Classroom Reinforcement
from The How to ABA Podcast · host Shira Karpel & Shayna Gaunt
Students aren’t always intrinsically motivated in the classroom. It’s important to include some type of reinforcement for these students to motivate them and encourage more positive behaviors. One of the most common objections we get from teachers is that reinforcement isn’t needed, but there will always be those few learners who have challenges or just can’t keep up. An extra push to get through the day helps those who might be too tired or unmotivated.Another objection is that classroom reinforcement doesn’t work, but that’s often due to not understanding the key components of a reinforcement system. We discuss how these components help make reinforcement effective and why reinforcement isn’t bribery. We also talk about individual reinforcement systems, group and individual contingencies, and the do’s and don’ts of successful classroom reinforcement programs.
