CASE INSURING TRAINING SUCCESS AT FARMERS1
Farmers Insurance has developed a strategic plan to support company growth, productivity and leadership. A cornerstone to this plan is intensive training. While the depth and scope of all the training programs is far too much to list here we can provide a summary of their approach to providing more immersive and extensive learning opportunities for their employees. The key seems to be blending a variety of methods and delivery systems that are aligned with the goals of the program (which are tied to the strategic plan), and the needs of the potential trainees.
Most of the programs blend instructor-led and online training modules, with coaching sessions. They can also include reading and self-study components. Instructor-led classroom activities contain the typical lectures and discussions, but are interspersed with hands on activities such as role-plays, role modeling, case analysis, and business games.
The use of technical innovation doesn’t stop with online systems. Farmers has a new 58,000-square-foot campus in Grand Rapids, MI, where they incorporate technology into the classroom experience. Multiple projection surfaces allowing a 360-degree view of the materials being presented combine with interactive whiteboards that allow trainers to move the “front of the room” to the center middle of the training space. Tablets (such as iPads) are used not only in remote locations, but also in the classroom. They are used to disseminate handouts, exercise instructions, and the like. Videos are also downloaded to the trainee for things like immediate feedback of skill practice sessions, as well as storage and replay of training videos.
OVERVIEW OF THE CHAPTER
This chapter provides a basic understanding of traditional training methods in terms of their strengths and limitations related to cost, suitable learning objectives, and other factors related to their effectiveness. In Chapter 7, we will discuss the same issues as they relate to electronic training. Most of the methods discussed in this chapter would be delivered via the classroom. A recent survey of more than 400 companies across all major industries shows that instructor led, classroom training is the most frequent mode of delivery. When the instructor is either on-line or live, this accounts for about 70 percent of the training being delivered. About 60 percent of this (or 42 percent of the total) occurs with a live instructor.2

Assignment 2: Fink Step 3
Due Week 7 and worth 200 points
For this assignment, you will look at the technology you have integrated into your unit/training and develop ways to assess student performance when they use those technologies.
Often, educators find a great new technology or app to use with their students but then have no idea how to evaluate if it is actually helping students learn. Or, educators find that grading student performance using the new technology is cumbersome and doesn’t actually save any time or provide any value.
For example, if students have an assignment to create a PowerPoint presentation, how will they submit it to you? How will you check to make sure they didn’t just copy it from someplace on the Internet? If students are working on a group project, how can you assess student contributions? These are some issues you will need to think about when you apply technology to your lessons.
First, provide a brief (1-2 pages) description of the specific education technology you intend to incorporate into your unit/training. Include links to the product or app and describe how the students will use it. You do not need to provide specific lesson plans, but need to demonstrate that you have a clear idea of what you want the students to use and how they will use it.
For example, if you were to start using MS Office in the classroom, you could describe how you would allow students to type their papers using MS Word and create presentations using MS PowerPoint instead of hand-writing papers and doing traditional poster projects.
Next, complete the questions for Step 3 of page 15 of Fink’s guide. Include the following information when you answer each question in the worksheet. You will have to copy each question to a new Word document in order to answer it.
1. Forward-looking Assessment: The key is that you have students work on real-world problems. Think about how they will apply the knowledge you are teaching as well as how they will use the technology in the future. How can you create assessments such as a class project, portfolio assignment, a case-study, or other activity where they apply their knowledge?
2. Criteria & Standards: Think about what qualifies as poor work that does not meet your standards, satisfactory work that does meet your standards, and excellent work that exceeds your standards. Be specific. Look at your assignment rubrics for examples of this.
3. Self-Assessment: Students should have some idea of how they are doing without having to ask the teacher or instructor. How will you help them evaluate their own work and learning as they work on their assignments?
4. “FIDeLity” Feedback: This will be the formal feedback that you will give to students as well as informal feedback you will give them as they work on their assignments and assessments.
It would be a good idea to use the information that you provided for the discussion questions in the following weeks. (Note: you are not expected to use all of it if ...

