorization of IDEA retains the emphasis on supporting students using FBA–guided positive behavior support (Benazzi, 2006). Positive Behavior Support is a problem–solving approach to understanding reasons for problem behavior and designing comprehensive interventions that are matched to hypotheses about why problem behavior is occurring and to the individual's unique social, environmental and cultural milieu. A critical goal of PBS is not just to reduce problem behaviors in the short term, but also to create long lasting changes that will have an impact on the individuals overall quality of life (Safran, 2006). The increase of disruptive and dangerous behavior in schools has reached alarming proportions. As a consequence, Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 4. Classroom Behavior Essay Would you be surprised to learn that in today's classroom children sometimes aren't learning due to behavioral issues? Teachers are attempting to teach classes in which students can be disruptive, disrespectful and defiant. Classrooms are often overcrowded which adds to the frustration of the situation. Teachers are often tempted to take the easy way out, using antiquated strategies that will usually not help the child to learn. In fact, some types of punishments can actually cause the child to become even more rebellious. The child can experience a sense of worthlessness after being punished again and again. Children do not act out because they are "bad." They act out in the hopes of receiving some kind of response or reward. In the...show more content... On the other hand, if that child fills the need for attention by getting into trouble at school, they will get into trouble. Skinner tells us that "non–reinforcement leads to the extinction of a behavior." In other words if teachers figure out what the child is getting from exhibiting a particular behavior, they can then give that child the exact opposite of the expected response. If our response is consistent the child will eventually give up the behavior in lieu of another which yields more satisfying results. The reward system is sometimes turned around to reinforce poor behavior. Often, children who are misbehaving are looking for some sort of a reaction. It is possible that they believe that it is better to not even try than to try and fail. It could also be true that the only type of attention they receive comes from the instances in which they misbehave. Although as adults it may seem logical that one would avoid being singled out or chastised, children who have little sense of self worth will "take what they can get." Skinner calls his strategy for dealing with disruption "non–reinforcement." Skinner's theory claims that "non–reinforcement leads to extinction of behavior." By ignoring disruptive behavior, a teacher can extinguish it. Eventually, the disruptive student will realize that their behavior will not gain any response will seek another way to belong to the group. There are many Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 5. Emotional Behaviour Problems Essay Emotional Behaviour Problems Many children in today's world experience some form of emotional behavior. In some cases these emotions are not adequetly dealt with well by the child. How do teachers, the government, and parents deal with children who have behavior problems ranging from moderate, to severe? The answer is to follow. This paper will discuss five different articles which define what a behavior problem is, classroom management strategies for students and teachers, and the education environments that are best for children with Emotional or Behavioral Disorders. (EBD) Topics also included, community support, teacher perceptions of what is being done, and parent's perspectives on the services provided for their youths...show more content... This article was very informative. I was aware of the negative attitudes some teachers can have towards students having encountered a few of these myself. What I was unaware of, however, was that the reciprocal effect of negative behavior. When a teacher demands, a child reacts negatively and as such the teacher responds with more assertion. This obviously is not a good thing when trying to deal with children who have EBD. I also feel that the classroom strategies offered by the authors could be extremely helpful in future situations that I may encounter. Giving students the chance to participate in determining the rules may result in the desired positive effect. The second article I read, "Educational Environments for the pupil with Behavioral Disorders: A "Best Evidence" synthesis." By Barry H. Schnieder and Janice Leroux, discussed the progress of children with behavior problems in different educational environments. The authors reviewed different placements for students and the headway made by each I their settings. Many different methods were used to examine the research and get a 'best evidence' report from the collective research. The research found that while it is possible to use intervention in a classroom or a special school, the costs and limitation of staff and time were too many. The authors developed a technique called meta–analysis Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 6. Behaviour For Learning Introduction Behaviour for learning refers to the pressure on schools to constantly attempt to raise attainments (Department for Children, Schools and Families 2009). This has come about because of schools trying to raise standards for their students that can be identified in the teaching standards which promotes the raising of standard for students. Adams (2009) says 97 percent of new qualified teachers believe managing student behaviour