Teachers need simple, easy to implement, evidence-based interventions to use in their classrooms. A single-case multiple baseline across participants design was used to determine if the use of self-monitoring in isolation would increase educators' use of behavior-specific praise (BSP). Participants tracked their use of BSP using a hand counter when they taught content area classes (i.e., science, social studies) and during a time of transition during the generalization phase. An increase in educators' rate of BSP was seen when self-monitoring was used. Data revealed that the rate of BSP per minute was higher during the generalization phase than the intervention phase. • Cost and time efficient way to: - Teach self-monitoring - Increase staff use of BSP - Generalize use of BSP.