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

3. Before We Intervene……..
Prior to implementing BP-PBS in your school, it is important to understand the signals and layout
most ideal for your specific setting. By giving these issues adequate consideration, the program will have
a higher likelihood of being embraced by the students and staff.
The Stop Signal
As discussed, Bully Prevention in Positive Behavior Support describes a 3 step response to problem
behavior, including ““Stop””, ““Walk””, and ““Talk. This terminology is adequate for most settings, but for
some (particularly older students), this language may seem childish or ““uncool””. Therefore, the language
used for each of the three steps should be discussed prior to program implementation. Older students
may wish to vote on the signals or staff may decide what signals will work best for their school, but two
critical elements must be kept in mind. First, the signals must be short, easy to remember, and easy to
produce. Complicated signals will only reduce the amount they are used. Second, whatever signal your
school decides on, the ENTIRE school must implement it. Different classrooms or grades must not have
their own signal. Doing so will eliminate the clarity of the response sequence.
The following are examples of statements that may be used in the place of ““stop””:
““enough””
““time-out””
““quit-it””
““overboard””
““too far””
““un-cool””
The hand signal that accompanies the ““stop”” command should also be discussed, and might
include:
BP-PBS: Before We Intervene ii-1
4. Curriculum Delivery Layout
In addition to the specified language, it is important to understand how Bully Prevention in Positive
Behavior Support can be taught most effectively. For this purpose, the program has been broken into 6
lessons. Lesson 1 includes most of the curriculum components including the stop/walk,/talk response,
and also includes a good deal of class-wide practice. This lesson is the longest of the 6 and takes
approximately 50 minutes to complete. The second lesson, ideally delivered on the following day, only
takes 30 minutes, and includes how to reply when someone delivers the stop/walk/talk response to you,
and also includes some essential group practice.
The following 4 sections of the manual cover specific examples of how to use the stop/walk/talk
response appropriately, and should be delivered for 10-15 minutes one or two times a week. More
specifically, following 3 sections involve practice around how to respond to gossip, inappropriate
remarks, and cyber-bullying. The 4th is a generic practice lesson for use with other specific problem
behaviors that may surface at your school.
Section 6 is the supervision curriculum. This section clarifies how supervision should be
conducted in unstructured settings such as the cafeteria, gym, hallways, and playground. Delivered in
each applicable setting, this practice involves reviewing how to respond to reports of problem behavior,
how to reinforce appropriate use of stop/walk/talk, and how to check in with chronic targets and
instigators. This is a critical part of BP-PBS as supervisors play an enormous role in the generalization of
lessons learned inside the classroom. If we fail to respond to reports of problem behavior outside the
classroom appropriately, the likelihood that children will use the program components will drop
significantly.
Section 7, the faculty follow-up, is an opportunity to check how the program is working. Based
on the responses to a small survey, changes can be made in how the program is implemented.
Finally, section 8 includes all the citations used throughout the manual as well as resources
applicable to the effective and efficient use of the program.

Sometimes, even when students tell others to ““stop””, problem _________________
behavior will continue. When this happens, students are to
"walk away" from the problem behavior. _________________
_________________
Model "walking away" when students experience _________________
continued problem behavior or when they see another
_________________
student experiencing continued problem behavior
• Remind students that walking away removes _________________
the reinforcement for problem behavior _________________
• Teach students to encourage one another when _________________
they use the appropriate response
_________________
Practice "walking away" with student volunteers at the _________________
front of the class _________________
Include at least 3 examples of how to "walk _________________
away" and at least one example of when not to.
_________________
_________________
3. Talk: report problems to an adult _________________
Teach students that even when they use ““stop”” and they ““walk
_________________
away”” from the problem, sometimes students will continue to _________________
behave inappropriately toward them. When that happens, _________________
students should "talk" to an adult _________________
Model the "talk" technique students should use when
_________________
they experience continued problem behavior or when _________________
they see another student experiencing continued _________________
problem behavior _________________
_________________
Be sure to discuss the line between "talking" and tattling. _________________
• "Talking" is when you have tried to solve the problem _________________
yourself, and have used the "stop" and "walk" steps first:
Did you request "stop"?
_________________
Did you "walk away"? _________________
• Tattling is when you do not use the "stop" and "walk away" _________________
steps before "talking" to an adult _________________
• Tattling is when your goal is to get the other person in trouble

