Multi-Component Consultation Package: Improving Teacher Classroom Management Skills and Student Behavior

A multi-component consultation package is used to address the problem of teachers' difficulties in implementing behavioral classroom interventions with integrity. The package targets three malleable teacher characteristics: knowledge about best practices, skills to implement these practices, and beliefs about the acceptability or feasibility of interventions. The package includes a knowledge enhancement component, a skills component, and a beliefs component. The knowledge enhancement component involves providing teachers with education on ADHD and behavior theory through fact sheets and workshops. The skills component involves providing teachers with enhanced performance feedback and skills practice to address areas for growth in skills. The beliefs component involves using techniques informed by motivational interviewing to address possible barriers to integrity related to teacher beliefs.
