This book is organized around CBUPO, the basic psychological needs of all students: competence, belonging, usefulness, potency, and optimism. When teachers and schools focus on meeting these needs, the rate of at-riskiness 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, and alternative strategies for meeting the motivational needs of at-risk youth, from developmental constructivism to mastery learning.
