Derek, in his first year of teaching, is having difficulties with his German 3 class. The students are very capable, but don't seem to buy into Derek's goals and standards of behavior. Derek is puzzled because what he remembers from Behavioral Theory is that responses that are reinforced grow more common, and responses that are not reinforced, extinguish. He has been ignoring some undesirable behaviors, but they've gotten even worse!

Using behavioral concepts that address how student misbehavior is maintained, develop some advice for Derek. In particular, explain why misbehavior in Derek's class is escalating, and make two specific suggestions that he could implement. Explain why your suggestions should work. Finally, use your imagination to anticipate what might go wrong when Derek gives your suggestions a try; briefly describe two difficulties he might encounter.
