Children with internalizing disorders like anxiety and withdrawal tend to not be disruptive in the classroom. They have problems with excessive internal control and may be rigid. Learned helplessness, where children believe nothing they do can change bad outcomes, can result in poor performance after failure due to low self-esteem. Emotional and behavioral disorders impact all aspects of information processing for children from memory to decision making. Effective interventions include positive behavior support, social skills training, self-monitoring strategies, and behavior contracts directed by students. Schools should provide universal, targeted, and intensive supports through the RTI model.

School Based Mindfulness Interventions Within a Response to Intervention Fram...Innovations2Solutions
Public education is continually evolving to best meet the academic and social-emotional needs of an increasingly diverse student population. A major driving force for this change is the No Child Left Behind Act (2001), which holds schools and teachers accountable for student performance on standardized tests in reading, math, and science. In order to academically prepare students for these high-stakes tests, 43 states have adopted
the Common Core Standards. These standards hold students to a high level of performance in language arts and math that is designed to prepare them for career and college readiness. While the Common Core Standards provide a universal framework for academic standards across the United States, there is
no comparable measure for social-emotional learning standards despite the fact that approximately one in five children and adolescents either currently experience or will experience mental health issues that warrant intervention. These types of issues include both internalizing conditions such as anxiety and depression and externalizing conditions such as Attention
Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Conduct Disorder, and Oppositional Defiant Disorder. These disorders present a wide variety of challenges and adverse side effects for individuals who suffer from them. Some
of these negative side effects include lower academic achievement higher school dropout rates and negative peer relationships.

Life Span Parenting Project
Children ought to be evaluated when it comes to their entire environment with the inclusion of whatever negative or positive parental influences that could exist, this is according to Group counseling and psychotherapy with children and adolescents. I have learned that one of the most refreshing impacts concerning parents is because mainly we work with their kids who are reaching the adolescent stage in regions of their personal/social, academic success, career development, and realm. Their work comprises of working in intervention and prevention (Denno et al., 2015). Counselors help students like who undergo rough times, for instance, in adolescent and help them in enlightening their skills of resilience to be equipped better in case of hitting tough times in the future.
The adolescent stage is characterized by uneven and dramatic integration of changes that are developmental into the day to day lives of young persons. Simultaneously, teenagers experience growing independence from their families, mood swings, and at times, rapidly increasing sexuality. The tasks of talking to them usually start within the units of the family. Often, as guardians, we tend to view our teens as fragile thus visit our pediatricians or doctors since we see them as people whom to seek advice from regarding both behavioral and physiologic issues (Shechtman, 2017). The ongoing relationship with the pediatrician and the family gives for enough prospects to offer support and guidance that is anticipated as our kids get into and move through the stage of adolescence.
Determinants of Parenting
As we all know, the parent-child relationship has a massive influence on most aspects of the development of a child. When behaviors, parenting skills, and optimal capabilities have a positive effect on the school achievement or self-esteem of a child, there is positive behavior and development on the kids.
Fig: Family-Based Therapy
Some other treatment programs that can be used to work in families include family therapy, family-centered therapy, or family-based therapy. These programs change from one to the other. These are effective when it comes to family counseling and help in coming to terms with the stage or any disorder that could arise in the process.
As far as I am concerned, therapy is vital when looking at parenting approaches. This is because when an individual is a child, through adolescent to when they mature to being adults, they require guideline on being better per.

Emotional Development and Moral Development
This week we will explore the functions of emotions, the development of emotional expression and emotional understanding, the role of temperament, and the development and significance of attachment. Additionally, we will study moral development. Topics involving moral development will include the study of morality as the adoption of societal norms, morality as social understanding, moral reasoning of young children, the development of self-control, and the development of aggression.
Topics to be covered include:
Stages of Emotional Development
Moral Development
Emotional Development
Emotion is defined as a rapid appraisal of the personal significance of a situation that prepares us for action. When you experience something that is personally relevant, there is physiological response in your body that causes a behavioral response. If you get into an argument, someone you love smiles at you, or you accomplish a challenging task, you feel a surge of emotion. Your behavioral responses to your emotions is part of what makes you unique!
EMOTIONS DEFINED
Theorists with a functionalist approach to emotion believe that emotions play an integral role in cognitive processing, social behavior, and physical health. They believe that the purpose of emotions is to motivate behavior aimed at accomplishing personal goals. If you have a goal in mind, the anticipation of the outcome, as well as the outcome itself, triggers emotions that help dictate your response. As an individual interacts with his or her environment and situations change, emotions change.
