Description: Demonstrates the use of positive reinforcement techniques to modify the behavior of elementary students or classes whose performance suffers because of their distracting behavior or daydreaming. ; "An opportunity for teachers, psychologists, and educational specialists to see people like themselves use operant conditioning and modeling procedures to increase children's task orientation. Successful application in three different classroom situations--at early, intermediate, and older primary school grade levels--is shown. Demonstrates need for determining appropriate rewards and generalizing reward from specific tangible objects to verbal and nonverbal reinforcement."--Extension Media Center catalogue, 1995.
