BOSS Classroom Management And Community-Based Applications: A Guide for Teachers and Helping Professionals: Peter Ross, Ph.D. and Mick Needham, Ed.D.

Classroom management and discipline problems have reached crisis proportions, yet most teachers and helping professionals do not embrace evidence-based practices for effective behavior management. Instead, many teachers, parents, and professional support staff continue to utilize ineffective punishment-based strategies that only make matters worse. John Maag has referred to this ineffective practice as "paradigm paralysis." This book shows teachers, parents, and caring professionals how to "undo" this paradigm paralysis. It not only discusses effective management and discipline procedures, it describes BOSS Teaching which is a proactive, step-by-step procedure for ensuring effective classroom management, motivation, and positive behavior support. The contents of this book also investigate related developmental factors, deviant and disruptive childhood disorders, and bullying. Several teacher and professional support staff reflections are provided to illustrate the positive effects of BOSS Teaching. These authentic reflections also help teachers, parents, and support staff gain confidence in adopting new practices for the proper and effective treatment of students in the classroom, children in our care, and adults living in the community.
