Intervention Plan
Teaching Intervention Plan
Page 187 in the Jones and Jones text, describes a case study on gum chewing. This is an example of an intervention designed to change behavior through a teaching intervention, rather than stressing rules and punishment. Several other examples follow as well.
For this mini-intervention assignment, create a Teaching Intervention Plan for a classroom behavior that you would like to change.
Your plan should include: 1. A detailed, yet concise, description of the behavior you would like to change that: * Identifies and describes the behavior you would like to change. * Describes the setting in which the behavior occurs. * Describes which or how many students are involved. * Describes the conditions under which the behavior occurs. * Describes the effects of the behavior. * Includes a description of your proposed intervention and your rationale for proposing this intervention. 2. A lesson plan to teach the skills necessary to change the behavior. 3. A proposal of an immediate implementation strategy or plan. This goes beyond proposing the intervention; you must be specific about what exactly you intend to do. 4. A plan for evaluating effectiveness of the intervention. How will you measure and evaluate the effects of the intervention? You will collect some type of data or evidence in order to measure and evaluate the plan's effects. This aspect of the assignment is not addressed in the scoring rubric. However, evaluating the effectiveness of the intervention is an important component of your course project (Part 2 of each mini-intervention) and so you should plan now for how you will do this.
You might consider measures such as: * Frequency counts of desirable or undesirable behaviors. * Documented conversations with students. * Increases or decreases in time on task. * Any other measures you believe will provide evidence of how the intervention is making a