is one of the most important issues for them in the teaching field. Behaviour cannot be separated from learning as they are intrinsically linked together (Ellis and Tod, 2009). Behaviour for learning therefore becomes one of the most important issue for newly qualified teachers and trainee teachers. This reflective writing will look at how the trainee teacher will building relationships in the classrooms as a means of promoting behaviour for learning. The 3 relationships that promote behaviour for learning...show more content... They are relationship with self, relationship with others and relationship with the curriculum. According to Ellis and Todd (2009) relationship with self involves the students understanding about him or herself in terms of self–esteem and motivation while relationship with others involves how the student relates to his or her peers, teachers and parents and lastly relationship with the curriculum is the ability of the student to access the curriculum and understand it as it is being taught to Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 7. Many behavior and social problems observed in children are related to poor classroom interventions that are designed to meet those needs. It is important that these models are applied during children's development through positive interactions in the family, childcare centre, school and the community. However, not all conceptual models are appropriate in assisting student withbehavior problems. Therefore, this essay will discuss appropriateness of the conceptual models to assisting students with behavior problems in schools that includes Biological/biophysical, Psychodynamic, Behavioural, Cognitive–behavioural, Sociological and Ecological models. Also this essay will explain how they can be accommodated by professionals to create a supportive early childhood, and promoting positive school climate to foster wellbeing, development and learning. The first model is the biological/biophysical model which generate negative expectations for individuals with disabilities that resulted from biophysical etiologies (Rosenberg, Wilson, Maheady, & Sindelar, 2004).Therefore , this model is inappropriate as some professional working with students with known biophysical impairment can be judgmental and low expectations of their performance (Kauffman,1985). Hence, professional and educators must be responsible to educate all students with no exceptions. They should integrate key principles into everyday instructional techniques and classroom practices and looking for opportunities to Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 8. Disrespectful Behavior In School One behavioral issue that can be observed in schools is disrespect. Being respectful means that you show others you care about their feelings and well–being. Whereas, disrespectful behavior shows little regard for the feelings of others. Disrespect towards teachers specifically, can present as disruptive and confrontational behavior (McNeely, 2017). For example, a student displaying disrespectful behavior may say that they do not care about the lesson, or say that their teacher is stupid. Students may exhibit disrespectful behaviors for several reasons. One of these reasons being that they lack an understanding of respect and have limited experiences with receiving or showing respect (Borba, 2017). It is important to consider a student's background when they display disrespectful behaviors (McNeely, 2017). If students have not seen respect modeled frequently in their lives, it is understandable that may not understand this behavior (Borba, 2017). Another reason that students may react with disrespect, or display these negative behaviors is that they do not feel respected themselves (McNeely, 2017). Students that do not feel respected in the classroom may act out. Furthermore, if the student is not treated respectfully this can lead to confrontations, power struggles, and disruptions (McNeely, 2017). Some teachers aspire only to be respected. Consequently, they forget to respect their students (Tomlinson, 2011). There are many ways that a teacher can address Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 9. Positive Behavior Reflection Paper I first read the article about positive behavioral supports. I gained an insight about the importance of knowing and observing the child. If we do not carefully do observation, we could misunderstand why a child is behaving a certain way. If we do not understand the why, then we cannot solve the problem. We need to know the purpose of thebehavior so we can teach an alternate behavior that provides the same purpose as the undesired behavior. We as teachers can also lessen the amount of times a student is exposed to the trigger which causes the behavior. If we do all of these parts we can help a child overcome the negative behavior and replace it with a positive behavior. I am going to practice looking at what trigger's Matthew's bad behavior so that I can avoid those triggers. This will help me learn the process so I will be a more effective teacher when I have my own classroom. I had an insight when reading the article about preventing challenging behavior. I did not realize the importance of making sure the activities are interesting to the child. However, after pondering it I realized it is such a powerful tool. That is why we need to differentiate our instruction so that all of our students find it engaging. It is so much easier to prevent bad behavior than to fix it. As a teacher I am going to make sure I am being proactive in my lesson planning. I am going to prevent problems by taking a little extra time to make sure my lessons are engaging all my students.

