Creating Effective Tier II Behavior Support Plans for Individual Students.
Participants will explore several problem solving protocols that design effective Tier II behaviors plans for indvidual students. Using the PTRR framework, participants will learn how to select a problem behavior. identify it\u27s common pattern, and select strategies and interventions designed to Prevent the triggering event, Teach a new skill, Reinforce the new & improved behavior, & Respond to the problem behavior.
These problem solving protocols are effective tools to identify supportive solutions to problem behaviors at school, in the home, and in the community
Towards the Unification of Gravity and other Interactions: What has been Missed?
Faced with the persisting problem of the unification of gravity with other
fundamental interactions we investigate the possibility of a new paradigm,
according to which the basic space of physics is a multidimensional space
associated with matter configurations. We consider general
relativity in . In spacetime, which is a 4-dimensional subspace of
, we have not only the 4-dimensional gravity, but also other
interactions, just as in Kaluza-Klein theories. We then consider a finite
dimensional description of extended objects in terms of the center of mass,
area, and volume degrees of freedom, which altogether form a 16-dimensional
manifold whose tangent space at any point is Clifford algebra Cl(1,3). The
latter algebra is very promising for the unification, and it provides
description of fermions.Comment: 11 pages; Talk presented at "First Mediterranean Conference on

Interacting vector fields in Relativity without Relativity
Barbour, Foster and \'{O} Murchadha have recently developed a new framework,
called here {\it{the 3-space approach}}, for the formulation of classical
bosonic dynamics. Neither time nor a locally Minkowskian structure of spacetime
are presupposed. Both arise as emergent features of the world from
geodesic-type dynamics on a space of 3-dimensional metric--matter
configurations. In fact gravity, the universal light cone and Abelian gauge
theory minimally coupled to gravity all arise naturally through a single common
mechanism. It yields relativity -- and more -- without presupposing relativity.
This paper completes the recovery of the presently known bosonic sector within
the 3-space approach. We show, for a rather general ansatz, that 3-vector
fields can interact among themselves only as Yang--Mills fields minimally
coupled to gravity.Comment: Replaced with final version accepted by Classical and Quantum Gravity
