Applied Behavior Analysis for Teachers: International Edition de Paul A. Alberto

Applied Behavior Analysis for Teachers: International Edition

Autor Paul A. Alberto, Anne C. Troutman
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 iul 2008
Scholarly and empirically based, this market-leading text gives students what they need to understand using the principles and practices of applied behavioral management in the classroom. The content is presented clearly, in a friendly, accessible–even fun–manner. The eighth edition uses classroom-based examples and practices firmly grounded in research. Content is presented in the order of decision-making by a teacher who has a student exhibiting challenging behavior in class or a student who needs to execute a behavior-change project. The text covers identifying target behavior, collecting and graphing data, functional assessment, experimental design, arranging antecedents and consequences, generalizing behavior change and discusses the importance of ethical considerations in using applied behavior analysis in the classroom.

Textul de pe ultima copertă

For over 25 years, the author team of Alberto and Troutman has written a technically sound, systematically organized and highly-readable text for students of applied behavior analysis, behavior management, and behavior modification courses. The text continues its tradition of aiding students in their understanding of the core concepts of applied behavior analysis, how to apply these concepts in the classroom and alternative settings, and to use the tools and methods appropriately and ethically. Scholarly and empirically based, this market-leading text gives students what they need to understand using the principles and practices of applied behavioral management in the classroom in a friendly, accessible–even fun–manner. The newly revised Applied Behavior Analysis for Teachers, 8/e, does not disappoint.
 
New to the eighth edition:
  • New and revised content includes: identifying target behavior, collecting and graphing data, functional assessment, experimental design, arranging antecedents and consequences, generalizing behavior change and discusses the importance of ethical considerations in using applied behavior analysis in the classroom.
  • Content is presented in the order of decision-making by a teacher who has a student exhibiting challenging behavior in class or a student who needs to execute a behavior-change project.
  •  A rewritten and expanded chapter on functional assessment and functional analysis and new Behavior Support Plans (Chapter Six).
  • Features classroom-based examples and practices firmly grounded in research.
  • Updated examples that address the contemporary interests of children and young adults
  • Classroom “snapshots” that show teachers using applied behavior analysis techniques in different settings
  • An enhanced online supplemental support package for instructors who adopt the text.

Caracteristici

Coverage of cultural and linguistic—Diversity is expanded to reflect our changing times and environment and prepare pre-service teachers for the classrooms they will encounter in their future teaching professions.
 
General education examples are integrated throughout the text to show the benefits and necessities of inclusion.
 
Chapter Outline at the start of every chapter and Key Terms at the end of every chapter.
 
Coverage of functional assessment and functional analysis—Iincluding behavior support plans that provide teachers with powerful strategies to deal with challenging student behaviors without resorting to traditional, aversive, or punitive methods.
 
Example instruments and strategies that have been classroom-tested—Demonstrate the ease of data collection in today's educational settings.
 
Functional assessment and analysis chapter—Bridges the gap between development of a hypothesis and selection of an intervention strategy; facilitates understanding of the behavior change paradigm.
 
Classroom examples throughout—Create a vision of applied behavior analysis that is immediate, accessible, and relevant to both student and teacher
 
Sheets, charts, and tables for actual data recording—Shows students “how it's done.”
