This comprehensive textbook outlines a holistic approach to inclusive classroom management. It critically examines the limitations inherent in behaviorism-based methods— particularly the Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (PBIS) framework rooted in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA)— and offers an alternative that integrates the full spectrum of student needs and the complexities of modern educational dynamics. Addressing the interconnected crises of falling academic standards, rising teacher turnover, and growing student behavioral and emotional challenges, the book presents a comprehensive, actionable strategy for accurately identifying classroom deficiencies and effectively responding to them in a student-centered way. Applicable to both special education and general educational contexts, Classroom Behavior Management for General and Special Educators is key reading for pre-service teachers in classroom and behavior management courses, as well as in-service teachers, teacher educators, and school administrators seeking new ways to address student behavior.
