Challenge
PURPOSE
1.Review SWPBS rationale,
features, & examples
2.Review strategies for keeping
SWPBS going
SWPBS is about….
SW-PBS Logic!Successful individual student behavior support is linked to host environments or school climates that are effective, efficient, relevant, & durable(Zins & Ponti, 1990)
“141 Days!”Intermediate/senior high school with 880 students reported over 5,100 office discipline referrals in one academic year. Nearly 2/3 of students have received at least one office discipline referral.
5,100 referrals =
76,500 min @15 min =
1,275 hrs =
159 days @ 8 hrs
2 WORRIES
• Get Tough (practices)
• Train-&-Hope (systems)
Immediate & seductive solution….”Get Tough!”
• Clamp down & increase monitoring
• Re-re-re-review rules
• Extend continuum & consistency of consequences
• Establish “bottom line”
...Predictable individual response
Erroneous assumption that student…
• Is inherently “bad”
• Will learn more appropriate behavior through increased use of “aversives”
• Will be better tomorrow…….
But….false sense of safety/security!
• Fosters environments of control
• Triggers & reinforces antisocial behavior
• Shifts accountability away from school
• Devalues child-adult relationship
• Weakens relationship between academic & social behavior programming
Science of behavior has taught us that students….
• Are NOT born with “bad behaviors”
• Do NOT learn when presented contingent aversive consequences
……..Do learn better ways of behaving by being taught directly & receiving positive feedback.
VIOLENCE PREVENTION?
• Surgeon General’s Report on Youth Violence (2001)
• Coordinated Social Emotional & Learning (Greenberg et al., 2003)
• Center for Study & Prevention of Violence (2006)
• White House Conference on School Violence (2006)
• Positive, predictable school-wide climate
• High rates of academic & social success
• Formal social skills instruction
• Positive active supervision & reinforcement
• Positive adult role models
• Multi-component, multi-year school-family-community effort

PRIMARY PREVENTION• Teach & encourage positive SW expectations• Proactive SW discipline• Effective instruction• Parent engagement•
Audit
1.Identify existing practices by tier
2.Specify outcome for each effort
3.Evaluate implementation accuracy & outcome effectiveness
4.Eliminate/integrate based on outcomes

5. Continuum of procedures for discouraging inappropriate behavior
6. Procedures for on-going monitoring & evaluation
School-wide
• Positive expectations & routines taught & encouraged
• Active supervision by all staff– Scan, move, interact
• Precorrections & reminders
• Positive reinforcement
Non-classroom
• Classroom-wide positive expectations taught & encouraged
• Teaching classroom routines & cues taught & encouraged
• Ratio of 6-8 positive to 1 negative adult-student interaction
• Active supervision• Redirections for minor, infrequent behavior errors• Frequent precorrections for chronic errors• Effective academic instruction & curriculum
Classroom
• Behavioral competence at school & district levels
• Function-based behavior support planning
• Team- & data-based decision making
• Comprehensive person-centered planning & wraparound processes
• Targeted social skills & self-management instruction
• Individualized instructional & curricular accommodations
Individual Student
• Continuum of positive behavior support for all families
• Frequent, regular positive contacts, communications, & acknowledgements
• Formal & active participation & involvement as equal partner
• Access to system of integrated school & community resources

When has FBA been done?1. Clear & measurable definition of problem
behaviors.
2. Complete testable hypothesis or summary statement is provided.
• Statement of function (purpose) of behavior
3. Data (direct observation) to confirm testable hypothesis.
4. Behavior intervention plan based on testable hypothesis
• Contextually appropriate supports for accurate implementation

Fundamental Rule!
“You should not propose to reduce a problem behavior without also identifying alternative, desired behaviors person should perform instead of problem behavior” (O’Neill et al., 1997, p. 71).
