● PBIS involves three elements, which work together to produce desired outcomes. Explain how these three elements will work together to produce desired outcomes. Explain how these three elements will work together specifically in your school or district in a possible PBIS model.

● Describe the 3 different types of data used in PBIS:Progress, Program Fidelity, and Student Outcome.

● Determine ways in which the processes for problem-solving and decision making at your school either resembles or differs from the models described in chapter 5.

Session 2:

Assignment 3: Read Chapters 6-10 in the course text. Using a google doc to answer the following questions: 1 page or more double spaced

● Describe the benefits of implementing PBIS as a true school-wide effort. ● Chapter 7 ( along with Chapter 2) describes the PBIS Leadership Team. Describe which specific staff roles would be good members of the team for your building. ● Demonstrate your understanding of PBIS Stages 1-3 by summarizing each stage in 2-3 sentences.

● Describe at least 2 of the benefits you look forward to in your school as you reach Stage 4 of implementation.

● Explain how you understand the term, “fidelity,” as it applies to PBIS.

Assignment 4: Application Innovate ( Your responses should be at least 1 page double space in length)

Data is one of the three main elements upon which PBIS focuses to achieve outcomes. However, “dirty data” is an issue that all schools should address. View the video and complete the assignment:

● Consider your data collection process, and respond to all of the following in one page or more.

○ Are there ways, as you collect data to begin planning your PBIS

implementation, that you could reduce the pollution of data, or maintain true measurement ( not just biased opinions of staff)?

○ How can you be sure that all staff are following the same standards? Reflect on this challenge, and how you might address it as you move toward PBIS

implementation.

Session 3:

Assignment 5: Intrinsic Motivation

There are several assessments and data measurement tools highlighted in this section, many that require the attention of an established PBIS Leadership Team. Because this is a foundational course, we would like you to try your hand at one of the tools, by completing it from your perspective. Please respond and summarize your findings in 1 or more pages double spaced.

● As a staff member, complete the Self-Assessment Survey (SAS).

● As a novice PBIS practitioner, what areas in your school do you hope to improve by implementing PBIS?

Assignment 6: Extrinsic Influence

Stage 1 focuses heavily on buy-in and commitment from the entire school in order to begin the process of implementation. Watch this video:

What is PBIS? 5 minute description and 4 main components

You know your school staff well. Consider and then describe at least 3 activities in which you

could introduce the concept of PBIS to your colleagues ( whether you are a coach, on the leadership team, or just someone who wants to establish PBIS in your school). Each of the three possible activities should be detailed enough that they can be presented by someone else. Be sure to include the following:

● At least 1 interactive activity

● Your specific rationale for why your school is a good candidate for PBIS ● A “hook” for each activity-something lively that will engage your colleagues

Session 4:

Assignment 7: Application / Implement

To ensure fidelity to the PBIS framework, it’s important to move through each phase with intention. Getting ready for PBIS involves many moving pieces to create a foundation, use the guidelines in chapter 7 to assist you in writing a Statement of Purpose and Schoolwide Expectations for your school, and explain your rationale.

If your school already has a statement of purpose and or schoolwide Expectations, explain why or why not you would like to use them ( or revise them ) for PBIS implementation. Keep in mind these would normally be team decisions based on data; we’d like to have you address these from your current perspective so you are well versed in the process. Your statement and explanation should be 1 page or more in length.

Assignment 8: Implementation P2

Implementation of PBIS relies heavily on: development of teaching procedures, lesson plans, acknowledgement of rule violations, and monitoring of implementation. After reading through the processes for the above items in chapter 8, explain your hypothetical ideas for dividing these duties so that the workload is divided as equally as possible. Be sure to include any existent resources and frameworks that can be repurposed into these processes, and include any outside new resources that need investigation. Your response for this should be 1 page or more double spaced.

Session 4:

Assignment :9 Reflection:

In 2 or more double spaced pages ( 12 point font) synthesize your learning by summarizing how your learning in this course has evolved your professional practice. Your reflection should include:

● A comparison of your learning goals

● One key takeaway from your learning

● One future learning goal related to course content

● Three or more detailed connections to specific course applications, information from readings and other completed course activities.

● YOUR CHOICE FROM ONE OF THE FOLLOWING:

○ Two or more specific ideas for changes to your professional practice with timelines for implementing changes.

○ Two or more detailed action steps you’ll take to positively influence others (students, parents, colleagues, administrators, community members, etc.), including implementation timelines.
