Traditional Discipline versus PBIS

Traditional Discipline

Reactive to issues/problems
Problem solving approach
Focuses on student’s problem behavior
Goal is to stop undesirable behavior through the use of punishment
Proactive to prevent issues/problems
Solution focused approach
Teaches an appropriate behavior or skill
Alters environments
Rewards appropriate and improving behavior

PBIS

Proactive to prevent issues/problems
Solution focused approach
Teaches an appropriate behavior or skill
Alters environments
Rewards appropriate and improving behavior

PBIS IS NOT a packaged curriculum, scripted intervention, or manualized strategy.

PBIS IS a prevention-oriented way for school personnel to:

(a) organize evidence-based practices,

(b) improve their implementation of those practices

Within this framework, each school can tailor the “look” of PBIS to fit the needs of their students. This flexibility allows each school to personalize their approach and support success of all students

Evidence Based Features

Prevention
Define & teach positive social expectations
Acknowledge positive behavior
Arrange consistent consequences for problem behavior
Ongoing collection and use of data for decision making
Continuum of intensive individual interventions
Administrative leadership – Team based implementation
