Dealing With Difficult Behavior In The Classroom

TARGET GROUP
Professionals in the education sector (e.g., teachers, guidance counselors, principals, and administrators at elementary, middle, higher education, vocational institutions, kindergartens and pre-primary schools) and non-governmental organization (NGO) staff.
Description
Dealing with difficult behavior in the classroom can be a challenging task for educators. It is important to understand that difficult behavior may be a symptom of an underlying condition, such as Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Children with ASD and/or ADHD may struggle with social interactions, communication, and impulse control, which can lead to disruptive behavior in the classroom. This training course is designed to provide educators with the knowledge and skills needed to understand and effectively manage difficult behavior in the classroom, specifically in children with ASD and/or ADHD.
Certain students give the impression of being impossible to instruct in any way. It’s possible that they have problems with their social lives, their emotions, and their behaviors; that they are unmotivated and disinterested in learning; that they are reclusive and unable to communicate.
ºìÌÒÊÓƵing objectives
Successful graduates of the course will have the knowledge and skills to do the following:
Developing an understanding of the underlying causes of difficult behavior, particularly as it relates to Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and/or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
- Building strategies for managing difficult behavior in the classroom through positive reinforcement, behavior modification, and other evidence-based techniques
- Enhancing the ability to create a safe and inclusive learning environment for all students, including those with ASD and/or ADHD
- Gaining skills in effective communication and collaboration with parents, guardians, and other professionals in the field of special education
- Improving the ability to differentiate instruction and make accommodations for students with ASD and/or ADHD
- Understanding the legal and ethical considerations related to working with students with disabilities
Methodology & assessment
The methodology for this training course will involve a combination of theoretical and practical components. The theoretical component will involve providing participants with an overview of the different types of difficult behaviors that may be exhibited by students, as well as the causes and underlying factors that contribute to these behaviors. The practical component will involve participants practicing different strategies and techniques for dealing with difficult behavior in the classroom.
Materials, digital tools & other learning resources
The course includes guides on classroom behavior management, case studies on challenging behaviors, and strategy handbooks. Participants will engage with digital tools such as Google Workspace, Padlet, and Miro for collaboration and interactive discussions. Hands-on learning will be supported by role-playing scenarios, behavior analysis templates, and intervention planning worksheets. Additional resources include video tutorials, academic articles, self-assessment tools, and classroom management simulation exercises, ensuring a practical and research-based approach to handling difficult behavior in educational settings.
