Today’s Topics
How long have you been implementing?PBISCICO
What have you seen with PBIS?
Who are you? Action Planhandout
Keep an ongoing action plan throughout the day
Rules, rules, rules…
Think of a “rule” you have seen lately Share your experience (briefly) with your
neighbourWhat was it?What was your reaction?
What do we want students to learn by the time they leave school? Academic skills… Social responsibility…No chewing gum?No hats?No running in the hallways?No fighting?No PDAs?
How do we react to problem behaviour? “Joseph, I’m taking your book away because you
obviously aren’t ready to learn. That’ll teach you a lesson.”
“Hsin, you are going to learn some social responsibility by staying in timeout until the class is willing to have you back.”
“You want my attention?! I’ll show you attention…let’s take a walk down to the office & have a little chat with the Principal.”
“Karyn, you skipped 2 school days, so we’re going to suspend you for 2 more.”

School-wide PBIS Goals
1. Build systems that make it easier to teach2. Create environments that encourage (rather
than discourage) prosocial behaviour3. Teach all students what is expected 4. Provide a continuum of behaviour support
to students who need more support to be successful

Voices from Staff
PBIS “helps to create a school community where respect and responsibility are valued and education can be a focus.”
“The implementation of [PBIS] has given [this school] a positive feeling… Staff spend limited time dealing with negative behaviours and instead are able to teach children.”
Teaching Self-efficacy DefinitionThe extent to which teachers feel that they
can improve student outcomes Significantly higher in schools
implementing PBIS in Canada (Kelm & McIntosh, 2011) and the U.S. (Ross et al., 2006; 2012)

An Introduction to PBIS Assessment
www.pbisassessment.org
PBIS Assessment is a web-based computer program that allows you to enter, view generated reports, and compare data across years for PBIS decision making
And it’s free to use!
What is PBIS Assessment?
Team Implementation Checklist (TIC) PBIS Self-Assessment Survey (SAS) School-wide Evaluation Tool (SET) Benchmarks of Quality (BoQ) SWPBIS Tiered Fidelity Inventory (TFI) School Safety Survey (SSS)
What measures can be used with PBIS Assessment?
You can enter pen and paper surveys into the system or have respondents (staff, students, parents) complete surveys online
All you need to do is set up an account with your district coordinator, Chris Wood ([email protected]), and request survey completion times
How can I enter information?

PBIS Self-Assessment Survey (PBIS Survey)
Available and enterable at:www.pbisasessment.org
What is it?A staff survey of features in place and priority for
implementation (FIDELITY) Who completes it?All school staff or school team members
How long does it take?20-30 minutes
PBIS Self-Assessment Survey
What is the process?1. Request a survey link from Chris2. The school team (or entire school) completes
the survey independently3. The team (or school) identifies areas that
have low implementation and high priority for its action plan
PBIS Self-Assessment Survey
1. Identify systems for focusCurrent status of “in place” is < 40%, andPriority for improvement is “high” for > 50%School-wide and Non-classroom are core
2. Identify specific features within the specific systemSelect smallest change that will make biggest
difference Incorporate into ACTION PLAN

Teaching Academics & Behaviours
Behaviourchange is an instructional
process
Behaviours are prerequisites for academics Procedures and routines create structure Repetition is key to learning new skills:For a child to learn something new, it needs to
be repeated on average of ___ times Adults average ____ - Joyce & Showers, 2006
For a child to unlearn an old behaviour and replace with a new behaviour, the new behaviourmust be repeated on average ___ times (Harry Wong)
Why Develop a System forTeaching Behaviour?
…in the washrooms
…in the cafeteria
Teach in Context

