Reflection

 

The evidence I am submitting is a Behavior intervention Plan. In this class Taught by Dr, Paul, I was required to conduct a Behavior Invention Plan on a case study of Educ 310 Teaching Students with Behavior Disorders, I was required to complete at least ten (10) hours of supervised field experience working with teachers, support staff, a student and the student’s family to implement two specific strategies aimed at changing a student’s challenging behaviors.  This assignment required me to complete the following tasks: 1) Select an inclusive setting that caters to students with emotional/behavioral disorders, 2) Conduct a Functional Behavior Assessment of the student, 3) Develop a Behavior Intervention Plan with input from the student, teachers, parents and other personnel, 4) Schedule dates, times and settings for interventions, 5) Design and conduct periodic assessments to monitor the student’s progress both at home and at school, 6) Prepare weekly reports on the student’s progress in learning and practicing these strategies, and 7) Meet with the student’s family to discuss outcomes of interventions and share student’s final progress report. The requirements for this project speak to NAEYC Standard 3 Observing, Documenting, And Assessing to Support Young Children and Families. Candidates prepared in early childhood degree programs understand that child observation, documentation, and other forms of assessment are central to the practice of all early childhood professionals. They a) know about and understand the goals, benefits, and uses of assessment. They b) know about and use systematic observations, documentation, and other effective assessment strategies c) in a responsible way, d) in partnership with families and other professionals, to positively influence the development of every child. The assignment had different parts, which required me to design a plan for each part with the permission of the teacher and parents. A study of this type takes time to conduct and record findings, in order to have positive results. The CEC Standard 2: Development and Characteristics of Learners states Special educators know and demonstrate respect for their students first as unique human beings which ties in perfectly with this intervention plan.
