Abstract

Teachers exert critical influence on student outcomes, both academic and behavioral. The under-preparedness of pre-service and in-service teachers in the area of classroom management has been well-documented within the literature. Specifically, teachers' self-report and observational data reveal that educators are ill-equipped with effective strategies necessary to support students' social-emotional functioning.
