Synopsis

Most applied behavior analysis (ABA) texts rely heavily on research findings and technical theory, making them inaccessible for use by everyday teachers. Applied Behavior Analysis in Schools: Realistic Implementation of Evidence-Based Interventions by Teachers aims to be the missing link between books on classroom interventions within teacher preparation programs.

Dr. R. Nicolle Carr leverages her years of expertise with ABA and channels it into creating practical, realistic working models of ABA that any teacher can use. Her "by teachers, for teachers" approach to writing effectively outlines ABA strategies so that they can be used with few resources and minimal training.

Applied Behavior Analysis in Schools is tailored toward future and current educators to enable them to learn invaluable tools like how to effectively take data in a classroom to help with academic performance or behavior management--without requiring them to possess a background in ABA.

What's included in Applied Behavior Analysis in Schools:

• Chapters on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
• The role of cultural considerations and collaboration skills
• Use of ABA in transition skills
• Applying ABA to academics and an overview of assessments

Included with the text are online supplemental materials for faculty use in the classroom.

Applied Behavior Analysis in Schools: Realistic Implementation of Evidence-Based Interventions by Teachers takes the concepts of ABA and presents them to teachers in a way that is both approachable and applicable.

A propos du livre

À propos de l?auteur

Dr. R. Nicolle Carr started her education at Oklahoma City University's psychology program before heading down to Austin to attend the University of Texas's psychology/behavior neuroscience department. She worked in two labs concurrently - one studying the effect of conditioning on the mating behavior of quail and another lab learning genetic sequencing, slicing brain tissue, and metabolic imaging. Finally, she left with a PhD and joined the 9 to 5 rat race at a residential treatment facility for individuals with significant behavior problems. In 2008, she became a Board Certified Behavior Analyst and has been teaching both online and in person for more than 20 years. Back in Oklahoma for the past 10 years, she has consulted in various school districts on functional behavior assessment development and provided district-wide classroom management trainings. It was during this time that she noted how many times what is learned in general applied behavior analysis (ABA) textbooks or journal articles doesn't always translate into classrooms. For 4 years, she also served as the Director of the ABA program at the University of Oklahoma and helped many students on their own certification journey. Most recently, she became the Clinical Director of an ABA clinic in a rural area of Oklahoma. Dr. Carr has written chapters on ethics in research methods and ethics in rural treatment in ABA. She has served as the secretary of the ABAi's Ethics SIG and founded the Oklahoma chapter of ABAi (OKABA). Across the last decade, she has served on conference panels, given invited lectures, and 8-hour workshops related to using ABA in schools. When not working, Dr. Carr enjoys pushing her physical limits. In June 2014, 2016, and 2018, she and her husband hiked 210 miles of a pilgrimage called the Camino de Santiago across Spain. In July 2022, they summited Kilimanjaro--the most amazing and brutal hiking experience ever!