Supervising Behavior
Objectives:
Pre-Correction
Rewarding use of the 3 step response
Responding to Reports of Problem Behavior
Introduction Notes:__________
How supervisors respond to problem behavior can make or break
________________
________________
the results of the Bully Prevention in Positive Behavior Support
________________
program. Because their role is so important, a separate, specific time
________________
is allotted for practice in the settings where bullying occurs: the ________________
cafeteria, hallways, gym, playground, etc. During this time, ________________
supervisors practice (a) pre-correcting students before incidents ________________
occur, (b) frequently reward students for their use of the curriculum ________________
components, and (c) consistently responding to reports of problem ________________
behavior. As generalization is a major concern, it is critical that ________________
supervisors be prepared to reward students the first time they use
________________
________________
one of the BP-PBS strategies. In addition, during the practice session,
________________
the supervisors should walk around in each setting, discussing how
________________
they will pre-correct, reward appropriate behavior, and respond to ________________
problematic behavior. The supervisor practice session should ideally ________________
take place prior to teaching the student curriculum so that they are ________________
prepared for the first time that students use what they have learned. ________________

Notes:____________
The Social Responsibility Skills (Stop/Walk/Talk) _________________
_________________
It is very important that all staff are fluent with the 3 step

least 2 non-examples (When not to use the 3-step response) _________________
_________________
_________________
The Stop Signal _________________
How the stop signal should look and sound
o Firm hand signal _________________
o Eye contact _________________
o Clear voice
Practice modeling the stop signal for students that _________________

students experiencing problem behavior _________________
_________________
Walk Away _________________
Sometimes, even when students tell others to ““stop””, _________________
problem behavior will continue. When this happens, _________________
students are to "walk away" from the problem behavior.
_________________
Practice modeling "walking away" when students _________________
experience continued problem behavior or when they _________________
see another student experiencing continued problem
behavior
_________________
• Staff should remind students that walking away _________________
removes the reinforcement for problem _________________
behavior
• Teach students to encourage one another

when they use the appropriate response _________________
_________________
Talk: report problem to an adult _________________
_________________
Even when students use ““stop”” and they ““walk away”” from

inappropriately toward them. When that happens, _________________
students should "talk" to an adult. _________________

26. Supervising Behavior
Checking In Notes:____________
In addition to understanding and teaching the appropriate _________________
response to problem behavior, it is important to remind
some students about how they should respond, either when
_________________
they exhibit problem behavior, or when problem behavior is _________________
exhibited toward them. _________________
For chronic victims of problem behavior
_________________
_________________
1. At the beginning of non-classroom times _________________
(morning break, recess, etc.), check in with the
student and remind them about how to
_________________
respond to problem behavior. _________________
2. At the end of non-classroom times, check in _________________
again, ask about how it went, and reward them
for their efforts. _________________
_________________
For chronic perpetrators of problem behavior _________________
1. At the beginning of non-classroom times, check _________________
in with the student and remind them about _________________
how to respond if another student tells them to _________________
stop, or walks away.
2. At the end of non-classroom times, check in _________________
again, ask about how it went, and reward them _________________
for their efforts. _________________
_________________
Rewarding Appropriate Behavior _________________
Effective Generalization Requires the prompt reinforcement
of appropriate behavior after the FIRST time it is attempted _________________
_________________
1. Look for students that use the 3 step response
appropriately and reward
_________________
2. Students that struggle with problem behavior _________________
(either as victim or perpetrator) are less likely to _________________
attempt new approaches.
3. Reward them for efforts in the right direction. _________________
_________________
Responding to Reports of Problem Behavior _________________
When any problem behavior is reported, follow this specific _________________
response:
_________________
Reinforce the student for reporting the problem _________________
behavior (i.e. "I'm glad you told me.") _________________
6-4 Supervising Behavior: BP-PBS
27. Supervising Behavior
Ask who, what, when and where. Notes:____________
Ensure the student’’s safety. _________________
• Is the bullying still happening? _________________
• Is the reporting student at risk? _________________
• Fear of revenge?
• What does the student need to feel safe? _________________
• What is the severity of the situation _________________
_________________
"Did you tell the student to stop?" (If yes, praise the
student for using an appropriate response) _________________
_________________
"Did you walk away from the problem behavior?" (If _________________
yes, praise student for using appropriate response)
_________________
When the Student Does it Right…… _________________

