Abstract

While the design of effective classroom programs for students with emotional and behavioral problems has been an important topic of discussion for many years, recent criticisms of existing programs and the movement toward full inclusion of such students in general education classrooms have resulted in a renewal of interest in the structure and design of effective programs for these students. The present paper describes the ten components of a comprehensive classroom-based program for students with emotional and behavioral problems, contrasts the program's educative approach with the more control-oriented approaches frequently observed in school settings, and discusses methods to overcome some of the common barriers to the successful implementation of such programs.
