Abstract

This thesis discusses a variety of behavioral and academic strategies for special education and general education teachers to help support students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). The literature review covers the behavioral and academic strategies themselves along with the peer-reviewed research studies on these strategies. Based on research, special education and general education teachers are able to use the behavioral and academic strategies successfully in their classroom. The different programs used to help behavioral skills for students EBD included Stop and Think, We Have Skills! (WHS), Second Step, and Fast Track. However, there are some limitations within the research, including not having a behavioral and academic strategy (self-regulated strategy development [SRSD]) replicated in the classrooms.
