FORNAZARI, Silvia Aparecida et al. Capacitação de professores em análise do comportamento por meio de programa educativo informatizado. Psicol. educ. [online]. 2012, n.35, pp.24-52. ISSN 2175-3520.

It is recognized that, during schooling, children with special educational needs require additional attention from educational institutions relative to the education methods. The proposal of this study was to capacitate teachers in behavioral techniques in order to contribute to the inclusion process of children with special needs. This training consisted in teaching behaviour analysis principles, functional analysis and the procedure of differential reinforcement of alternative behaviors (DRA) utilizing an educational software. Four teachers from municipal schools were submitted to this training. Our data demonstrate that trained teachers, in general, learned the behavior analysis principles, functional analysis and DRA suggesting that they will be able to use these procedures in classroom.

Palabras clave : computerized training of teachers; Behavior Analysis; DRA.
