BOOK: NEW SECOND EDITION

Developing a Schoolwide Framework to Prevent and Manage Learning and Behavior Problems

Cover of the book entitled Developing a Schoolwide Framework to Prevent and Manage Learning and Behavior Problems Second Edition

“Now revised and expanded, this volume explains how to design, implement, and evaluate a comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered (Ci3T) model of prevention. Rather than presenting a packaged program, the book provides resources and strategies for designing and tailoring Ci3T to the needs and priorities of a particular school or district community. Ci3T is unique in integrating behavioral, academic, and social–emotional components into a single research-based framework. User-friendly features include tools for collecting and using student and schoolwide data; guidance for selecting effective interventions at each tier; detailed case examples; and tips for enhancing collaboration between general and special educators, other school personnel, and parents. In a convenient large-size format, the volume includes several reproducible forms that can be downloaded and printed for repeated use.” (From: Guilford Press)

Cover of the book entitled Supporting Behavior for School Success

“Designed for busy teachers and other school-based professionals, this book presents step-by-step guidelines for implementing seven highly effective strategies to improve classroom management and instructional delivery. These key low-intensity strategies are grounded in the principles of positive behavior intervention and support (PBIS), and are easy to integrate into routine teaching practice. Chapters discuss exactly how to use each strategy to decrease disruptive behavior and enhance student engagement and achievement. Checklists for success are provided, together with concise reviews of the evidence base and ways to measure outcomes. Illustrative case examples span the full K-12 grade range. Reproducible intervention tools can be downloaded and printed in a convenient 8½” x 11″ size.” (From: Guilford Press)

Abstract: In this introductory article, the authors provide an overview of and rationale for comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models of prevention—one approach to integrated tiered systems of support. The authors (a) describe core features of comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models; and (b) discuss associated benefits, emphasizing those for students with and at risk for emotional and behavioral disorders. The authors conclude by providing a brief overview of the articles in this special issue, which collectively offer a step-by-step process for designing, implementing, evaluating, and sustaining comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models in schools and school districts.

Abstract: Comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models are context specific and developed by school-site teams according to the core values held by the school community. In this article, the authors provide a step-by-step, team-based process for designing comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models of prevention that integrate academic, behavioral, and social domains. First, the authors discuss the importance of beginning with securing commitments and clarifying agreements. Second, they describe the core elements of a comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered plan. Then, they outline a 6-part, data-informed training series, emphasizing the importance of incorporating feedback from stakeholders to inform design through an iterative process.

Abstract: In this article, the authors clarify the role of the leadership team, providing a rationale for one integrated team to examine academic, social, and behavioral programming, with careful attention to including all key stakeholders. Next, the authors discuss the procedures for teaching all key stakeholders the comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered plan, followed by information on how to reinforce these groups for participation in the plan and meeting expectations. Then, the authors introduce core components needed to ensure accurate decision making with respect to primary prevention efforts: treatment integrity, social validity, accurate detection using systematic screening tools, and data-informed decisions. The authors conclude with a brief summary of how to implement and monitor Tier 1 efforts.

Abstract: In comprehensive, integrated, three-tiered models, it is essential to have a systematic method for identifying students who need supports at Tier 2 or Tier 3. This article provides explicit information on how to use multiple sources of data to determine which students might benefit from these supports. First, the authors provide an overview of how to make an assessment schedule for all schoolwide data. Second, the authors outline how to create a blueprint for Tier 2 and Tier 3 supports in a given school, including a description of the strategy or practice; inclusionary criteria; data to monitor progress; and exit criteria. Last, the authors provide an overview of how to connect students to support and monitor their progress.

Abstract: School-site and district-level leadership teams rely on the existing knowledge base to select, implement, and evaluate evidence-based practices meeting students’ multiple needs within the context of multitiered systems of support. The authors focus on the stages of implementation science as applied to Tier 2 and Tier 3 supports; the importance of school-site expertise to select, implement, and monitor the use of evidence-based Tier 2 and Tier 3 practices to address the academic, behavioral, and social needs of students; and evidence-based guidelines for professional development. Together these practices ensure school-site leadership teams focus available resources for addressing data-based needs and achieving desired student outcomes.
