This professional training video demonstrates the Behavior Education Program (BEP), the Tier 2 intervention comprehensively described in the book Responding to Problem Behavior in Schools. Scenes set in classrooms and other school and home settings depict such nonaggressive problem behaviors as disruption, defiance, and tardiness, and show how teachers, other school personnel, and parents can work with students effectively to implement the steps of the BEP. In addition, an interview with BEP codeveloper Dr. Leanne S. Hawken provides answers to frequently asked questions. A special feature of the DVD is a set of reproducible forms and training materials that can be downloaded on the purchaser's computer as PDFs or PowerPoint files.

Reviews

"The Behavior Education Program has been a highly worthwhile and time-efficient program for at-risk students in my district. As a school psychologist, this DVD has allowed me to easily and effectively train school teams, including paraprofessionals, on the implementation steps of this dynamic intervention. I highly recommend this DVD as a training tool for a targeted intervention that works!"

"This DVD is worth its weight in gold for trainers teaching the BEP to school staff. I recently used the DVD at a national conference with counselors, family members, and educators, and the audience was very impressed with the high quality and clear examples. All of the program components are illustrated: check-in, teacher feedback, check-out, reinforcing student progress, and home contacts. This DVD is a great example of how evidence-based practices can be presented to achieve optimal outcomes for teachers and students."
