Explain several types of positive behavioral supports that you think would be effective in a general education classroom to support the needs of students with challenging behaviors.

What will be an ideal response?


Answers should explain the use of FBA and PBS to support the needs of students with challenging behaviors. Responses should describe the FBA steps (indirect assessments, direct assessments, and functional analysis) and why each is important. PBS strategies may include using access to natural communities of reinforcement, using proactive methods rather than reactive methods, etc.
