Description: Skillstreaming the Adolescent : A Guide for Teaching Prosocial Skills, Paperback by McGinnis, Ellen, ISBN 0878226532, ISBN-13 9780878226535, Brand New, Free shipping in the US McGinnis, a former teacher, special education consultant, and professor of special education, explains a four-element training process called Skillstreaming that incorporates modeling, role-playing, performance feedback, and generalization to teach 50 beginning and advanced social skills like conversations and instructions, dealing with feelings and stress, alternatives to physical and verbal aggression, and planning skills to adolescent students who show aggression, immaturity, withdrawal, or other problem behaviors. The process views students as in need of help through skills training and actively teaches desirable behaviors to replace less productive ones, rather than focusing on therapy or compliance. Included are chapters on program content and implementation that address cognitive-behavioral strategies, managing behavior problems, building positive relationships with parents, and violence prevention, which are followed by skill outlines and homework reports for each skill, with printable forms on the accompanying CD.
