Case Study John's Verbally Disruptive Behavior
The consequence that maintained John’s verbally disruptive behavior was the teacher giving him a referral and sending him to the office. It seems like John doesn’t enjoy math. With that being said, ending instruction to get the class back in order and sending him out of the class, in which he was performing math is giving him what he wants. The teacher’s intention was for the removal of class to act as a punishment for John. However, John may view it as positive reinforcement, because math class is uncomfortable and challenging for John. By sending John to the principal office, the cause of his problem behavior is not being addressed. For that reason an intervention strategy is more than necessary.

    0079: Music, EMC: Video Analysis

    The teacher in this video has complete control of her classroom. She clearly expects the students to act when asked, and she cues them with verbal directions and nonverbal hand motions. She does not have to repeat herself, nor do any students seem confused of defiant. An excellent example of this is when she directs the students to pick up their hand chimes, play them, and then stop. I have had experience with this age group of students, and understand how difficult it can be for this age of students to not become distracted by an instrument and impulsively play it. However, the students in video case #0079 show restraint and proper behavior when they are instructed to stop playing. Her expectations and routines have created a learning climate where the students are at ease and engaged, display respect for the structure of her classroom, and display appropriate…

    Coercipator Generalization

    To build on the example above, there were children working quietly and diligently on their artwork. It was much easier and more enjoyable for me to praise these students for their hard work than to constantly correct the student I was in the coercive cycle with. Teachers may face the same sort of competing contingencies in the classroom. Perhaps there are other bright, well-behaved students with which the teacher would prefer to interact. Perhaps grading papers is more reinforcing than classroom management. Interventions themselves are not always inherently rewarding. It can be aversive to implement corrective feedback, response cost, and time out as part of an intervention. It may be more reinforcing in the short term to do nothing than to engage in the potentially aversive intervention. However, interventions are reinforcing when they improve student behavior. Consultants can help make the reinforcing properties of an intervention more salient by offering praise, supportive statements, and empathy in consultative meetings (Allen & Warzack, 2000). This may make the consultation process more enjoyable for the consultee as well as create an environment where the teacher feels comfortable asking questions to improve treatment integrity. Secondly, the consultant may enlist the support of others who can provide reinforcement for implementing the…

    Sam Punching The Other Children

    Sam punching the other children is the main behavior that needs to be addressed. The reason this needs to be addressed is because, it is not acceptable to punch our classmates in the stomach. Sam knows the cause and effect of hitting his classmates in the stomach. So we also need to address why he feels the need to punch the children then put himself in timeout. I also need to address if Sam understands what rules are. Am I as a teacher explaining the consequences of bad…

    Elementary School PBIS Research

    Unfortunately, many schools have disruptive students. Kicking them out of the classrooms, school detention or suspension is not the solution. Teachers should try to find new ways to get these disruptive students involved in quality learning. They need to learn how to handle behavior problems that might occur in the classrooms. PBIS (positive behavioral interventions supports) is an approach that is grounded in research regarding behavior in the context of the settings in which it occurs. There is a need of these types of supports in elementary classrooms, in particular Sprague Elementary school, to eliminate behavior problems. Thus, implementation of school-wide positive behavioral interventions and supports (PBIS) in elementary schools is…

    Sidman (1989) Classify Negative Reinforcement

    If teachers aren’t careful, they may be unintentionally reinforcing the negative behavior, causing the behavior to worsen. A great example of this is providing attention for misbehavior. If we continuously provide attention when the student misbehaves and the student is yearning for that, the unwanted behavior is reinforced, causing it to increase. It is easy to see that when we begin to dig a little deeper and see what is truly reinforcing the behavior, teachers will be able to plan and react to situations more appropriately, helping the student behavior to…

    Functional Behavior Intervention Plan

    1. Identify the specifics of the problem behavior and the conditions that prompt and reinforce it. Every teacher experiences difficulty at one time or another in trying to remedy an individual student’s behavior problem that is not responsive to preventative efforts. Because research suggests that the success of a behavioral intervention hinges on identifying the specific conditions that prompt and reinforce the problem behavior (i.e., the behavior’s “antecedents” and “consequences”), we recommend that teachers carefully observe the conditions in which the problem behavior is likely to occur and not occur. Teachers then can use that information to tailor effective and efficient intervention strategies that respond to the needs of the individual student within the classroom…

    Should Teachers Have the Authority to Remove Disruptive Students from Their Class Permanently?

    Having a disruptive student present in the classroom can hinder the learning environment for other students.” Disruptive student behavior is detrimental to the academic community because it interferes with the learning process for other students, inhibits the ability of instructors to teach most effectively, diverts university energy and resources away from the educational mission, and may indicate a significant level of personal problems or distress on the part of the disrupter.” (Gerald Amada (personal communication, February 1, 1999). Unfortunately these situations can be severe enough that it could be very distracting and definitely takes away from the other students learning experience. In certain situations the disruptive student may need to be removed permanently. When the teacher feels as though the student may need to be removed permanently all parties involved should come together. It should involve the parents, the guidance counselor, the dean and possibly even the principle. The student should be treated fairly and gently as to not cause any damage to the student.…

    Case Study Sample

    Throughout the study, Shelley did not focus extensively on behavior management. On most days, the students in Shelley’s class were very well behaved and seemed to be familiar with Shelley’s rules regarding classroom behavior. On occasions when Shelley considered student behavior to be inappropriate, she provided corrective feedback in the form of non-verbal gestures or short reprimands. Once the feedback was provided, Shelley continued with instruction and did not dwell on behavior. Examples of corrective feedback statements regarding the behavior of the whole class included, “Let’s get back into control, O.K.?,” “Let’s calm down. I like for you to answer the questions but I don’t like you to comment…
