A workshop for using some of most powerful, practical tools in documented prevention science Welcome back from Lunch By…Penn State University, PAXIS Institute and Johns Hopkins University
59
59 Fast Facts Learning Game On instruction, please SILENTLY read through the questions quickly. The peer teacher reads through each question briskly. Without looking at the answers, the learner tries to answer as best as possible. If the answer is correct, the peer teacher scores 5 points for the learner ’ s answer. If the answer is not correct, the peer teacher coaches the correct answer by saying it and asks the learner to repeat the answer for 3 points Continue going through the questions and answers, REPEATING questions, until time called. When signaled, change roles quickly. The learner now becomes the peer teacher. Continue until signaled to stop. Tally points for each person; then add points for the pair, adding all the five, three and zero answers.

What does the research show? What is important to you?
61
61 Being a consumer of research What would you want to know short term? –What could we notice (see or hear) different? What would you want to know long term? –How would children and staff change? What what else would be important to you as a consumer of research information? –Real world practice? –So what
62
62. PATHS Curriculum Research There have been four controlled studies with randomized control groups: – 2 with regular education, – 1 with special needs children, and – 1 with deaf/hearing-impaired children
63
63 Key PATHS Findings Significant reductions in aggressive behavior by both teacher and child reports Significant reductions in child and teacher report of internalizing (anxiety and depressive symptoms) Significant improvements in children social competence by teacher’s reports of child behavior Significant improvement in children’s understanding of emotions and their ability to generate effective, peaceful solutions to everyday peer conflicts

66
66 PATHS Universal Intervention 1 Year of Intervention Teacher TRF Externalizing Behavior Students Receiving PATHS in Grade 2 and 3 show less increase in ext problems 2 years post-intervention
67
67 PATHS Universal Intervention 1 Year of Intervention Block Design (WISC-R IQ Test) Students Receiving PATHS in Grade 2 and 3 significantly increase on their cognitive skills on the WISC-R subtest of Block Design

82
82 Impact of a Simple Gift: What if 1,000 Teachers Use the Game Impact: 50,000 to 100,000 fewer classroom disruptions or acts of aggression per year per teacher. Impact: 270 to 540 more hours of fully engaged instruction per teacher per year or 2,700 to 5,400 hours for a decade per teacher. After approximately a decade, the costs averted would enable the state to award a $10,000 bonus to 10,000 teachers. Or, about 15-30 new schools could be built. Or, 200,000 students could have a new laptop. Or, 10,000 graduating seniors could receive a $25,000 college scholarship. Or, one million taxpayers could receive a check for about $200-$300 dollars.

Evaluating PATHS to PAX Dr. Ialongo
84
84 Evaluation of PATHS to PAX Is this comprehensive classroom-wide program feasible for Baltimore City School District teachers to implement? How satisfied were the teachers with the PATHS to PAX intervention? Training Support Curriculum Materials Impact on Students
85
85 Methods of Data Collection Evaluations from Workshop Attendees Focus groups with Teachers, Staff, Administrators, and Coaches Classroom Observations (i.e., spleem counts) by Teachers & Coaches Pilot Ratings of Implementation by Teachers and Coaches Dosage – number & type of games, length of time played, number of lessons Perceived Impact on Students & Classroom Climate Satisfaction