Secondary School example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5C-Wyy_lPNk
Using Instructional Videos to Teach Expectations
Teaching Schedule Example: Cultus Lake Community School
September = RespectfulOctober = ResponsibleNovember = Ready(then recycle as needed)
Theme of The Month Identify times, places, and expectations
that require reteaching for multiple students
OptionsReteach with same lessonsVideosGames (Expectations Jeopardy)Embed into curricula
Use Booster Lessons as Needed Throughout the Year
TIC: Establish Expectations
All students, regardless of age, need some level of teacher attention.
Good behaviour, expected behaviour, is GUARANTEED to obtain teacher attention.
Bad behaviour, serious problem behaviour, is GUARANTEED to obtain teacher attention.
Let’s do an exercise with this …
(Colvin, 2010)
On-going Acknowledgement of Appropriate Behaviour
Every faculty and staff member acknowledges appropriate behaviour
5 to 1 ratio of positive to negative contacts
System that makes acknowledgement easy and simple for students and staff
Different strategies for acknowledging appropriate behaviour (small frequent incentives more effective)
Summit PositiveBehaviourSlip
Examinations of continued use of skills and ratings of personal interest
Verbal rewardsStrong positive effects and very few
detrimental effects Tangible rewardsMost studies show strong positive effectsSome detrimental effects in some
circumstances
Results of 40 Years of Research into Motivation
Preschool students were observed in a drawing activity of initial intrinsic interest
Two conditions No reward Expected reward
Students were observed again in same activity, measuring percent of time on task
Students who received the expected reward spent less time drawing in subsequent free time
Lepper et al., 1973
Rewards are expected Rewards are given only once, and then
stopped Rewards are given for activities with high
intrinsic interest Rewards are delivered to coerce future
behavior
Tangible rewards may decreaseintrinsic motivation when:
Tangible rewards may increaseintrinsic motivation when: Rewards are unexpected Rewards are given intermittently Rewards are given for activities with low
initial intrinsic interest
TIC: Establish Expectations
Clear set of definitions for all categories on the office discipline referral form exists
Once behaviours are defined, all faculty, staff, administration, students and families will need to be trained on the definitions

Summit Behaviour Slip
When you see it…Label it (using language of expectations)Reinforce it
When you don’t…Use a signal (that has been taught)Label and reinforce appropriate behaviour
Look continuously for appropriate behaviour
Acknowledge other students’ use of desired behaviour
Wait for appropriate behaviour, then…ReinforcePrompt expected behavior and reinforce
Look to reinforce future appropriate behaviour
When minor, non-interfering problem behaviour occurs…
Use proximity but approach at eye level from side
Ask the student to self-assess their behaviour Ask the student what would be appropriate
behaviorRemind/model as needed
Disengage and provide time to choose Have the student practice appropriate behavior Positively reinforce Look to reinforce future appropriate behaviour
When minor, interfering problem behaviour occurs…
Follow school procedures Use a professional teaching voice Remain calm Be consistent
When major problem behaviouroccurs…
Identify what triggers problem behaviourCreate plan to prevent it
Identify what reinforces problem behaviourTake care not to reinforce it
Identify a more appropriate way for student to meet her/his needsTeach and practice it
When repeated problem behaviour occurs…
Teach the right wayModeling, asking, progressive time delayJumping in to solve problem may not teachKeep it brief
Use positive practiceMildly aversiveActual practice in

How do we make our responses more instructional?
1. Tell me what happened2. What you were thinking at the time?3. What do you think about it now?4. Who did this affect?5. What do you need to do about it?6. How can we make sure this doesn't
happen again?7. What I can do to help you?

Tier 3 SystemsFor students with
significant challenges
Tier 2 SystemsFor students at risk
for challenges
A program to add:Mentoring by an adult in the school who looks
out for the studentStructured process of feedback and
recognition to a school day Instruction in needed skills School-home communicationBuilt-in monitoring of student progress
Check-in Check-out (CICO)(aka the Behaviour Education Program)
Public schools with typical resources No “hired guns”
Implemented from Pre-K to Secondary School Rated by teachers and students as efficient,
effective, and acceptable Results for most students (Grades PK to 12):
Reductions in problem behaviour Increases in academic engagement Reduced ratings of problem behaviour Increased ratings of prosocial behaviour
Research on CICO to date:Over 20 published studies 1. Improved structure in all locations
Links student with multiple adults in the school Prompts are provided throughout the day for correct behaviour
Why does CICO work?
1. Improved structure in all locations Links student with multiple adults in the school Prompts are provided throughout the day for correct behaviour
2. Student is set up for success First contact each morning is positive “Blow-out” days are pre-empted First contact each class period is positive and provides
momentum3. Increase in performance feedback and recognition
Feedback occurs more often and is tied to student behaviour Feedback is encouraging Mentor recognition at end of day (tangible optional)
Why does CICO work?1. Improved structure in all locations
Links student with multiple adults in the school Prompts are provided throughout the day for correct behaviour
2. Student is set up for success First contact each morning is positive “Blow-out” days are pre-empted First contact each class period is positive and provides
momentum3. Increase in performance feedback and recognition
Feedback occurs more often and is tied to student behaviour Feedback is encouraging Mentor recognition at end of day (tangible optional)
4. Linking school and home support Provide format for positive student/parent contact
5. The ultimate goal is student self-regulation Gives skills to self-monitor and manage their performance
Why does CICO work?
Connecting students with caring and supportive adults
Connecting students and teachers through meaningful performance feedback
Connecting home and school through increased communication
CICO is about CONNECTING:
