ED 6055 - Social and Affective Interventions

(3)

This course will apply research-validated practices from eclectic theoretical perspectives to classroom and individual behavior management. Candidates will learn and practice strategies for social and affective intervention from the fields of psycho-educational, behavioral, cognitive behavioral, humanistic, and attribution restructuring therapies. Candidates will design positive behavior support plans, write a behavior intervention program (BIP), and examine the role of tiered intervention in the pre-referral process for students with mild/moderate cross-categorical (MM/CC) disabilities. Social skill development techniques will be reviewed with emphasis placed on students diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD), emotional/behavioral disorder (EBO), and attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). Candidates will explore the legalities and prevention of manifestation determination hearings.
