Overview

This book is organized around CBUPO, the basic psychological needs of all students:
• competence
• Belonging
• usefulness
• Potency
• Optimism

When teachers and schools focus on meeting these needs, the rate of at-riskness is drastically reduced.

This book presents practical strategies and tips to help teachers and administrators help all students become successful learners. The revised edition offers new material on:

• using classroom assessment
• complying with standards and high stakes testing
• an updated approach to evaluating At-Risk Prevention programs.
• alternative strategies for meeting the motivational needs of at-risk youth, from developmental constructivism to mastery learning.