Essay On Student Behavior Student Behavior in the United States Education System Approximately 20% of children exhibit symptoms consists with a diagnosable mental disorder; however, children often do not receive mental health services until their symptoms have become severe, and only 1% are identified with an emotional and/or behavior disorder in the school setting and receive special education for these disorders. Additionally, children who do not have a diagnosis, but exhibit challenges with social and behavioral skills, tend to have challenges in the academic setting, but often to do also receive effective supports. Researchers estimate that between one and 5% of children have a severe emotional and/or behavioral disorder (Costello, Mustillo, Erkanli, Keller, ...show more content... MTSS as Prevention. Schools are an ideal place to assist children with mental health issues. Using a preventive model, such as the MTSS model described above, to catch problems early may prevent children from developing more serious or longer–term problems. Research indicates that treating children who are at–risk for emotional and behavioral problems can decrease the likelihood that they will later be diagnosed with a mental health disorder while also lowering the healthcare costs. However, traditionally, behavior problems have not been addressed until a student receives one or more office discipline referrals, and there tends to be a two–year gap between the time that the child first receives an outside diagnosis and when they begin receiving services in the schools. Universal screeners provide schools information that may help prevent future office disciplinary referrals and prevent future behavior challenges. Therefore, providing a universal screener may identify children who would otherwise not receive services until the problem behavior becomes severe. Previous research demonstrates that children who were identified by the Behavioral and Emotional Screening System (BESS) as at–risk earned lower report grades than their peers, whether or not they were deemed at–risk according to traditional teacher referral Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 11. Learning Behavior Essays Learning Behavior Psychologists have preformed many studies and proposed many theories regarding learning. Learning can be defined as a relatively permanent change in behavior that is due to past experience. John B. Watson was an early psychologist that didn't agree with many other psychologist's ideas about learning only relating to consciousness and thought processes. As the founder of behaviorism, Watson studied learning in a behavioral perspective, an approach that emphasizes the relationship between outwardly observable behaviors and environmental events, rather than mental processes. Classical conditioning is a process of learning associations between stimuli used by Ivan Pavlov, a Russian physiologist. In...show more content... Skinner believed that classical conditioning was limited to behaviors that are reflexively elicited. An operant describes behaviors that are "operate upon the environment to generate consequences." Reinforcement follows an operant and increases the likelihood of the operant being repeated. There are two forms of reinforcement: positive and negative reinforcement. When an event occurs producing a positive effect, it is considered positive reinforcement. Negative reinforcement involves the removal of a stimulus increasing the likelihood of a positive effect. An example of this would be to take two aspirins to remove the pain from a headache. Punishment is a process that decreases the likelihood of a behavior to occur again. This is not to be confused with negative reinforcement because it doesn't increase the likelihood of an occurrence. There are drawbacks to punishment. It doesn't teach an appropriate behavior to replace an inappropriate one. Also, intense punishment can lead to results such as passivity, fear, anxiety, or hostility. Finally, effects of punishment are sometimes temporary. An alternative to punishment is trying to change the behavior of others. First, stop reinforcing the problem behavior by identifying the reinforcer and eliminating it. When it is not possible to eliminate the reinforcement, remove the opportunity to obtain positive reinforcement. An example of this would be time–out for a child because he or she is no longer Get more content on HelpWriting.net

To use the word behave in common conversation, it is understood as to 'behave well'. As for the phrase 'to behave badly', it is understood immediately. Behavior is looked at in society as the way a person presents him or herself in a given situation. It is also related to the specialized sense of manners. Use of the noun to refer to public conduct or, in a moral sense, to a general range of activities is still quite common. But the term is also used in relation to plants, lower organisms and animals to describe the apparent activity of the whole organism.

