Best Practice Review.

Abstract

Students with Emotional Behavior Disorders (EBD) are being mainstreamed into the classroom at a rapid pace. Administrators are feeling the pressure from the state and national governments to include students with EBD into the inclusive classroom. A Best Practice Review will be carried out to discuss research based Best Practices to use in the classroom. The literature will be reviewed to see if students with EBD can be placed in the inclusive classroom setting and if they can, what types of interventions have been proven effective. The interventions strategies will be discussed in detail so teachers can apply it to their own classroom. Also, research based studies will be discussed that show the effectiveness or lack thereof in each intervention. The Best Practice Interventions that will be discussed include Class-Wide Peer Tutoring, Mystery Motivators, and The Good Behavior Game.
