Using What Works

Many teachers-in-training and their more experienced collaegues find classroom management challenging. Using What Works invites elementary school teachers to look beyond untested strategies. Instead, this book presents an evidence-based approach. Equipped with a greater knowledge of scientifically informed classroom management, teachers will learn how and why some things work, while others do not. The most current knowledge on classroom management is presented in this book in six comprehensive yet easily accessible chapters. Numerous evidence-based strategies for supporting classroom management are offered. In addition, interventions that have been proven to work are described. Each chapter concludes with recommended readings, course assignments, and suggestions for in-depth discussions. --Back cover.
