Promoting the Effective Implementation of Behavior Support for Your Classroom
In school-wide positive behavioral interventions supports (SWPBIS), a continuum of behavior support is provided to students in general and special education settings. However, it can be challenging for teachers to determine (a) which support strategies to implement given the unique characteristics of their classrooms, (b) how to ensure those strategies are implemented with fidelity, and (c) how to evaluate and monitor the success of those strategies. This presentation will address these challenges by offering practical suggestions. Participants will learn about evidence-based behavior support strategies as they relate to aspects of the instructional environment in general and special education settings, with an emphasis on selecting strategies that are best matched to the context of the classroom. Participants will also learn about ways to assess fidelity and how to use data to evaluate the effectiveness of behavior support strategies.
- Describe the importance of contextual fit in selecting behavior support strategies.
- Provide examples of contextually appropriate behavior support strategies across all tiers (i.e., tiers I, II, and III) as they relate to designing an instructional environment in general and special education classrooms.
- Identify activities to improve the implementation of positive behavior support strategies.
