ESE 601 Week 4 Assignment Universal Learning Characteristics

Universal Learning Characteristics

[WLOs: 2, 3] [CLOs: 2, 3]

Even when you proactively predict your students’ behaviors and plan for every situation,
problems will still arise that need to be managed. Therefore, it is important to be able to
accurately identify adverse or interfering behaviors and proactively implement research-based
practices to meet the needs of your student(s) and not disrupt the flow of instruction and the
overall learning process. This assignment provides an opportunity for you to research and
identify evidence-based practices that can be used for immediate or future implementation.

Prepare

Prior to beginning work on this assignment,

 Read Sections 9.1 and 9.2 and all of Chapters 11 and 12 in your textbook.
 Read The 16 Proactive Classroom Management Skills to Support Academic Engagement (Links to
an external site.).
 Read Fads or Facts? Sifting Through The Evidence to Find What Really Works.
 Review Page 7: Collect Data: Direct Observations(Links to an external site.).
 Review Page 6: Evaluating Student Performance (Links to an external site.).
 Review What Works Clearinghouse(Links to an external site.).
 Review the course and weekly learning outcomes.
 Carefully read the assignment instructions, which offers a comprehensive summary of task
expectations.
 Watch the video Week 4 Managing Classroom Behavior(Links to an external site.).
 Read the scenario below carefully.
 Review the Week 6 final paper(Resource Manual for Educating Students With Exceptionalities)
description to see where this artifact fits into your final paper.

Reflect

In the field of education, you will work with varying exceptionalities and diverse individual
needs. These needs will include academic, behavioral, and social/emotional skills. Both general
and special education educators are expected to address adverse or interfering classroom
behaviors, which include implementing effective and evidence-based strategies that promote a
high-quality learning environment. This assignment offers an opportunity to analyze a given
scenario and research and identify quality evidence-based behavior strategies that strongly align
with student needs.

As you navigate this assignment consider:

 How characteristics of these behaviors impact student outcomes and educational performance.
 The importance and value of selecting effective evidence-based behavioral strategies that align
with student needs.
 How this assignment will impact your current or future practices working with exceptional
learners.

Scenario

Dave attends class regularly and enjoys math. He likes to solve geometry problems and prefers
kinesthetic hands-on learning. Dave struggles attending to task and staying focused in the
classroom setting. He has difficulty staying seated for long periods of time and will often get out
of his seat and move around the classroom without permission. Dave is often impulsive and will
shout out answers without raising his hand, which disrupts instruction and the overall classroom
setting. Dave also becomes social at inappropriate times and will excessively talk to his
classmates, which adversely impacts the teaching and learning process.
 

Take Action

Content Instructions:

Use support from your assignment reading, the Instructor Guidance lesson, and the discussions.
In your paper,

 Provide a hypothesis, which offers a possible function of the observed behaviors.


o This includes “why” these behaviors may be occurring:
 To gain attention.
 To escape or avoid tasks or activities.
 To gain access to tangible items or activities.
 To gain or avoid self-reinforcing/sensory stimulation.
o Research and identify at least three evidence-based behavior strategies that are
functionally equivalent and that align with the student’s needs.
 Use weekly resources and the What Works Clearinghouse(Links to an external
site.) to help identify research-based strategies.
 Support your recommendations with scholarly literature.
o Explain how each of these strategies will be effective for the identified behaviors in the
scenario.
o Summarize how the strategies might be used proactively in the future.
o Reflect on why you chose these strategies and how they best meet the student’s needs.
