TCLC Summer Institute 2008

The summer institute will be a five day event with three separate tracks

recommended for teachers, aides, coordinators, administrators, behavior

specialists, school psychologists, and anyone interested in education or

behavior analysis.

The conference will cover a vast array of methods for teaching, data collection,

determining function of behavior as well as assessment of learning and language

behavior and daily living behavior. In addition a special focus will be placed

on language development and inclusion in regular education environments.

In addition to cutting edge information in experimental education and

empirically based curriculum of instruction each participant will receive

resource materials to assist in assessment, data collection, and curriculum

planning.

The 2008 Institute will be held at Harrah’s Hotel and Casino in Tunica

Mississippi. This is an extremely beautiful facility with a large selection of

shows and other entertainment.

Who Should Attend

The Institute will be especially helpful to anyone interested in improving

education through the use of Applied Behavior Analysis. Teachers,

Administrators, and other support staff will find any of the three topics add to

their ability to manage a classroom and increase their ability to effectively

educate children.

Behavior Analysts and school psychologists will also find the Institute a

helpful and enjoyable way to improve their skills. Additionally, parents of

children with special needs or behavior disorders will also find plenty of

excellent information and learning in this five day institute.
