Book Social Behavior Mapping

Download or read book Social Behavior Mapping written by Michelle Garcia Winner and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Cognitive behavioral techniques are those which help a student to learn the thinking behind expected behaviors. Social Stories (developed by Carol Gray) are one type of cognitive behavioral technique for teaching students how to cope in a specific context or with specific people. Social Behavior Mapping is another complimentary method, which helps students to understand how our behaviors (expected and unexpected) impact how people feel, which then impacts how they treat us, which impacts how we feel about ourselves. Social Behavior Maps demonstrate to students how we all impact each other emotionally and behaviorally. This technique is not a panacea, but instead helps to demystify the complexity of social thought and related behaviors. It is being embraced in classrooms all over the United States. On this DVD, the evolution of social behavior mapping is explained along with step-by-step instructions on how to use this valuable treatment strategy. This DVD corresponds with a book called Social Behavior Mapping, also by Michelle Garcia Winner."--Container.

Book I ll Have What She s Having

Download or read book I ll Have What She s Having written by R. Alexander Bentley and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2011-08-26 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How we learn from those around us: an essential guide to understanding how people behave. Humans are, first and foremost, social creatures. And this, according to the authors of I'll Have What She's Having, shapes—and explains—most of our choices. We're not just blindly driven by hard-wired instincts to hunt or gather or reproduce; our decisions are based on more than “nudges” exploiting individual cognitive quirks. I'll Have What She's Having shows us how we use the brains of others to think for us and as storage space for knowledge about the world. The story zooms out from the individual to small groups to the complexities of populations. It describes, among other things, how buzzwords propagate and how ideas spread; how the swine flu scare became an epidemic; and how focused social learning by a few gets amplified as copying by the masses. It describes how ideas, behavior, and culture spread through the simple means of doing what others do. It is notoriously difficult to change behavior. For every “Yes We Can” political slogan, there are thousands of “Just Say No” buttons. I'll Have What She's Having offers a practical map to help us navigate the complex world of social behavior, an essential guide for anyone who wants to understand how people behave and how to begin to change things.

Book Social Fortune Or Social Fate

Download or read book Social Fortune Or Social Fate written by Pamela Crooke and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 45 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Utilizing the anime illustrations to capture the attention of teens and tweens, we have developed this book to teach the core concepts related to Michelle Garcia Winner's Social Behavior Mapping (SBM). SBM's teach how our own behaviors, expected and unexpected, impact how others feel about us, ultimately treat us which then affects how we feel about ourselves. The core of the book consists of 10 social scenarios, each one scenario is played out through the lens of Social Fortune or Social Fate by demonstrating visually how a situation can change quickly based on how someone reacts within it. Every scenario begins with a mini-story told through a four pictured comic strip which then leads the protagonist to a decision making point. If the decision made leads to others feeling good and ultimately the character feeling good about him or herself, this will be represented as "social fortune." However, if the protagonist makes a decision that traps him/her and peers/adults in an uncomfortable or frustrating situation, this leads to "social fate." The social fortune and social fate decisions are depicted through unique four-pictured comic strips."--Publisher's website.

Book Behavior Solutions

Download or read book Behavior Solutions written by John E. Hannigan and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In Behavior Solutions: Teaching Academic and Social Skills Through RTI at Work, authors John Hannigan, Jessica Djabravan Hannigan, Mike Mattos, and Austin Buffum address the role that student behaviors and emotional states play in schools and describe how students are generally lacking the support they need to pursue positive behaviors. This systemic behavior gap can be bridged, the authors state, by utilizing the PLC framework and RTI process to create a system of behavioral supports in multiple tiers (prevention, intervention, and remediation). However, success in this effort requires schoolwide structures that are collaborative, research-based, and practical. As such, this book provides the guidance necessary to integrate and apply essential behavior standards, processes, tools, and resources that allow the reader's school to function as a PLC that provides behavioral support at all 3 tiers through a thorough implementation of the RTI process. Readers will be able to utilize this book to develop a strong, collaborative PLC structure in their school that successfully addresses the behavioral needs of all of their students"--

