The School Discipline Fix – Changing Behavior Using the Collaborative Problem Solving Approach

The School Discipline Fix – Changing Behavior Using the Collaborative Problem Solving Approach

by J. Stuart Ablon (Author), Alisha R. Pollastri (Author)

Synopsis

Challenging students lack the skill-not the will-to behave. The authors' evidence-based approach allows teachers to dramatically reduce challenging classroom behaviours while helping even the most disruptive students gain the skills they need to succeed inside and outside the classroom. Step-by-step guidance and exercises are provided to help K- 12 educators implement the CPS model in both general and special-education settings.

Media Reviews
At a time when safety and a sense of connection are paramount to students in our schools, Dr. Ablon and Dr. Pollastri offer us an approach that supports both students who act out and the teachers who teach them. This book provides real-life examples of CPS in action, ensuring all school staff members--teachers, counselors, and administrators--are equipped to meet the needs of all students.--Rebecca McMurdie, MEd, Principal, KIPP Washington Heights Elementary School, NYC
Finally, the ultimate guide to CPS for schools! This book provides a framework, language, and tools for understanding and supporting all students with compassion and humanity, especially those who challenge us. This new mindset and simple assessment process upset traditional notions about why some students behave in a challenging way and leads to intervention that really works!--Tricia Bailey Sauv , MEd, Behavior/Autism Teacher/Consultant
