Causton, Julie; MacLeod, Kate – ASCD, 2020
Challenging behavior is one of the most significant issues educators face.

Assor, Avi; Kaplan, Haya; Feinberg, Ofra; Tal, Karen – Theory and Research in Education, 2009
We propose that self-determination theory's conceptualization of internalization may help school reformers overcome the recurrent problem of "the predictable failure of educational reform" (Sarason, 1993). Accordingly, we present a detailed learning and implementation structure to promote teachers' internalization and application of ideas and…