_________________
Reinforce the student for discussing the problem
behavior (i.e. "Thanks for talking to me.")
_________________
_________________
"Did ______ tell you to stop?" _________________
If yes: "How did you respond?"

Introduction Notes:__________
No intervention is perfect, so it is critical that ongoing evaluations
________________
________________
are conducted to determine the effectiveness of the intervention.
________________
Doing so provides for program adaptation and valued decision
________________
making, which can greatly improve potential student and staff ________________
outcomes. Within the faculty follow-up section, the BP-PBS program ________________
provides both a staff survey as well as a decision making flow chart. ________________
The staff survey can be filled out on a weekly, monthly, or even ________________
semiannual basis by the entire staff or by the PBS team, depending ________________
on the needs of the school and the concerns about problem ________________
behavior outside the classroom. The survey is simple to complete,
________________
________________
including only 6 questions to be answered on a 1 to 5 scale. In
________________
addition, each question is directly related to the decision making flow
________________
chart. The flow chart points out adaptations that can be made in the ________________
program based on the answers that are given on the survey. Again, ________________
very simple to follow, the flow chart can assist in meaningful ________________
decisions that greatly impact the outcomes of the BP-PBS program. ________________

31. Where BP-PBS Came From
Introduction
Bullying has reached epidemic proportions in American schools. The National School Safety
Center (NSSC) called bullying the most enduring and underrated problem in U.S. schools (Beale, 2001),
and in a national survey, nearly 30 percent of students surveyed reported being involved in bullying as
either a perpetrator or a victim (Nansel, et al., 2001; Swearer & Espelage, 2004). In an effort to respond
to this epidemic, Bully Prevention in Positive Behavior Support was designed, blending school-wide
positive behavior support, explicit instruction regarding a 3-step response to problem behavior, and a
reconceptualization of the bullying construct. Bully-Prevention in Positive Behavior Support (BP-PBS)
gives students the tools necessary to remove the social rewards maintaining inappropriate behavior,
thereby decreasing the likelihood of problem behavior occurring in the future. BP-PBS not only
decreases incidents of bullying behavior, but also increases appropriate recipient responses to bullying
behavior and appropriate bystander responses to bullying behavior. In addition, because the program is
designed to fit within a larger system of positive behavior support, it is far less resource intensive and far
more likely to be implemented over consecutive years.
In an effort to evaluate the initial effectiveness of the BP-PBS curriculum, a pilot study was run in a
nearby elementary school during the winter of 2007. Ten minute observations were conducted on three
students as selected by the principal, along with a composite peer during lunch recess to evaluate the
effectiveness of the program. Results indicated a significant reduction in problem behavior after the
intervention was delivered (55-69% reduction). In addition, other students on the playground were
significantly more likely to respond appropriately when they were bullied (see Appendix A, B, and C).

