Description
Even with a solid classroom management plan in place, some misbehavior is bound to happen. Fortunately, teachers and other educators can implement simple interventions without the help of a specialist to reduce problem behavior and instead focus their time and energy on instruction and student success.
New in This Edition
The third edition of Encyclopedia of Behavior Intervention features:

- Greater focus on individual behavior rather than group behavior
Grounded in Research
The interventions in Encyclopedia of Behavior Intervention are based on research that shows proactive, positive, and instructional approaches to student misbehavior are far more effective in managing and motivating students than traditional authoritarian and punitive approaches. Encyclopedia of Behavior Intervention translates these broad ideas about behavior management and intervention into specific actions you can take to improve the behavior of individual students.
For each misbehavior addressed, the Encyclopedia of Behavior Interventions offers an assortment of plans so you can select an intervention tailored to the purpose, duration, and severity of your particular situation. A series of questions guides you through relevant considerations to help you identify the plan that best suits your situation or develop your own custom intervention.