It is often difficult to separate the meaning of bourgeois from the meaning used to describe historically distinct periods and phrases of social and cultural development. The bourgeois ideology of settled independent citizens is clearly not the same as the bourgeois ideology of the highly mobile agents of a para–national corporation. There are also some problems between bourgeois and capitalist, which are often used interchangeably but which are primarily distinguishable as social and economic terms. There can be difficulties of usage, associated with some of the most intense controversies of analysis, when the same word is used for the whole society in which one class is dominate and for a specific class within that whole society. Bureaucracy– Definition– the word Bureaucracy originated in English in the middle of the 1900's. The word bureau had its meaning of a writing desk with drawers. The American use of Bureaucracy has become more common, especially with references to foreign branches. As the word bureaucracy evolved, many different meanings have been taken to affect. The increasing scale of commercial organization, with a corresponding increase in government intervention and legal controls, and with the increasing importance of organized and professional central government, produced the political facts to which the new term pointed.

  • 14. Behaviors, are what people do and say, as humans, we notice how certain behaviors can be desirable but also undesirable. Though behavior modification, a person can attempt to alter a specific behavior by analyzing the behavior, and create a personalized plan to modify the behavior. When analyzing the behavior a person needs to decide if the behavior is either is in excess (to decrease the undesirable behavior) or deficit (to increase desirable behavior). Once behavior is the selected, then the person must decide if they desire to increase or decrease their behavior. Afterwards, the person needs to create a plan of action, this depends on their research design and recording method. The plan action is personalized for each study. Behavior modification allows a person to analyze a specific behavior and use a scientific technique to test if their treatment /intervention will modify their behavior. For example, I choose a target behavior to modify this semester which was studying. I had a behavioral deficit in studying that I desired to address, I wished to increase my time studying by twenty–five percent. My definition of studying was any time (in minutes) that I dedicated to focusing on material necessary for my current classes, some examples are reading material for class, doing assignments for class (homework or essays), and reviewing material for exams (additional reading, notes, or index cards).

  • 15. Essay about Behavior Psychology Behavior Psychology Psychology is defined as a science that focuses on the study of and to explain the way human's think, behave, and feel. The behaviourist school of psychology is concerned with the explanation of behaviour through observable outcomes without making reference to mental events. Behaviourism is very narrow and can be strongly objected in its approach to psychology as it does not consider the mental thought process involvement in behaviour. This school of psychology is very much about nurture rather than...show more content... The belief is that human behaviour can be trained because human emotions are so malleable therefore personality is forever changeable (Cohen, 1979). Behaviour is simply a reaction to a stimulus which once learned becomes part of learned habit. It was also believed learning occurs through the reinforcement of certain aspects of the situation. Reinforcement is when something is added to the situation which makes the same reaction in that situation more likely in future (McInerney, 1998). The belief was that most of behaviour is a result of what has been learnt, which is to say that it is the result of the environment rather than biological influences. Therefore the study of learning and the conditions under which it occurs is the core project of behaviourism (Tennant, 1997) Behaviouristic therapy is aimed at the modification of behaviour especially undesirable ones by mainly reinforcing the desirable behaviour and suppressing or punishing the undesirable and unwanted behaviour. Once the therapist has identified the behaviour and triggering factors they may employ several techniques to condition or recondition the person's behaviour. These methods of therapy have been derived and adapted by experiments done by earlier behaviourists such as Pavlov, Watson and Skinner. Methods used today Get more content on HelpWriting.net
  • 16. Classroom behavior management is considered to be one of the most important factors to determine student's behaviors. With that being said, the study evaluated classroom behavior strategies that are aligned with Positive Behavioral Interventions Supports (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). According to research, the impact of SW–PBIS has reduced problem behaviors and increased academic performance. However, despite the increase of PBIS many teachers continue to struggle with managing student behavior in the classroom (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). Often times ineffective classroom management negatively impacts students behaviors in where they are given less academic instruction. This is important because teacher's implementation of effective practices becomes affected by their job demands. Teachers are therefore less likely to have effective implementations if they are emotionally exhausted or lack self–efficacy (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). More importantly, if teachers implement PBIS in their classrooms with positive stated rules and expectations they are more likely to praise their students and reduce behavioral problems. Whereas, teachers with higher rates of student disruptive behavior are more likely to have lower self–efficacy and emotional exhaustion (Reinke, Herman &Stormont, 2013). By all means, support has to be given to teachers in the field to protect children from having negative teacher–student interactions.

