SWPBS: Beyond Classroom Management Carl Cole & George Sugai OSEP Center on PBIS University of Connecticut January 18, 2008 www.cber.org www.pbis.org [email protected] PURPOSE: Review features & strategies of SWPBS 1. What is SWPBS (PBIS)? 2. What’s needed to sustain SWPBS? 3. What have we learned? 4. What can your team do? Problem Statement “We give schools strategies & systems for developing positive, effective, achieving, & caring school & classroom environments, but implementation is not accurate, consistent, or durable. Schools need more than training.” SWPBS Logic Successful individual student behavior support is linked to host environments that are redesigned & supported to be effective, efficient, durable, & relevant for all students (Zins & Ponte, 1990) Worry “Teaching” by Getting Tough Runyon: “I hate this f____ing school, & you’re a dumbf_____.” Teacher: “That is disrespectful language. I’m sending you to the office so you’ll learn never to say those words again….starting now!” 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 Reactive responses are predictable…. When we experience aversive situation, we select interventions that produce immediate relief – Remove student – Remove ourselves – Modify physical environment – Assign responsibility for change to student &/or others When behavior doesn’t improve, we “Get Tougher!” • Zero tolerance policies • Increased surveillance • Increased suspension & expulsion • In-service training by expert • Alternative programming …..Predictable systems 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 SWPBS is about…. Improving classroom & school climate Integrating academic & behavior initiatives Improving support for students w/ EBD Decreasing reactive management Maximizing academic achievement 2001 Surgeon General’s Report on Youth Violence: Recommendations • Change social context to break up antisocial networks • Improve parent effectiveness • Increase academic success • Create positive school climates • Teach & encourage individual social skills & competence School-based Prevention & Youth Development Programming Coordinated Social Emotional & Academic Learning Greenberg et al. (2003) American Psychologist • Teach children social skills directly in real context • “Foster respectful, supportive relations among students, school staff, & parents” • Support & reinforce positive academic & social behavior through comprehensive systems • Invest in multiyear, multicomponent programs • Combine classroom & school- & community-wide efforts • Precorrect & continue prevention efforts Characteristics of Safe School Center for Study & Prevention of Youth Violence • High academic expectations & performance • High levels of parental & community involvement • Effective leadership by administrators & teachers • A few clearly understood & uniformly enforced, rules • Social skills instruction, character education & good citizenship. • After school – extended day programs Lessons Learned: White House Conference on School Safety • Students, staff, & community must have means of communicating that is immediate, safe, & reliable • Positive, respectful, predictable, & trusting studentteacher-family relationships are important • High rates of academic & social success are important • Positive, respectful, predictable, & trusting school environment/climate is important for all students • Metal detectors, surveillance cameras, & security guards are insufficient deterrents It’s not just about behavior!

Reinforcement Wisdom! • “Knowing” or saying “know” does NOT mean “will do” • Students “do more” when “doing works”…appropriate & inappropriate! • Natural consequences are varied, unpredictable, undependable,…not always preventive Basics Guidelines 1. Know basics & be conceptually grounded 2. Work as team 3. Use data to be strategic 4. Self-assess for relevant/priority outcomes 5. Formalize communications & acknowledgements 6. Model 7. Invest in local capacity 8. Engage in smallest effort to maintain effect 9. Integrate rather than add on
