I have used [this book] for several years re: class management. I especially appreciate the sections like: discriminating a behavior problem from another type of problem. [This book] has been very useful to me and to the teachers with whom I work. Thanks for your contribution to the profession. It has been important to me and the work I do.--Jan Fisher, Staff Development Consultant, Laguna Beach, California
WOW! I am so excited that, after taking Dr. Seeman's online class, I now have a 'cookbook' that I can use to assist teachers in the classroom. In my job as a middle school counselor, I assist teachers in managing the behavior problems in their classrooms. This course has provided me with the information that I can use with teachers to help them view their classroom from both their and the student's perspective. I now use at least one technique from Dr. Seeman's book daily. It is so enlightening for teachers to know that there is a systematic way to handle problems in their classrooms to get the results that they want. I have truly seen the light bulb go on when teachers are able to identify what they can do to improve instruction, handle issues in their classrooms, and create the environment they want for their students by using this book, its training exercises and Video. Thank you, Dr. Seeman for such a wonderful and practical contribution to teacher training and to education--Thelma Irby, counselor and teacher trainer, Tempe, Arizona
