Exploring videos to support SWPBIS initiatives: A survey study

, ORCID Icon &
 

Abstract

Schools can use School-Wide Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports (SWPBIS) videos as a tool for teaching school-wide expectations and other targeted skills. Although some schools integrate SWPBIS videos into their universal framework, little is known about the creation and implementation of these videos. Through an online survey, information was gathered from schools implementing SWPBIS to describe the development and use of videos to support SWPBIS initiatives. Results from personnel representing 180 schools indicated that schools are using videos for a variety of purposes including supporting SWPBIS initiatives and student behavior. In general, schools reported positive views of videos, although some reported challenges concerning the time and resources required to produce videos. Practical implications and recommendations regarding future use of SWPBIS videos and research are discussed.
