"A teacher's most challenging problem is the student who is frequently defiant and disruptive.  These students create problems for themselves and for the classroom as a whole.  In this teacher-friendly guide, Sylvia Rockwell uses her considerable experience to show you how to select and implement the most effective behavioral interventions to address the needs of these problem students while maintaining a cooperative classroom environment.  This book integrates compelling, real-life teaching anecdotes with descriptions of research-based strategies to help students learn appropriate behavior, both those with emotional/behavioral disorders (EBD) or other disabilities as well as those with other behavioral difficulties."
