    To shape student behavior, clear expectations must be defined and positive stimuli used as reinforcement. Reinforcement promotes desired behaviors by adding positive stimuli like praise or rewards, while punishment aims to extinguish unwanted behaviors by providing negative consequences or removing rewards. Both reinforcement and punishment can be achieved through positive techniques like adding rewards or negative techniques like subtracting privileges.
