Love and Logic Overview

Course Outline

This course will overview the educator training program developed by Jim Fay and Charles Fay, PhD. that consists of nine separate modules, each of which teaches a different subset of skills.  It is designed to help participants learn skills for: 

1. Creating classroom and school environments that stimulate responsible behavior and high levels of academic achievement.

2. Preventing misbehavior and increasing instructional time on task.

3. Avoiding power struggles while setting limits with challenging students.

4. Teaching character and responsibility through the application of logical consequences instead of punishment.

5. Developing positive, cooperative relationships with even the most difficult students and their parents.

6. Preserving the learning environment when one or more students become disruptive and unresponsive to preventative discipline.