We see how cognition and emotions work together when we consider the impact of anxiety on performance. When anxiety levels rise, thinking skills are often impacted, as attention given to mental processing is now occupied with thoughts of worry. In addition, children who become distressed tend to better recall that particular experience, showing emotion is linked to memory. We also previously learned that two childhood growth disorders, nonorganic failure to thrive and psychosocial dwarfism, result from emotional deprivation.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Risk Factors for Internalizing
Disorders
Children who are anxious or withdrawn are likely to
be more of a threat themselves than to others around
them. Because they usually are not disruptive, they
generally do not cause classroom management
problems. In contrast to children with conduct
disorders, children who are anxious and withdrawn
have problems with excessive internal control;
3. in most settings they maintain firm control over their
impulses, wishes, and desires. Children who are
anxious and withdrawn may be rigid and unable to
be spontaneous (Gresham & Kern, 2004).
4. Learn Helplessness
Learned helplessness in children is the belief that nothing
they do can stop bad things from happening. Learned
helplessness results in severe deteriorations in performance
after failure, as though the children have said to themselves,
“It’s all happening again.” These children often have such
low self-concepts that failure in a school task or a social
setting only confirms for them their worthlessness and
helplessness in the face of an unfriendly environment.
5. These children’s poor performance in the classroom
maybe such worse than they are capable of, simply
because they are so pessimistic about themselves and
their abilities. Low self-esteem seems to be at the
heart much of the underachievement of children who
are anxious and withdrawn.
6. Suicide
A strong feeling of hopelessness can be the predominant reason for
teenagers to think about suicide or even attempt it. For some time,
suicide has been one of the major causes of adolescent death. Today it is
the third leading cause of teenage deaths in the U.S, with 272 deaths
recorded and about 8 times more suicides attempted.
The following are some currently cited signs of a potential suicide:
Extreme changes in behaviour
Previous suicide attempts
Suicide threats and statements
Signs of deep depression
7. Emotional and behavioral disorders have an impact on all
aspects of information processing. Although vision, and
auditory abilities may test as normal, how the child perceives
the stimulus may be altered. Pete, very aware of his power
status in his group, may misinterpret actions and words of
others as a threat to him and his status.
Anxiety and stress can influence of all the central processing
Mechanisms from memory to evaluation.
8. The child’s attempt to communicate through the
speaking and writing is clouded by either
externalizing or internalizing concerns as well as
social relationships. The decision making of the
student (executive function) is at the mercy of the
emotional forces working on him or her at any given.
In short, a child with emotional and behavioral and
behavioral disorders has serious problem in every
major aspect of information processing.
9. EDUCATIONAL RESPONSES
to students with emotional and behavior disorders
It is particularly important to identify children at the
preschool age with symptoms of EBD, since we have
good evidence that preschool problems do not go away
but persist and become more serious in later grades
unless action is taken early (Eager & Angold, 2006).
The most common problems found at this age are
ADHD, oppositional defiant and conduct disorders,
10. anxiety disorders, and depressive disorders. We are
not well equipped to apply diagnostic services and
subsequent treatment at the preschool age because
preschool services such as child care centers, do not
have the resources of the public schools, so it is
important for child caretakers to be aware of the
community mental health resources available.
There is a concern that “normal” aggression may be
tagged as a sign of an emotional or behavior problem,
11. so it must be clear that oppositional behaviors be
persistent, pervasive, and severe to warrant mental
health referral. (Still only about one in four children
who would be identified as emotionally and
behaviorally disturbed are referred for treatment,
representing a major gap in services (Egger and
Angold, 2006).
Some attention has been given to the issue of pre
school depression, with the predominant symptoms
12. being sad and irritable mood, low energy, eating and
sleeping problems, and low self-esteem (Luby et
al.,2003) . These conditions are often comorbid, that
is they exist alongside other disorders such as anxiety
and fearful feelings. The availability of technical
assistance services that can find appropriate
treatment facilities for children with EBD would be
a great advance for many communities.
13. For our purposes as educators, however, it is
important to note that these children were still in
academic trouble, whatever the labels. These findings
indicate that the best plan may be to moved ahead
with IEPs that specify student’s difficulty and
outline specific supports and services to meet the
child’s needs.
14. The RTI Model
How does the response to intervention (RTI) model
fit into these various attempts to create a plan for
behavioral adjustment?
The bottom of the RTI triangle or (Tier I) is
concerned with the universal interventions – the
schoolwide behaviour system.
