Webinar – Shaping Behavior with “ABC” and “STOP” Techniques – Part 1

Shaping Behavior with “ABC” and “STOP” Techniques – Part 1
October 4, 10:00 AM-12:00 PM
Presenter: Dr. Elaine Bernstorf

Fall brings opportunities to reframe our teaching approaches. It also brings new students and their personal learning behaviors. Even students we have taught for years change and have challenges as they mature, or don’t. By October all students shape their personal dynamics within a group.

Part 1 (Oct 4), THIS WEBINAR, explores common music classroom behaviors, including disruptions, as we use an ABC analysis model to explore behavior functions for difficult or disruptive behaviors.

Part 2 (Oct 18), BELOW, uses the STOP principle (an intervention designed by occupational therapists) to shape student behaviors and inform teacher planning using executive function decisions to support success. References and suggested resources will be included.
