Increasing Student On-Task Behavior through Implementation of the Tier II Intervention Check-In Check-Out

Abstract

This study served the purpose of determining whether the Tier II intervention Check-In Check-Out would increase student on-task behavior in the classroom for elementary school students. This study utilized a point sheet system adapted from PBIS (Positive Behavior Support System), with a pretest and posttest comparing student on-task behavior prior to and after implementing Check-In Check-Out. Student performance and data were analyzed throughout the study and were communicated with students on a daily basis. The Check-In Check-Out program did not have a strong impact on student on-task behavior. However, it is encouraged that further study into the Tier II intervention Check-In Check Out be conducted.
