- W81035044 abstract "Technology must be integrated into the curriculum if learning is to be active and functional, and where students with behavior problems are engaged in meaningful developmental processes. The following proposal aims to do exactly that. Not long ago, computers were generally utilized by students in special classes for drill and practice of basic academic and problemsolving skills that supplemented traditional instruction. Cheney, who investigated the results of CAI in classrooms for students with severe behavior problems, found that CAI leads to increased attention to task and less disruptive behavior.[1] Fitzgerald found that teachers used the computer for contingency management, cooperative learning, developing social/leisure skills and monitoring behavior.[2] Anderson-Inman urged that students with special needs use the computer as a tool to support writing tasks, as user-friendly writing programs generally motivate students to write more.[3] Finally, teachers who use technology in the classroom are likely to be positive role models affecting students' attitudes toward computers. Since teacher attitudes and efficacy are strongly influenced by their prior computer training, staff development is a key ingredient in any successful program.[4] Teachers must be comfortable and confident when using computers in the classroom if their students are to enjoy the learning process and achieve success using computers. * Reform Effort As the lead teacher of eight public school teachers in a residential facility for students with severe behavior problems, it is my responsibility to initiate school reform through school-based management. This paper describes my proposal, in detail, for utilizing computer technology to engage our students in a more active learning environment. To begin with, students with behavior problems overwhelmingly prefer the individual and immediate reinforcement that computers provide, rather than being taught by traditional methods.[1] Also, in order for school reform to reach fruition, the educational paradigm must shift from passive to active learning where students are engaged in a curriculum that connects them to the real world. Technology can serve as this bridge. Next, leaders need the visionary ability to communicate not only desirable, but attainable futures containing countless possibilities for the improvement of teaching and learning.[5] As educators, our goal is to facilitate significant changes in student achievement and behavior. Using computers in the classroom will help our students realize three objectives: * Significant improvement in academic achievement; * Improvement in behavior to a marked degree; and * A reduction in interpersonal deficits. If students with severe behavior disorders are to become productive members of our society, educators must provide them with a functional curriculum. By participating in this curriculum, students are guided toward achieving the proposed objectives while increasing their self-esteem. A curriculum that is based on social and behavioral logic will be reinforcing for these learners. Finally, school work should have a real purpose, one that affects students' lives and futures. Computers can help students examine problems, gather information and reach their own conclusions. Horner, Dunlap and Koegel believe the effectiveness of a program must be evaluated as to whether or not it can solve significant problems and / or produce meaningful enhancements of a person's lifestyle.[6] Instead of using technology to work on hypothetical problems, students are encouraged to use it when trying to resolve real problems.[7] * Basic Premise of Proposal The basis of the proposed project is this: Using a desktop publishing program, students will create the Manatee Trader, a seasonal publication of classified ads designed to generate continuous reader interest. …" @default.
