Author Description

"Classroom Management: A Proactive Approach is based on three basic principles - classrooms should be learning communities; many behaviors can be prevented; and teacher interventions should promote positive change in classroom behavior." "This comprehensive text: provides teachers with practical strategies in managing classroom behavior based on theories of human behavior; discusses contemporary topics on diversity, social skill instruction, and positive behavior support; and encourages teachers to reflect on their assumptions and look for causes and solutions when students misbehave."--BOOK JACKET