15. Three levels of behavioral support seem to be necessary for
good school operation (Sugai & Horner, 2006). The first of
these is universal group behavior support for most
students.
The Tier II activities (for about 5 to 15 percent of
students) would apply the positive behavior supports through
small-group work or individual tutoring.
The Tier III activities involved a small number of
students (1 to 7 percent), those with the most serious
emotional and behavioral problems.
16. The Tier III activities involved a small number of
students (1 to 7 percent), those with the most serious
emotional and behavioral problems.
17. Tier I - Schoolwide
adjustment
When we realize that poor academic performance is
one of the key elements for children with EBD, our
attention needs to be focused on all the tiers of the
RTI model. Included in Tier I must be strong core
reading program that is adaptable for students
currently doing poorly (Simonsen et al., 2008).
18. Tier II – Small group
interventions
Positive Behavior Supports
The history is quite short, but its influence is growing
rapidly across the country. The basic concept is that
misbehavior should not necessarily be followed by
punishment of one sort or another but with attempts
to understand the causes or antecedents of the
misbehavior (Dunlap & Carr, 2007).
19. Functional Behavior Assessment
(FBA) is a key part of positive behavior supports. It can be
described as a collection of methods for gathering information
about a child’s behavior that tries to answer the question
“Why did h or she do that?” rather than, “What did he or she
do now?”. To answer this key question, a child study team
may wish to seek the antecedent behaviors to the event
or to comprehend the child’s understanding of the
consequences of his or her action.
20. Gresham (2007) describesfivemajor waysin which
unwanted behavior can accomplish certain goalsfor the
individual child or adult;
Gain Social attention (Positive social reinforcement)
Gain access to tangibles or preferred activities (material or
activity reinforcement)
Escape, delay, reduce, or avoid aversive tasks or activities
(negative reinforcement)
Escape or avoid other individuals (negative social
reinforcement)
Gain internal satisfaction(automatic or sensory
reinforcement)
21. Tier III – Intensive
Interventions
Applied Behavior Analysis
One of the most frequently used methods of modifying
student behavior is applied behavior analysis (ABA),
procedures that follow the work of B.F Skinner on operant
conditioning. In addition to the attention paid to the problem
behavior, the procedure focuses on the antecedents to the
behavior and the consequences following it; this referred to
as the A – B – C approach. (antecedents – behavior –
consequences)
22. Residential Care
Despite the strong tendency to cry to place children with
emotional and behavior disorders in inclusive settings, other
alternatives are being investigated. A small residential unit in
North Carolina enrolls twenty-four children with severe
behavior problems (6 – 12) for periods up to six months and
provides them with an organized program using the
reeducation model (Fields, Farmer, Apperson, Mustillo, &
Simmers, 2006)
23. Special Teacher and program
strategies for children with EBD
Social Skills Training
One of the clear goals in remediation of emotional and
behavior disorders is to improve the social skills of the
student to produce socially acceptable learned behaviors such
as cooperation, assertion, responsibility, empathy, and self
control. There has even been some suggestion that
improvement in academic skills instruction, as much as social
skills instruction, might improve the behavior of many
students.
24. Developing Social Skills
many children with behavior disorders not only engage in non
adaptive behaviors that cause them trouble with their peers
and teachers but also lack positive social skills. Some students
may have little opportunity in their neighborhoods or in their
families to see positive social skills. Some students may have
little opportunity in their neighborhoods or in their families
to see positive social skills in use.
25. Self-monitoring, self-
instruction
There is a family of strategies currently known as the
cognitive strategy approach. Whether self-monitoring, self-
control, these methods rely on the cooperation of the child and
encourage the development of effective conscious coping
skills. One attraction of self-management techniques is that
students who successfully apply then assume greater
responsibility for their behavior instead of being externally
controlled or “forced” to change by various kinds of
conditioning (Polsgrove & Smith, 2004).
26. There are several self-
management techniques:
Self-monitoring – requires students to determine whether a target
behavior has occurred and then record its occurrence.
Self-instruction training (SIT) – is a strategy for teaching any
sequential thinking skills such as problem solving, handling frustration,
managing anger, or resisting peer pressure (Polsgrove & Smith, 2004).
Self-evaluation - asks the student to compare his or her behavior
with some criteria and make a judgment about the quality of the
behavior being exhibited.
Self-reinforcement – means that the students rewards himself or
herself with a token or a tally after meeting some performance standard,
such as avoiding aggressive outbursts for a set period of time.
