Task#5: Video Demonstration

Coping with Undesirable behavior through techniques

of:

It’s a "toll" or "fine" imposed in response to the

student's display of "bad" behavior.  A penalty is assessed for his/her having shown inappropriate behavior.

  If you were to take away a 

point/token/raison/raffle ticket/candy piece  away from a youngster's collection because of a rude remark or failure to stay on task, that would be response cost (a cost that is imposed for that response).

Response Cost

 It's always best to have kids earn points (and

be denied more if they misbehave...with accompanying encouragement in which you state your belief that they can do better), rather than giving them points for having done nothing (and then removing them when kids misbehave).
