Evidence Based Practices for BOSS Teaching - Ross Peter

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