27. Behavior Contract for Pete
Behavior and impact : I, Pete Walker, understand that when I start fights with
Jason, I disrupt the class, I don’t do my own work, I make my teacher mad at me, and
Jason and I sometimes get hurt.
Target for change: This week I will work on leaving Jason alone.
Reward for change: If I do not get into a fight with Jason this week, I can pick three
classmates to play my favorite computer math game with me on Friday during
independent work time.
Consequences for no change: If I do a fight with Jason this week, I will use my
independent work time to do a classroom chore. That way, I can give something back
to my classmates.
Date: 9/15/2010
Student’s signature: ____________
Teacher’s signature: ____________
28. What is most important about behavior contract is that they
are directed by the students: The student identifies specific
objectionable behavior, articulates the impact of this
behavior, identifies its consequences, and describes rewards
for not indulging in it. This ownership, for students, is
critical to helping them take responsibility for their behavior
and for the impact it has on those around him.
29. Teacher Preparation
The Teacher and the Pressures of Inclusion
Personal Preparation – studies of teachers in the EBD field yield
good news in terms of increasing confidence such prospective teachers
have in controlling the classroom behavior (Henderson et al., 2005). The
bad news is that not enough of these teachers are available.
The Support Teacher (EBD Specialist) – one innovative
suggestion for supporting classroom teachers is to use a support
teacher, a person with social education training in many of the
approaches noted earlier. The support teacher generally uses techniques
that are an extension of regular education procedures, emphasizing
positive behavior supports.
30. The wraparound approach
The wraparound approach makes extensive use of
agencies outside the school program, though they are expected
to include school personnel in the planning. The family is also
a critical part of this planning if it is so work, and strong
efforts are made to involve them (Eber, Sugai, Smith, &
Scott, 2002)
31. Peer tutoring
One of the instructional strategies in use with students with
mild disabilities such as EBD is peer tutoring. Obviously,
if peers can be helpful in improving the performance of
chidren with disabilities, it could be a substantial boon for
the teacher. This approach consists of pairing students, one of
whom is the player (student with a disability) and the other
the coach (a student who has been prepared for help).
32. Technical assistance
One of the marks of the success of the positive behavioral
intervention movement has been the establishment of the
OSEP Technical Assistance Center on Positive Behavioral
Interventions and Supports, a collaboration between the U.S
Department of Education and eleven technical assistance
units across the U.S.
A number of technological aids can provide some supportive
help for those working with children with behavior or
emotional difficulties.
33. Time-Out
One of the techniques used most frequently to control
the behavior of children with behavior disorders is the
time-out-sending students who have violated
classroom rules to secluded place in the room or in a
space nearby with instructions to come back when
they feel they have regained control of themselves.
34. Assistive technology for students with
emotional and behavior disorders
A computer can be an especially useful learning tool for a
student with a behavior disorder because it provides an
objective, neutral response to the child’s sometimes provoking
or challenging behavior.
Computer assisted learning can support the child’s academic
performance by helping with spelling, word definitions, text-
to-speech options for reading, and organizational support for
writing his or her thoughts and ideas.
35. The role of the family
The importance of the family, in both positive and
negative ways, has long been recognized for children
with EBD. This is one of the reasons parents play a
significant role in IDEA legislation. Table 7.3
summarizes the various interactions the family will
have with the school.
36. Table 7.3 – Parental
involvement in IDEA
•Understand what consent is and provide informed consent for services under
IDEA.
•Notified in advance about any proposed changes to a child’s evaluation, IEP/EFSP,
or educational placement to ensure the opportunity to participate in meetings
regarding the education of their child.
•Informed about the process used to assess the child’s response to scientific,
research-based intervention, appropriate strategies for improved achievement, and
the right to request an evaluation.
•Informed about the disciplinary actions regarding their child.
•Given a copy of the procedural safeguards, the evaluation report, the
documentation of determination of eligibility, and a copy of the child’s IEP at no
cost for the parent.
•Informed about the state procedures for filling a complaint and the right to records
of hearings, findings of fact, and decisions.
•Allowed to inspect and review all education records related to their child, and
request that information be amended.
37. transition
One of the unsolved challenges involving the education of
students with emotional and behavior disorders is their poor
record of school completion, together with limited success in
the vocational arena following school.
These findings suggest (1) the difficulty of entering a labor
market with low and uncertain wages, (2) the possibility of
trouble with the law, and (3) the unlikelihood of their
seeking additional training on their own.
38. Table 7.4 – responses from students with
EBD on staying in school
