The IRIS Center’s Case Study Units provide faculty with realistic teaching scenarios for students to use. They are designed to strengthen a student’s understanding of the topic, as well as enhance their problem-solving skills while exploring new content. This case study unit is concerned solely with presenting a research-based strategy for defining behavior. Accurately defining behavior enables teachers to collect accurate information, design an appropriate intervention, and write behavioral goals and objectives for an IEP.
