Title: A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step Chinese Proverb Pick battles big enough


1
A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a
single step
-Chinese
ProverbPick battles big enough to matter,
small enough to win.
-Jonathan Kozol, On Being a Teacher

FBAs BIPs
  • Presented by
  • Kelleah Lewis Melissa Myers

3
Agenda Expectations
  • Practice identifying key components of an FBA
  • Create your own FBA (by identifying the nature of
    the current reinforcer
  • Be able to apply information from FBA to the
    writing of a BIP (e.g. choosing appropriate
    replacement behavior that serves the same
    function or meets the same need)

4
Functional Behavior Assessments
  • The purpose of conducting an FBA is to help the
    team collaboratively develop an effective
    Behavior Plan that meets a students individual
    needs
  • The goal is to identify the nature of the current
    reinforcer, in other words, how does this
    behavior fulfill a student need
  • The goal is not to suppress inappropriate
    behavior it is to increase positive prosocial
    behaviors Eric Hartwig

5
FBA Behavior
  • Choose those 1 to 3 behaviors that are the most
    problematic
  • Be specific when identifying behavior

6
Model Behavior
7
Guided Practice Behavior
  • Think of a student that you work with or have
    worked with
  • Identify one of the students behaviors that is /
    or was especially challenging
  • Complete the Behavior section of your blank FBA
  • Remember to be concrete specific

8
FBA Triggers
  • Triggers are those factors which may cause and/or
    result in display of the identified behaviors
  • Triggers may be direct or indirect
  • Some examples may include
  • Inability to do task or perception that he/she
    cannot do task
  • Sensory needs (need for movement, hunger etc.)
  • Change or challenges at home

9
FBA Setting Factors
  • Time of day
  • Day of the week
  • Class / subject
  • Period
  • Teacher
  • Structured v. unstructured times (classroom v.
    halls)

10
Data Collection
  • To determine triggers, setting factors
    functions
  • Conduct observations
  • Interview the student
  • Interview parents, teachers or other staff
  • Use questionnaires, checklists or rating scales
  • Review previous records
  • Track review other behavioral data

11
Model Triggers Setting Factors
12
Guided Practice Triggers Setting Factors
  • Now, based on the behavior you identified on your
    own FBA, list possible triggers setting factors
  • Note For today you will do this based on
    information you already have. However, in
    practice, a team would utilize a number of
    methods to gather data over a period of time.

13
FBA Function of Behavior
When kids misbehave, they are communicating in
the only way that they know how. They are telling
us a need is unfilled or trying to meet the need
themselves
  • Common Functions Include
  • Avoidance (cant do or wont do)
  • Power Control (including revenge, perceived
    justice)
  • Attention (adult, peer or both)

14
Guided Practice Function
Based on your identified behavior, the triggers,
setting factors your own expertise List the
possible function(s)
15
Now you can do the BIP!
  • Now that the team has conducted an FBA, you
  • can begin to identify possible interventions.
  • As you construct the BIP, remember
  • The FBA is the basis or backbone of the BIP
  • The team must identify a realistic, practical
    replacement behavior that meets the same need or
    function

16
Implementation of BIP
  • Even the most effective BIP will not change the
    behavior dramatically in a short period
  • Often, with an effective plan, the behavior gets
    worse before it gets better
  • Many experts say it takes 6 weeks for real
    behavior change to take place
  • Its crucial for the team to implement the plan
    consistently with integrity for several weeks
