The High School Behavior Education Program (HS-BEP) is a secondary tier intervention for middle and high school students at risk of school failure. It combines components of PBIS and strategies to increase school retention. The HS-BEP provides a daily 45-minute class that focuses on building organizational skills, supporting homework completion, and coordinating with the Check-In Check-Out program. Data is collected daily and reviewed regularly to monitor student progress and determine if revisions or exiting from the program is needed.

Teacher Attachment and Intention of Aggressive Behaviour among School Childreniosrjce
The main purpose of this study was to determine the relationships between teacher attachment and
intention of aggressive behaviour among school children. This study involved 426school children using selfadministered
questionnaire from six government daily secondary schools. The school children were selected
using simple random sampling method. Respondents were males (199) and females (227) between 13-17 years
old. Teacher attachment was measured using inventory of parentsattachment (IPPA) with respect to teacher
attachment and intention of aggressive behaviour. Pearson’s correlation analysis revealed that there is a
significant with negative weak relationship between teacher attachment and school children intention of
aggressive behavior(r = -0.126, p < 0.05).Also the result of t-test analysis showed that there is no significant
difference between male and female school children in term of intention of aggressive behaviour (t=1.050;
p=0.294).Moreover, the relationship indicates that lack of teachers monitoring and cooperation influence
student to engage in intention of aggressive behaviour. It is recommended that policy makers and school
counselors should give more emphasis on the improvement of good and suitable environment in the school to
improvechildren satisfaction in the school environment and thus help improve their ability not to engage in
aggressive behaviour
The outcomes for students with Emotional/Behavior Disorders are glim at best. This is the state of outcomes and the rational for change in the way we service and educate this population of student.
This paper was presented at the European Educational Research Conference in Switzerland in 2005 - it covers the longitudinal research on the use of action research as professional development.

School Psychology Misdirected: An Argument for Prevention and Capacity Building.
For the past 35 years, at least, voices within the school psychology community have called for a re-thinking of the role of psychology and psychologists within public schools. The test and place activities of school psychologists have overwhelmed their professional practice with predictable results. Few teachers or administrators see school psychologists as resources for teaching and learning expertise, but rather as mere gatekeepers to special education services of unknown effectiveness. The calls for change have come using different conceptual vehicles, for example, mental health or behavioral consultation, curriculum based assessment, treatment validity of assessments, and most recently response to intervention. All, however, speak to the same issues:
· Children’s mental health is tied directly to their academic success.
· Behavioral success for children is related to instructional expertise of teachers.
Changing how we conceptualize and implement our practice is complicated by many organizational and regulatory forces and is compromised by some basic assumptions of modern psychology. Until those assumptions are dismissed, change is unlikely.

The study sought to investigate the effect of individual counselling on academic performance of underachievers’ pupil in Maimusari Public Primary School, Jere local Government Area, Borno State, Nigeria. The objectives of the study were to examine the nature and causes of underachievement in Maimusari Public Primary School, also the effect of individual counselling on academic performance of the underachievers’ pupil. Based on these objectives, two research questions and one null hypothesis were answered and tested respectively. Quasi-experimental design was used for the study. Twenty-two underachieving pupils were purposively sampled from the population of the study. Both questionnaire and interview were used as method of data collection; Effect of Individual Counselling on Underachievers in Public Primary Schools (EICUPPS) and interview schedule. The data collected was analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The findings of the study discovered that coming late to school, not having complete learning material, depression, anxiety and teachers attitude in the classroom were the major causes of underachievement in Maimusari primary school. The study also revealed that individual counselling has helped the pupils in overcoming their learning barriers. It is therefore, concluded that individual counselling has significant effect on underachievement among pupils of public primary school in Maiduguri, Borno State. It is recommended among others that class teachers need to be oriented on how to identify underachieving pupils in their various classes and inform the appropriate authority for proper management.

Classroom Social Environment and School Performance in The Selected Secondary...AJHSSR Journal
ABSTRACT: This research investigated teachers' perceptions of the social environment in the classroom and
student performance in a sample of secondary schools in the Philippines' Municipality of Iba and Botolan,
Zambales, including Amungan National High School, San Agustin Integrated School, Jesus F. Magsaysay High
School, President Ramon Magsaysay State University-laboratory High School, Botolan National High School,
and Bancal Integrated School. One hundred fifty-five respondents were chosen at random, and the researcher
used the descriptive research design and questionnaire as the primary instruments to collect data. The school
received a "Very High" rating for promotion, retention, and cohort or survival rates but a "Very Low" rating for
failure and drop-out rates.There was a significant difference in the perception of the classroom social
environment as to classroom mastery goals, classroom performance goals, classroom social interaction,
classroom mutual respect, and classroom academic self-efficacy. There was a significant difference in the level
of school performance on student progress and development as to failure rate, drop-out rate, promotion rate,
retention rate, and cohort survival rate. There is a negligible relationship between the classroom social
environment and the school student progress and development level.Regarding classroom mastery goals,
classroom performance goals, classroom social interaction, classroom mutual respect, and classroom academic
self-efficacy, there was a significant difference in perception. Concerning the failure rate, drop-out rate,
promotion rate, retention rate, and cohort survival rate, there was a considerable variation in the level of school
performance. The social climate in the classroom has very little bearing on how well students are progressing
academically.

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.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

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.

