Teachers will learn how to reduce or prevent disruptive and dangerous outbreaks and understand the possible origins of the behavior and how to mitigate and/or prevent outbursts by utilizing effective classroom management methods, student observation methods, and behavioral management techniques. Understanding how behaviors are influenced by cultural, ethnic identity and racial identity will be explored and participants will learn how to address them by using social skills training.