  • 17. Reflective Essay On Student Behavior Initial thoughts: Ms. Rollison needs to understand that students behave differently which will require a different way to approach their behavior. In most cases, when a student is acting out it is due to something stressful they are experiencing. A young student does not communicate their wants and needs well, this causes them to express their emotion is not the best manner. When children need are not met they will misbehave more frequently. Therefore, Ms. Rollison will need to understand and have patience with the student because there is always a reason behind why the student is misbehaving. Final thoughts: Students behavior can be influenced by many things such as their cultural influences, living situation, and what they are exposed to. Ms. Rollison needs to be aware of the cultural influence that affects the student's behavior. Every culture is different and it influences how a student will interact and respond to authority. Culture can influence the way they talk with their peers, views on sharing, and the way they act all around. Having many students with different culture background leads to a diverse class with different views on how they act toward their peers. Ms. Rollison needs to approach the classroom with an open mind and interact with the kids and learn their behaviors.

  • 18. The And Managing Student Behavior Essay PBIS and Managing Student Behavior Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports (PBIS) is a multi–tier strategy based on student outcome as opposed to a set curriculum. In a classroom it is based on 6 essential practices, but the strategies can, and should be implemented school wide for maximum benefit. The following will offer some history on PBIS, a breakdown of the 6 essential classroom practices, and a brief description of what a three tier strategy would encompass. History Positive Behavior Interventions and Strategies (PBIS) was developed in the 1980's in response to a need for a more effective management of students with Behavior Disorders (BD) behaviors (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). Research done at the University of Oregon found that emphasis should be placed on behavior prevention, and social skill instruction in a school wide system (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). In 1997 with the revision of the Individuals with Disabilities Act (IDEA) a grant was included to establish a National Center on Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports. The national center was established with the goal of providing technical assistance to schools for the support of students with BD (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). PBIS has its roots in intervention for students with BD, but a shift has taken place to PBIS being a school wide behavioral support. PBIS is now defined as evidence based interventions to achieve academically and behaviorally important outcomes for all students (Sugai & Simonsen, 2012). Get more content on HelpWriting.net

Teachers have an important role to play in creating a positive classroom environment that is conducive to learning, keeping their students engaged and motivated to learn. There are many factors that contribute to a students' level of interest and engagement in learning and teachers have little control over these factors (Lumsden, 1994). Teachers can influence student motivation by using certain practices. (Anderman and Midgley, 1998). Under the tenets ofoperant conditioning originated by B.F Skinner, it is described as a process which attempts to modify behaviour through the use of reinforcements. Through operant conditioning, an individual makes an association between a particular behaviour and a consequence. As we know, students' behaviours vary and differ in terms of their abilities and attitudes in a classroom. With frequently expressed behaviours such as being disruptive, unruly and anti–social, it has negatively affected the teaching and learning processes based on discussions in past researches that students are becoming difficult to teach. However, there are many potential influences on a student's behaviour and factors that had led to a student behaving a certain way. This paper will show you the technique and application of operant conditioning and examples in shaping the behaviours of Secondary 2 students in a Get more content on HelpWriting.net