4. MIDDLE SCHOOLS …
Major academic and developmental changes,
Increasingly focused on:
Homework completion
Credit accrual
Increasingly organized by content area
Attention and resources are focused on academic
achievement
Beset with the pressure of getting students “high
school ready”.
Middle school students are
Increasingly faced with competing demands of puberty,
peer acceptance, & school
Moving from “child” to “teen”
5. HIGH SCHOOLS …
Large,
Organized by content area,
Integration of multiple skill sets to complete learning
tasks,
Invisible skill set to organize for task completion,
Have high number of students per adult,
Attention and resources are placed on academic
achievement,
An easy place to get “lost”…
High School students are
Faced with many competing demands
Operating with “adolescent brain”
6. THE PROBLEM, PREVALENCE OF PROBLEM
BEHAVIOR IN HIGH SCHOOL
School Survey on Crime and Safety (NCES, 2006)
N= 3,565
Documented Office Discipline Referrals (ODRs)
occurring at least once per week
50% report disrespect towards teachers
86% of schools reported one or more violent incident or theft
of items valued over $10
2.2 million crimes
Middle school had highest rate of violent crimes (2008) 41
per 1000 students
7. WHAT PROBLEM BEHAVIOR COSTS
Spaulding et al (2009).
N = 1,500 schools
1.3 ODRs per day per 100 students, high school
+ 3,000 ODRs in school year
Average “lost” instructional time per ODR:
Student- 20 minutes
Administrators – 10-45 minutes (Scott & Barrett,
2004)
8. WHAT PROBLEM BEHAVIOR COSTS
Lost instruction time for students:
1,000 hours for the year
HS 5.8 in class hours (7 classes)
3,000 office referrals = 172.4 missed schools days
2,000 office referrals = 114.9 missed school days
How many missed schools days are “acceptable”?
9. THE PROBLEM, DROP OUT
Studentswith problem behaviors more likely to
drop out than peers (Jerald, 2006; McKinney, 1989;
Morrison, Anthony, Storino, & Dillon, 2001)
History of problem behavior,
Each year of NOT being successful predicts another
year of NOT being successful.
10. THE PROBLEM, DROP OUT
Everyschool year approximately 1.2
million young people drop out of school
7,000 students a day
3,500
of those students identify as ethnic
minorities
(Alliance for Excellent Education, 2007; Greene, 2002; United
States Department of Education, National
11. WHAT DROP OUT COSTS
$10,000less in average yearly income for students who
drop out of school (HHS, 2006).
Eachstudent who drops out costs the federal
government $260,000 over course of lifetime (Rouse,
2005).
A5% increase in graduation rates of male students
alone would equate to savings of $8 billion in crime
related costs (Alliance for Excellent Education, 2006).
12. Academic failure Problem behavior
(Allensworth & (e.g. disruption,
Easton, 2005; disrespect, etc.)
Balfanz, & Herzog, (Sweeten, 2006;
2005), Tobin & Sugai, 1999
Poor teacher History of grade

2005; Jerald, 2006; Wagner, Newman,
Neild & Balfanz, Cameto, Levine,
2006), and Garza, 2006).
13. WHY STUDENTS DROP OUT
Academic failure is the most empirically robust
predictor of drop out is (Allensworth & Easton, 2005;
Berktold, Geis, & Kaufman, 1998; Harlow, 2003; Jordan
McPartland, & Lara, 1999; Kemple, Herlihy & Smith, 2005;
Markow & Scheer, 2002).
Students who drop out are NOT connected to
school (Berktold, Geis, & Kaufman, 1998; Harlow, 2003 :
Jerald, 2006; Bridgeland, DiIulio, & Morison, 2006).
24% of students who drop out are unable to
identify an adult in the school by whom they
feel supported (2006 High School Survey of Student
Engagement).
14. THINK about FUNCTION …
Drop out is the “ultimate” escape,
Lack of work completion

By communicating with home
By increasing predictability
By providing BOTH social and academic supports
We need to be efficient and effective.

30. WHAT’S THE SMALLEST CHANGE THAT
WILL MAKE THE BIGGEST IMPACT?
Think back to those “Access” skills…
Our activity was reminder of the type of access or
organizational skills we employ as adults to manage
our work life, home life, fun life.
What if we can systematically support students in
organizing their time, materials, effort for academic
support?
What if we addressed the function of escape at the
same time?

Worksheets, etc.
Tutorsas able
“No Homework?” flow chart
59. No Homework? You can….!
Do EXTRA CREDIT or MISSING ASSIGNMENTS!!!
Study for a Test
Check your GRADES online (write them into your planner).
Check Calendars and students in the same class as you for assignments /
projects / upcoming tests (write into your planner).
Review information you learned in classes today (re-read notes, review
handouts, chapter in book, etc.).
Check Binders, backpack and books for unfinished work.
Check the Big White Binder for your class schedule and grade reports, and
consider if there is work to do in any class. (ex: {…to self, in head..} “OK, so I
have French 1st period, and I could study my numbers and colors, I guess. Then I
have algebra, and I have just 3 problems that I didn’t finish in class. Forgot about
those. I’ll do that.”).
Make FLASHCARDS to memorize terms, vocabulary, etc. (great for Foreign
Language, Science, English, Social Studies, sometimes Math).
Work on an Anchor Project for extra-credit in HS-BEP.
Do an enrichment activity from the black crate
It is not an option to NOT work. If you must be working, it is always best to work on something that will
benefit YOU and your GRADES…!

69. TAKE HOME MESSAGES
www.PBIS.org
Search “HS-BEP” for curriculum / lesson plans to steal
Utilize the messages from school retention literature:
Academic and social supports organized to increase credit
accrual:
Increase structure
Increase positive adult interaction
Think PBIS:
What systems are in place to support the practices that
will lead to success?
What data do you need to know if this is working?
Build on existing systems within the school.
Have patience!
