Abstract

Research has determined that behavioral intervention plans (BIP) based on functional behavioral assessments (FBA) are the most effective interventions for problem behavior in K-12 classrooms. Special education teachers generally learn the FBA/BIP process in preservice behavior management courses. However, most general education teachers take more generic classroom management classes. General education teachers are not typically required to take courses focused on managing challenging behavior and often do not receive preservice or inservice training in behavioral supports. This article will review the use of the Behavior Intervention Flow Chart (BIFC), initially developed as a tool to be used to teach behavioral decision-making skills to preservice teachers in a university class.
