• A more in-depth description of the specific problem behaviourbeing worked on: Analysis of the problem behaviour. • The tools and educational strategies to create the intervention: How to intervene.
Each chapter closes with The expert advice: reflections to further understand and enrich the teacher’s “briefcase of educational tools”.
