Case study 2: The chatterers
https://www.chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/disruptive-student-behavior/22792
Behaviours:
:warning: frequently talking to others on irrelavant topics to the lesson
:warning: being disruptive to the class
:warning: being inattentive and unfocused
PBIS intervention and support
Tier 1
use non-verbal cues, give student a sign to be quiet. If the students stop chatting, give verbal praise.
proximity to the students. stay close to the students while give instruction, making sure the chat ceases and they are back on task.
If the students still chat to each other while I am close to them, then I would stop the instruction, pointing out their misbehaviour and reinforcing the class rules and expectations.
Data tracking: use the online behaviouural tracking system or any behavioural track documents used by the school
Tier 2
If the tier 1 strategies don't work and the students still show same disruption in the class, then the chatterers will be assigned new seats, an oral discussion will be conducted to discuss their issues. Depending on their behaviours, they may be allowed to sit back with their friends.
A behaviour contract will be drafted and requested students to sign it. Expectations and consequences will be communicated clearly with students both orally and on the contract. If students break the contract, direct consequences will be acted.
If the students continue to disrupt the class, they will be sent off the classroom to to dean's office. A formal meeting will be organized to discuss and tackle the issue.
Data tracking: behaviour contract and intervention document, meeting minutes etc.
Tier 3
If the tier 2 strategies still don't take effect, parents will be formally informed of the misbehaviour, a meeting with parents will be organized.
Students will be assigned special seats in class to prevent any disruptive chat with others. Students will be completing a daily behaviour form. If any serious disruption occurs again, they will be given detention.
Data tracking: intervention documents, daily behaviour form
Case study 1: The entitled
https://www.chronicle.com/blogs/profhacker/disruptive-student-behavior-the-entitled-students/38720
Behaviours:
:warning: skipping classes for various excuses (family vacation, personal issues, taking competition or exams etc.)
:warning: missing deadline or asking for retake of exams
:warning: frequent tardiness
PBIS intervention and support
Tier 1
If the student requests to take a leave, ask him to provide a valid consent note from the parents with their signature.
If the student misses deadline for the first time, communicate with him/her face-to-face to understand the reason. If the student has a valid excuse, give extension for the deadline. Otherwise request the student to make up the missed work but give 0 credit for the work.
If the student are frequently being unpunctual, talk to the student with neutral and calm tone, emphasize the class rule and expectations, come up with plans of natural consequences, for instance, the student needs to make up the missed time after school time.
Tier 3
Set up a meeting with parents to discuss the issue and the inform them the potential consequences of the issue, invite the parents to collaborate with the school to tackle the problem.
Set individual contract with the student, communicate clearly the expectations and consequences of breaking the contract.
Tier 2
If the student asks too frequent leaves with parents' consent, arrange a self-learning plan with the student that can help him/her stay on task, making sure all the assignments and tasks are completed on time. Discuss the logical consequence and hold the student accountable for the learning.
If the student frequently misses the deadline, organize a meeting with the student and find out the exact reasons. If the student struggles on the task, assign a study buddy or provide extra individual help. If it is because of attitude issue, request students to make up the assignments but also give logical consequences.
Have meeting with other subject teachers and discuss the pattern of the student's issue. Meet with the student and inform parents the issue.
Data tracking system:
use the school attendance and academic tracking system to moniter the student's attendance and academic performance
