Effective Strategies for K-12 Teachers

This program provides a clear, easy-to-use strategy for encouraging student cooperation and correcting non-compliant behavior.

With realistic vignettes, in-depth analysis by Dr. Geoff Colvin, and well-timed review and summary, Managing Non-Compliance is a practical, results-oriented program designed to help teachers minimize the kinds of common problem behaviors that often disrupt the teaching-learning process. Common troublesome behaviors are covered, including:

• Defiance
• Resistance to directions
• Not minding
• Insubordination
• Oppositional behavior

Staff working with students at all levels from kindergarten through secondary school can use these strategies to reduce non-compliance and increase cooperation in the classroom and common areas. This program is appropriate for school administrators, regular and special education teachers, and support staff.

Here is what you get:
