    COURSE DESCRIPTION:
    This course will focus on understanding and dealing with challenging student behaviours frequently
    seen in the regular classroom. Class time will be spent studying theories commonly used to
    understand the problems of children and youth, reviewing intervention research, and examining
    teacher beliefs that underlie teacher interventions.

    Students are expected to attend and participate in every class.

    Student are also expected to submit a report on each of the required texts. Each report should
    include a summary of the text content (in sufficient detail to assure the instructor that the text was
    carefully read), a discussion of how the content can be applied to their teaching, and a brief
    discussion of the students personal reaction to the text content. For the Friend/Cook book,
    students should apply the content to their experience working with inclusion projects; and for the
    Wood/Long book, students should write about how the content applies to their conversations with
    children.
    C.
    Students who wish to earn an A or the equivalent of an A must also write a research paper on a
    topic negotiated with the instructor.
    D.
    Additionally, there will be several overnight writing assignments that are part of the class
    participation expectations. These activities make it particularly important that students complete
    the readings prior to class so the schedule will be manageable.

    readings will receive a B in the class.
