3). Like the RTI program, the SWPBS is also a multi-tiered framework that are used to help young learners who fail to respond adequately to interventions at tier 1 (What is SWPBS?, 2016).
Relate the ways in which the combination of RTI and SWPBS can support student success in academics and promote socially acceptable behaviors conducive to learning
The combination of the RTI and SWPBS programs provides a synergistic approach that focuses on both academic outcomes as well as promoting those behaviors that are needed for a safe and effective learning environment along of continuum that recognizes special learning needs (Bohanon, Goodman & Mcintosh, 2016). Figure 1 below depicts the key components of these academic and behavior supports.

Explain how the addition of a social skills program to Tier 2: Targeted Intervention (SWPBS) can provide an extra layer of training for socially significant behaviors in the Behavior Education Program
The addition of a social skills program to Tier 2: Targeted Interventions is consistent with goals of the behavior education program because this level of intervention is specifically designed to provide young learners with the intensive instruction they need to overcome their behavioral deficits in order to graduate to Tier 1 or rejoin the general classroom (What is RTI?, 2016).
Part II
Develop a School-Wide Positive Behavior Support plan for Jackson Elementary School. Include the following:
A) Tier 1: Universal Interventions
Evidence-based practices are used to deliver high-quality educational services at Tier 1: Universal Interventions, and all students will be screened on a regular basis to determine the impact that any learning or behavioral deficits are having on suboptimal outcomes. Those young learners identified with these types of deficits will be provided with additional instruction for as long as necessary, but generally no longer than 8 weeks. Following the completion of this program, students are revaluated for their potential to return to the…
According to Bales, 1999, the concept behind SYMLOG is that "every act of behavior takes place in a larger context, that it is a part of an interactive field of influences." Further, "the approach assumes that one needs to understand the larger context -- person, interpersonal, group, and external situation -- in order to understand the patterns of behavior and to influence them successfully." With SYMLOG, measurement procedures are
Learning Disabled During the course of a child's school years they will learn to define themselves as a person and shape their personality, sense of self-concept and perception of their potential for achievement for life (Persaud, 2000). Thus the early educational years may be considered one of the most impacting and important with regard to emotional, social and cognitive development for students of all disabilities. Labeling is a common by-product of
, 2003). After 2 years of continuous intervention, children in the program showed significant improvements in academic achievement and classroom behavior in comparison to children with behavior disorders who did not take part in the program. Also, severely disruptive children showed marked improvement in self-regulation following participation in the program. Furthermore, parents of children with behavior disorders that took part in the program reported reduced stress and improved parenting practices
Adults With Learning Disabilities It has been estimated (Adult with Learning Disabilities) 1 that 50-80% of the students in Adult Basic Education and literacy programs are affected by learning disabilities (LD). Unfortunately, there has been little research on adults who have learning disabilities, leaving literacy practitioners with limited information on the unique manifestations of learning disabilities in adults. One of the major goals of the (Adult with Learning Disabilities) 1 National Adult Literacy
However, though instructional adaptations are favored, students generally preferred that homework remain uniform for all students. Students were very specific about the types of teacher practices that facilitated their understanding of grading, homework, and assignments, and provided recommendations to teachers regarding these practices. In general, students find textbook learning difficult and boring. Though they indicated that they learned a great deal from reading and answering questions, they did not like
Methods for evaluating and monitoring the effectiveness of peer-assisted learning programs are discussed as well, followed by a summary of the literature review. Background and Overview. The growing body of scholarly evidence concerning peer tutoring has been consistent in emphasizing the powerful effects that children can exert on the academic and interpersonal development of their classmates and/or other students (Ehly & Topping, 1998). For example, Bloom (1984) reported early on that