32. The Impact of Bullying
Victims and perpetrators of bullying are at risk for behavioral, emotional, and academic problems
(Espelage & Swearer, 2003; Schwartz & Gorman, 2003) and are also at increased risk for depression,
anxiety, loneliness, low self-esteem, and suicide (Baldry & Farrington, 1998). Over time, these children
are more likely to skip and/or drop out of school (Berthold & Hoover, 2000; Neary & Joseph, 1994) and
suffer from underachievement and sub-potential performance in employment settings (Carney & Merrell,
2001; NSSC, 1995). Bullies in particular are more likely to acquire increased numbers of criminal
convictions and traffic violations than their less-aggressive peers (Roberts, 2000), and children who are
both victims and perpetrators of bullying (bully/victims) are found to have significantly lower levels of
social acceptance and self-esteem than children who are bullies or victims only (Andreou, 2000). The
now infamous Columbine killings were perpetrated by young people thought to fit within this
bully/victim category who believed they had a grievance against those who had treated them badly or
had seemed to collude in their social ostracism (Rigby, 2006).
Current Interventions
Because of the detrimental effects, great attention in education has been directed toward
"bullies" and the negative impact of their behavior on schools (Smokowski & Kopasz, 2005). Major
concern about improving school safety has followed, with an onslaught of bully-prevention campaigns
across the country. According to a national survey of state departments of education, 39 states inform
educators, parents, and students about how to respond to bullying (Furlong & Morrison, 2000), and 23
states have passed anti-bullying laws including clear prohibitions on bullying and legislative findings of
its deleterious effects on school environments (http://bullypolice.org). With this enhanced interest in
stopping bullying has come a rapidly increasing number of intervention programs designed to reduce
bullying in schools.
However, despite the overdue attention, there are indications that the movement is not making
good progress. The U.S. Surgeon General's report on youth violence (U.S. Department of Health and
Human Services, 2001) identified 29 best practices in youth violence prevention; the only bullying
program to make the list was the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program (Olweus, Limber, & Mihalic,
1999), and it was listed as a "promising" rather than a "model" program. A more recent listing of 32
8-2 Introduction: BP-PBS
33. "effective programs" produced the same result; only the Olweus program made the list (Osher & Dwyer,
2006). Finally, a meta-analysis of bullying prevention programs conducted by Merrell, Gueldner, Ross,
and Isava (in press) found that anti-bullying programs produced meaningful effects for only about one
third of the outcome variables, with improved outcomes being noted mostly in indirect, knowledge
based outcomes (i.e. knowledge of the prevention program lesson materials).
The Bullying Construct
Why then are there so few programs with documented effectiveness? One critical problem is the
difficulty in conceptualizing and measuring bullying behavior (Griffin & Gross, 2004). Common
definitions of "bullying" involve repeated acts of aggression, intimidation, or coercion against a victim
who is weaker in terms of physical size, psychological/ social power, or other factors that result in a
notable power differential (Carney & Merrell, 2001; Due, et al., 2005; Olweus, 1993; Smith & Ananiadou,
2003; Smith & Brain, 2000). The broad range of physical, verbal, and social behaviors, the intent to harm,
the repetition of confrontation, and the imbalance of power between the perpetrator(s) and victim(s) are
key features of bullying that make it extremely difficult to recognize and measure, forcing observers to
judge not only intent, but the levels of power in each participant, and the number of times the behavior
has occurred in the past. There is no doubt that an understanding and an appreciation of bullying has
been aided by the development of these complex definitions, but they are clearly not ideal for assessing
its prevalence nor developing effective interventions.
Program Maintenance
Another major issue in previously designed bullying prevention programs is the lack of program
maintenance. Of the positive outcomes found in some interventions, few have been maintained even
two years later. For example, an implementation of the Olweus Bullying Prevention Program in
southeastern United States (Limber et al., 2004) produced significant reductions in self-report measures
of peer victimization in boys, but 2 years later, differences from the baseline level of peer victimization
were insignificant. Additionally, an analysis of results obtained in a study conducted in Rogaland,
Norway indicated an actual increase in bullying behavior 3 years after the implementation of the Olweus
program (Roland, 1993). Several reasons for these disappointing results exist. First, bullying
programs often require large amounts of time and resources to implement, and schools are unable to
