This can be a big effect on a student’s life, which can question their act of worthiness and ability; it can also be big problem to their confidence and self-esteem.…
Juno’s case deals with a myriad of issues of early abandonment, low human interaction, racism, bullying, and even linguistic problems. However, as focusing on the past are not the salient points for behavioral approach, our goal here is to teach Juno to eliminate unwanted behaviors and learn new behaviors that most possibly can overcome his social anxiety disorder. In a way, he learned those certain types of inappropriate behaviors, so it is possible to learn new behaviors to decrease his inappropriate behaviors and to increase his appropriate behaviors. As a matter of fact, if he continues with his inappropriate behavior regardless to inside or outside of school, it’s unacceptable and possibly might get worse. In addition, despite what went…
Furthermore, this behavior is dishonest as it cheats students and makes them not to have a reason to address their learning problems. In order to address this issue, failing or flunking can be used as a positive learning tool to encourage learning (Rosa and Paul…
Challenging behaviors happen for a reason and when a child display a challenging behavior there is something that they are trying to accomplish. If this behavior did affect the child development and people around him/her positively, there would not be a need to replace this behavior. That is why when selecting a positive replacement behavior there are some strategies and guidelines that must be follow in order for that replacement behavior to be taught successfully. Initially, there are many strategies and recommendations for teaching positive replacement behavior but all researchers can agree that when teaching positive replacement behavior, it is necessary that the replacement behavior functions the same as the challenging behavior when it…
Extrinsic Rewards Undermining Altruistic Tendencies in 20-Month Olds This is an experimental study about how the influence of rewards can affect how a child with a certain task. Children were randomly selected to one of three conditions in either the treatment phase or the test phase. The three conditions consist of: material reward, praise, and neutral reward. (Warneken & Tomasello, 2008)…
II. The Research Section In today’s economy, professional sports entertainers are worth much more than they should be. A NBA player should not be able to make 5.15 million first starting out, while a teacher is barely starting at 30k. A teacher will spend up to eight to ten hours sculpting the minds of the future, not including the time set aside outside of school to prepare.…
Ladd 's (1981) perspective on enhancing children 's social behaviour Ladd (1981) is a professor who are major in psychology and of human development at Arizona State University.

This publication record implies that Ladd may be an authority on the topic of children’s social behaviour.…
Social skills play a very important role in a child’s health and well-being. Without friendships, school can be a very unhappy, lonely place that a child might want to avoid. It is a big issue that many of the students face. They may be good at studies, but a small boosting will be required to take the students to top scorers.…
There are many pros and cons that come with labeling a child with a disorder, first lets look at the pros. The pros of labeling a child is that the parents now have an idea on how to help their child. If a child is hyperactive and they finally get their child diagnosed with ADHD then they can get medication for them that will help the child. In the long run this child can focus more in school. In this case it is beneficial to label a child.…
The purpose of this case study is to investigate whether the rewards system within a school has any impact upon pupil progress and learning. I have a keen interest in this topic, following observations within different school environments which have different rewards systems, I have become interested in developing my own practise in how pupil’s perceive the rewards system and how this system actually impacts upon pupil’s behaviour and progress. The school improvement plan in my placement, guidance, recent research and policies from OFSTED and the Department for Education as well as my personal interest in the topic means this investigation is relevant to the current educational climate. My placement school’s improvement plan (2015) highlights the need to develop “fairness within the rewards” system in order to improve…
Merit pay has long been a debatable topic. Supporters have viewed them as a tool to raise the professionalism in teaching while the opponents have believed it has been unfair to teachers. From my view, I agree that merit pay is unmerited to teachers and it can be a detrimental to students. Therefore, I disagree that the teachers should get paid based on students test scores.…

Competition is everywhere. Opportunity of getting success is limited; however, the competitors are considerable. Athletes want to be champions, employees struggle for being managers, and students desire for being honor students. Grades might be the best way to measure the achievement of students. It is undeniable that some students are more competitive than other mediocre students because of the higher grades.…
For the past few weeks I have been volunteering in Ms. Fogarty’s 1st grade class at Pine Meadow Elementary from 8:30 to 9:50 in the morning. In her class I work with 6 and 7 year olds. There are desks set up into 3 rows, and also what they call the east and west wings that are connected to the sides of row 3. These rows are used to call students back for green sheets and for reading checks every morning. The way that the classroom is set up allows the children to communicate with one another, but also still be able to work alone if they want.…
According to Tom Smith, Edward Polloway, James Patton, and Carol Dowdy, the instructional pressure for all teachers to teach increasingly complex curricula, while addressing a wide array of needs, became greater (2012, p. 109). Classroom management is a huge key to students learning. Not only that but behavior management is part of that because as a teacher you exhaust your time and yourself just trying to manage students’ behavior. Differentiation in the classroom is not only your instruction but taking into account your students are diverse in learning and personal self. With that there are seating arrangements, positive reinforcement, and behavior management.…