Download or read book Social Situation Mapping written by Michelle Garcia Winner, MA, CCC-SLP and published by Think Social Publishing. This book was released on 2023-03-08 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is designed to help learners understand and make choices in the social world. What’s happening around us influences our thoughts, feelings, and responses. Social Situation Mapping (formerly Social Behavior Mapping), a core teaching framework within the Social Thinking® Methodology, uses visual templates to encourage learners to engage social observation for figuring out what to do and say (or not do and say) based on a particular situation: where we are, who is present, and what is happening. The maps also outline a fundamental teaching framework we call the Social Emotional Chain Reaction which shows how we all impact one another when sharing space. The maps are meant to be taught from the perspective of the student or client to provide options for what to do or say in common situations. We encourage educators, therapists, and parents to jointly generate unique maps alongside the student or client based on their individual goals. Revised and retitled, Social Situation Mapping is updated with our most current teaching. The book includes: · 80+ completed Social Situation Maps (SSMs) to explore 40+ practical, everyday situations that happen at school, home, and in the community. · Maps now have options to honor neurodivergent choices and strategies. Some options are also inclusive of learning differences and/or disabilities. · The completed maps included in this book can also be used as a way to guide learners to generate their own maps and figure out a path through the lens of their social goals or desires. · A description of the Social Emotional Chain Reaction (SECR), the foundational concept taught in Social Situation Mapping. · The 10-Step Visual Fidelity and Teaching Guide.

Book Core Practical Treatment Frameworks  Set 1

Download or read book Core Practical Treatment Frameworks Set 1 written by Michelle Garcia Winner and published by Think Social Publishing. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The social world is a big place, and the information can feel overwhelming at first. This two-set collection of 26 core practical frameworks is a powerhouse of visual teaching tools that includes the most important conceptual and treatment frameworks within the Social Thinking Methodology. Each framework provides a blueprint or visual support related to one specific aspect within the complex social world, in addition to high-level, basic instruction. The collection includes a broad array of frameworks that range from assessing learners’ needs to breaking down social communication, friendship, anxiety management, being with others, and many more to make the implicit explicit for social emotional learning. Core Practical Treatment Frameworks: Set 1 contains our most popular and helpful core tools with two types of frameworks. · Seven conceptual frameworks provide information specifically for interventionists to help them explore the social emotional assessment and treatment needs of specific individuals. These can be used during student study team meetings, IEP meetings, and to guide interventionists’ exploration of individuals’ social emotional development and treatment needs during the assessment process. · Six treatment frameworks help get started teaching core social emotional concepts directly to social learners: exploring emotions, size of the problem, and situation-based social expectations. 7 Conceptual Frameworks · 3 Aspects of Social Learning · The ILAUGH Model of Social Cognition · Social Thinking-Social Learning Tree · Social Thinking-Social Competency Model · Social Thinking Connected Frameworks · Building Blocks for Social Development of Young Children · Group Collaboration, Play and Problem Solving Scale (GPS) for Early Learners 6 Treatment Frameworks · Core Social Thinking Vocabulary · Basic Feelings & Emotions Scale · Size of the Problem and Size of the Reaction Thermometer · Social Emotional Chain Reaction · Social Behavior Map-General Observation (SBM-GO) · Social Behavior Map-GO “Lining Up to Leave the Classroom (Filled-in Template) Each framework has a graphic front and narrative back side. The front side provides a visual framework for use in team meetings with fellow interventionists or for use with students. The back side details the purpose of the framework along with instructions for using the framework, recommended age ranges, examples of how the information can guide teaching to foster development of social competencies, and recommendations for free articles and webinars, connections to other frameworks in the collection, and suggested books, online training courses and livestream events related to the concept. The majority of frameworks were first presented in print products published by Think Social Publishing, Inc., and/or in webinars, articles, On Demand courses, and conference/livestream events that can be found on the Social Thinking website. We strongly urge interventionists to explore these source products for deeper instruction, examples, and learning for using the frameworks in practice.
