Collaborative Problem Solving with Students

Book Hero Magic crafted this summary to help describe this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Summary
Collaborative Problem Solving with Students by J. Stuart Ablon and Alisha R. Pollastri outlines a compassionate, skill-building approach to managing challenging student behaviours. The book promotes understanding that such behaviours stem from skill deficits rather than willful misconduct.

It introduces a practical three-step process: empathizing with and clarifying the student's concerns, sharing the educator's concerns, and collaborating with the student to brainstorm and select solutions. This method fosters constructive dialogue and partnership between teachers and students.

The guide is designed as an easy-to-use, durable, multi-panel reference, ideal for educators committed to empathetic and effective problem-solving.

From the authors of The School Discipline Fix (2018): a three-step guide to using CPS. The most effective way to address students' challenging behaviours is with skill development, not motivational incentives or disciplinary measures.

When students miss class, forget homework, and misbehave, they lack the skill rather than the will to succeed. With this philosophy in mind, Collaborative Problem Solving with Students, by youth psychology experts J. Stuart Ablon and Alisha R. Pollastri, provides a clear framework for working with students to address challenging behaviour. The QRG offers proven steps for solving a problem collaboratively with a student:

Empathise: Clarify the student's concern

Share your concern

Collaborate: Brainstorm, assess, and choose a solution to try

The easy-to-follow guide is an essential tool for tackling challenging student behaviour effectively, collaboratively, and compassionately. This 8.5" x 11" multi-panel guide is laminated for extra durability and 3-hole-punched for binder storage.
