Introduction No person is alike another; all individual beings consist of different emotions, attitudes, experiences/perspectives, likes/dislikes, and so forth. Classrooms around the globe are excellent examples of this as they consist of various diverse learners of all shapes, sizes, colors, and especially behaviors.

It is also used to identify challenging behaviors, the actions that predict the occurrence and non-occurrence of those behaviors, and how those behaviors vary across time (Ravensberg & Blakely, …show more content…
FBAs are resourceful in examining student behavior, identifying problem behavior, and determining future interventions to eliminate a problem behavior. FBA is most important for its ability to focus on problem behavior and to understand the difficulties within student behaviors as to why they are triggered and so forth. From the information learned about the topic of FBA’s, educators can benefit greatly from further investigating the topic in which they can best understand how to effectively conduct a functional behavioral assessment as well as distinguish the reasons behind effective on specific assessments and when they should be used. In the field of special education, classroom management is an important factor in not only keeping a classroom flowing correctly, but also in assisting with students being able to effectively learn within a classroom environment with no disruptions from peers or themselves. With the research brought up about FBA’s, special education educators should further investigate the use of FBA’s as many do not know that they assist in improving the effectiveness and efficiency of an interventions to address challenging behavior (Neilson & McEvoy, 2004). Additionally, special educators can also benefit greatly from further investigating
