BEHAVIOR IS LANGUAGE

Welcome to Behavior is Language®, an interactive computer-based instruction course, designed to give you a new perspective on student behavior and effective tools for facilitating positive student change.  Behavior is Language provides a developmental framework for understanding what students are trying to tell you through the "language" of their behavior.  The course teaches behavioral techniques and intervention strategies that remediate disruptive behaviors, reduce power struggles while increasing classroom control and reduce your workloads and burnout.  This program helps you, as well as students, find creative, effective solutions to behavioral problems.
