Kern, Lee; Bambara, Linda; Fogt, Julie

Behavioral Disorders, v27 n4 p317-26 Aug 2002

A study examined effects of class-wide curricular modification on the engagement and behaviors of six students (ages 13-14) with emotional disturbances, in a self-contained science class. Modifications included providing opportunities for choice making and ensuring activities were of high interest, which resulted in increased engagement and decreased problem behaviors.
