Welcome to the coursesite for the Edu 502: Behavior Management class!
Through this course we will be exploring different types of behaviors and behavioral disorders that you might see in your own classrooms. We will also work to develop behavior plans with the goal to change an undesired classroom behavior to a more desired behavior.
This site has been created to add to your classroom experience. The section on Behavior Disorders suggests different behaviors that you will probably encounter during your teaching career. The articles and summaries that have been posted in these sections are meant to help you further understand how these behaviors function in and affect your classroom. The Behavior Modification Section is another forum where you can add articles, techniques, and practical applications for how to modify student behavior.
This website is yours to keep! The information you develop on it now will always be there and is a great resource for you to come back to when you're teaching!
Good luck and feel free to email me at sarah@american.edu if you have any questions!
