A child/students ability to self monitor their own actions An example of how positive reinforcement

works


6/17

Why do children behave the way they do?

ATTENTION! ATTENTION! ATTENTION!

Whether it be positive or negative, they desire our attention.

Some children have been conditioned to seek out negative reinforcers inorder to feel loved, accepted, etc.


7/17

Do we teach children what to feel?

The theorists have proposed ways permanentchanges in behavior occur as a result ofexperience Classical conditioning (Pavlov) a form of learning in

which a formerly neutral stimulus is repeatedly presentedtogether with a stimulus that evokes a specific response.After repeated pairings, the neutral stimulus elicits aresponse similar to the reflexive response.

Operant conditioning (Skinner) a form of learning in whichnew responses are strengthened by the presentation ofreinforcements.

Social learning theory (Bandura) emphasizes the ability tolearn new responses through observation and imitation ofothers.

Cognitive behaviorism (Tolman, Mischel) a complex set ofexpectations, goals, and values can be treated asbehavior and can influence performance.


8/17

As Teachers, Parents, and Adultswe often

Lavish attention on the misbehaving child, while ignoring the behavior

of the child playing quietlyWe should Attend to appropriate behavior Ignore inappropriate behavior Encourage good choices


9/17

to make it work

Reinforcement increases a desired behaviorwhile punishment decreases an undesiredbehavior.

We must teach them what we want and how they can go about doing it.

Be patient! It can possibly get worse beforeit gets better.

Develop small goals and build upon them. Ignore the unwanted behaviors butintervene when necessary.

How do we use Positive Behavior Support in our schools?

Each school and its administration mustdevelop its own school wide plan

The school must train their teachers tounderstand and instruct their students aboutthe plan

The administration must provide proper andadequate supports for the plansimplementation

The students should be given plenty ofconcrete examples of behavior expectations
