Title: Promoting Prosocial Behaviors in the Classroom: An Intensive Summer Training Program
Dates: August 15, 16, 17, 2017
Time: 9:00 AM - 4:00 PM
Location: Montclair State University, Location TBA
Instructor: Dr. Imad Zaheer

This three day intensive professional development series will provide comprehensive trainings on evidence-based classroom practices that promote prosocial behavior and increase student academic engagement. These strategies will be presented within a multi-tiered model framework (see figure below) that focuses on multiple level of services, starting off with universal strategies meant to prevent behavior problems (Tier 1), followed by targeted group strategies (Tier 2) and intensive individualized strategies for individual students (Tier 3). 

The trainings across these three tiers will all be interactive, providing teachers and other school professionals opportunities to work in groups, and develop materials to use the strategies for their own school/classrooms. Additionally, each participant will leave a full comprehensive plan on how to set up their classrooms for success, promote prosocial behaviors, and how to respond to challenges. This will include tips for implementation and how to assess if the practices are in place as intended.
