Learner Objectives
This session will help participants…
- learn about the development and preliminary validation of the CSC tool in the form of factor analysis.
- learn about the Components of a Successful Classroom (CSC) tool utilized within a school-based consultation program, and its use within a problem-solving consultation framework at the Tier 1 level.
- describe how the use of the CSC tool fits into a comprehensive role as outlined by the NASP Practice Model.
Description
The current study examined a factor analysis of a Tier 1 classroom management observation tool for initial validation. This tool includes 15 items measuring critical features of Tier 1 strategies implemented by the classroom teacher, and is used to guide the problem-solving consultation process. Results showed that a three-factor solution provided better psychological interpretability; these constituted (a) preventive supports, (b) feedback and engagement, and (c) expectations and consequences. Future directions for continued psychometric validation will be reviewed.
