"In Behavior Solutions: Teaching Academic and Social Skills Through RTI at Work, authors John Hannigan, Jessica Djabravan Hannigan, Mike Mattos, and Austin Buffum address the role that student behaviors and emotional states play in schools and describe how students are generally lacking the support they need to pursue positive behaviors. This systemic behavior gap can be bridged, the authors state, by utilizing the PLC framework and RTI process to create a system of behavioral supports in multiple tiers (prevention, intervention, and remediation). However, success in this effort requires schoolwide structures that are collaborative, research-based, and practical. As such, this book provides the guidance necessary to integrate and apply essential behavior standards, processes, tools, and resources that allow the reader's school to function as a PLC that provides behavioral support at all 3 tiers through a thorough implementation of the RTI process. Readers will be able to utilize this book to develop a strong, collaborative PLC structure in their school that successfully addresses the behavioral needs of all of their students"--

The authors share step-by-step actions for implementing the essential elements, instructional strategies, and tools needed to support implementation, as well as tips for engaging and supporting educators.

This guide will help you incorporate the response to intervention process by allowing you to: Understand how RTI at WorkTM builds on the PLC at WorkTM process. Review the revised RTI at WorkTM pyramid and its three RTI tiers. Learn what roles teacher teams, leadership teams, and schoolwide teams play in a multi-tiered intervention structure. Understand the differences among intervention, extension, prevention, and enrichment. Avoid common missteps when implementing RTI (or MTSS). Consider why an achievement gap remains in 21st century education and how the RTI process can close that gap.

Written by a veteran police officer turned college professor, this modern-day study of American policing covers hot-button issues including police use of deadly force against and bias toward minorities. Grounded in research of historical and current events, this text examines police practices and the psychological impact that those practices have on minority communities. Author David J. Thomas, a retired police officer and associate professor of criminal justice, looks at and beyond historical perspectives to address many of today's most controversial issues central to minority communities. Topics covered include the repeated failure to convict officers for fatally shooting unarmed subjects, the rise of heated debates between the Black Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter movements, the militarization of police agencies, and police response to protests by NFL players. The text also offers insight into the psychology of race, police culture, implicit bias, and the decision to use deadly force. Thomas additionally examines possible solutions to these problems. College students, researchers, academics, and readers interested in politics will find this work informative and thought-provoking.
