Teachers of students with emotional and behavioral disorders often struggle with increasing student participation while maintaining a positive classroom environment. Active student responding (ASR) occurs when a student says, writes, or engages in some observable response following a question. This article identifies and describes three electronic approaches to ASR and provides teachers with tips for effective implementation with students with emotional and behavioral disorders.

Working conditions may be an important lever to support special educators’ reading instruction for students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). Thus, we explored how working conditions relate to the quality of special educators’ reading instruction in upper-elementary, self-contained classes for students with EBD. Using mixed methods to examine video observations of reading instruction and varied data sources on working conditions, we found that special educators who provided stronger instruction had a partner coleading their program, and consistent paraprofessionals, with time and support for training. Partners and paraprofessionals, together, protected special educators’ instruction time. Other conditions (i.e., material resources, role differentiation, role conceptions, planning time) emerged as potentially important, but evidence was less robust. Results indicate partners and paraprofessionals may be important forms of collegial support. These findings have important implications for improving the quality of instruction in self-contained settings for students with EBD.

Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) are likely to require interventions to help them navigate the social demands of the school environment. Several meta-analyses of social skills interventions have been conducted, which have provided guidance and demonstrated the effectiveness of social skills training for students with EBD. This article details a framework for teaching and practicing social skills interventions. Included in it are descriptions of several social skills strategies and ways in which the teaching of them can be individualized to meet the needs of students with EBD.

This systematic review examined eight studies showing that video modeling (VM) can have a positive and significant effect for students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). Building upon meta-analyses that sought evidence of video-based interventions decreasing problem behaviors of students with EBD in K-12 education, the review examined the standards of the Council for Exceptional Children (CEC) for evidence-based practice as well as additional quality indicators, neglected quality indicators, strategies combined with VM, the impact of the independent variables on the dependent variables, and common recommendations offered for future research. Findings revealed that the eight studies met the CEC standards for evidence-based practices as well as other quality indicators. For instance, all studies reported content and setting, participants, intervention agents, description of practice, as well as interobserver agreement and experimental control. According to the findings, fidelity index and effect size were the two most neglected quality indicators. Furthermore, instructions, reinforcement system, and feedback or discussion were the most common strategies used. Finally, generalizability—across settings, populations, treatment agents, target behaviors in the real world, and subject matter—was the most common recommendation for future research. While further investigation is warranted, these findings suggest that VM is an effective evidence-based practice for students with EBD when the CEC standards are met.

Research suggests a potential relationship between self-determination and improved post-school outcomes for students with disabilities. Self-determination represents a particularly relevant variable which deserves increased attention for students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD); however, there is no consistent understanding on how to actually design instruction to enhance self-determination for students with EBD. This article offers a person-centered planning system developed for and in collaboration with students with EBD to address such post-school outcomes through the development of youth autonomy and goal-setting.

Students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) experience a variety of externalizing and internalizing behavior problems, gaps in academic achievement, and increased rates of dropping out of school. Thus, it is essential that students with EBD receive evidence-based academic and behavioral supports from skilled and knowledgeable teachers to improve student outcomes. Unfortunately, teachers typically receive limited professional development in classroom management practices and other supports targeting the unique needs of students with EBD. In this manuscript, we describe (a) challenges in the field related to supporting students with EBD, (b) current practices in professional development, (c) a multitiered-system-of-support framework for organizing and providing professional development, and (d) the need for more research on efficient and effective professional-development supports for teachers of students with EBD.

Teaching students who exhibit emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) can be challenging and requires conscious and insightful strategies to be aware of how teachers interact with their students. An emphasis on high-quality relationships between teachers and students can ameliorate some of the challenges in teaching students with EBD, resulting in a more enjoyable experience for both parties. In the column, the utility of relationship-building as a preventive measure to help decrease the occurrence of crisis behaviors is discussed. Strategies before, during, and after crisis to assist in facilitating high-quality relationships are presented.

A multiple-baseline across participants design was used to investigate the effect of the Cover-Copy-Compare (CCC) intervention on multiplication-fact fluency for students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). Although CCC is a well-researched intervention for mathematics, limited research has been conducted with students with EBD even though these students often struggle academically. Results indicate that a functional relation was established between CCC and an improved number of digits correct per minute for multiplication problems for only one of three elementary-age boys with EBD. Tau-U effect sizes ranged from no effect for one participant to a large effect for another participant. The length of the intervention and the initial level of a student’s skills may be related to the effectiveness of CCC for students with EBD and should be explored in future studies.

Academic interventions for students with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD) is a critical area of practice and one that has not been fully developed by large-scale research. Students with EBD are characterized by an ability to achieve academically but demonstrate a failure to do so. Some research on effective instructional practices for students with EBD does exist, but the predominance of single-case research in this area does not typically demonstrate or report a statistical effect size, making the selection and application of effective instructional strategies sometimes difficult. This article provides a thorough review of the existing research on instructional interventions for students with EBD and calculates effect sizes so that recommending effective instructional practices is more easily accomplished. The authors found 16 “types” of academic interventions and reported the individual and mean improvement rate differences.

In this paper research is identified that supports the use of specific classroom management strategies in classrooms for children with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD). Information is presented that indicates that these strategies may not be implemented or may not be effectively implemented by the teachers of students with EBD. It is suggested that classroom management strategies, as tested in experimental studies, may not match the needs and resources in actual classrooms for students with EBD. Issues of determining which strategies and how they are used in classrooms, as well as matching proven strategies to classroom needs and measures of intervention fidelity, are targeted as primary areas in need of research.

Performing newly acquired skills over time (i.e., maintenance) and across settings and stimuli (i.e., generalization) is central to what students need to accomplish in preparation for life beyond the classroom. Students, including those with emotional and behavioral disorders (EBD), need opportunities to practice for the purposes of maintaining and generalizing skills. With practice, students develop the ability to perform skills adequately under appropriate conditions. This article details ways to teach and get students with EBD to practice generalization and maintenance of newly acquired skills.
