Behavior Management : A Practical Approach for Educators (9th Edition)
  
Exceptionally practical, this book combines theoretical background with case studies and numerous examples to demonstrate how to apply behavior management techniques in general and special educational settings. Examines the field from four points of view -- behavioral, psychodynamic, biophysical, and environmental. Focuses on the integrative/ecological approach to behavior management which provides a framework for combining various strategies into a cohesive implementation plan. Contains the most recent information on modifications in federal law passed by Congress and signed by President Clinton in 1997 regarding learners with disabilities. Includes skill-building projects in every chapter. Offers worksheets and forms which demonstrate how properly handled paperwork improves instruction. For new and prospective general and special education teachers.

I was told by my county's recruiter to get a book on behavior management to learn more about behavior management strategies. I found this book here and purchased and now am halfway through the book. I think this is an excellent book for anyone who wants to learn behavior management - especially educators. It discusses methods, techniques, assessment, and strategies to solve any behavior. It gives great examples as well. I would highly recommend getting this book.

(Hide Review...)  Good Resource

We are using this book in our Masters Degree in Education and it is actually pretty good. For Psychologists it turns to be a little bit basic but this book was written for an educational environment, so the ideas and tips are simple and in-frame. Also the explanation of behavioral modification terms and technicalities are easy to understand for people who didn't study Psychology. I recommend it.
