Functional behavior assessment, data tracking, and de-escalation strategies for managing classroom conduct. Addresses positive reinforcement, token economies, and individualized behavior contracts to support student self-regulation.
This sequence applies Organizational Behavior Management (OBM) principles to improve employee performance and organizational systems through positive reinforcement, pinpointing, and evidence-based training models.
This graduate-level sequence examines the ethical and systemic implications of behavioral surveillance in schools. Students will critique traditional tracking methods through the lenses of privacy law, psychological theory, and cultural equity to design more humane, dignity-affirming support systems.
This sequence explores the neurobiological foundations of student escalation, connecting internal physiological stress responses (the 'amygdala hijack') to observable external warning signs. Students will learn to depersonalize behavior by understanding it as a biological survival mechanism, training them to recognize subtle somatic, respiratory, and muscular cues before a full behavioral outburst occurs.
This sequence trains undergraduate students in behavioral health and education to identify the early warning signs of crisis. Students move from establishing behavioral baselines to analyzing motor, verbal, and passive indicators of escalation through case studies and clinical observation.
A high-intensity, simulation-based training sequence for graduate students to master real-time identification of behavioral escalation cues. Students move from identifying subtle micro-behaviors to managing their own physiological responses during high-fidelity crisis simulations.
A graduate-level sequence exploring Social Learning Theory applied to behavior modification, focusing on therapeutic modeling, guided mastery, and systemic intervention design in clinical and organizational settings.
This graduate-level sequence focuses on the interpersonal and therapeutic aspects of behavior contracting. Rather than treating the contract as a static document, students explore it as a collaborative intervention designed to build student agency, self-regulation, and stakeholder alignment using Motivational Interviewing and negotiation strategies.
A graduate-level sequence focused on the intersection of implementation science and behavior analysis. Students learn to measure treatment fidelity, provide performance feedback, and ethically modify Behavior Intervention Plans (BIPs) based on concurrent implementation and outcome data.
