Dr. Bruce Tinor returns to the podcast for an informative conversation about his work as a principal at The Child and Career Developmental Center of Chester County, Pennsylvania. Long-time listeners will recall that Bruce originally joined me in Session 197.

In this podcast, we talk all things alternative ed. Specifically, Bruce gives a quick review of how students find their way to his school, and in doing so, provides a mini-seminar in FAPE (and if you're not familiar with that acronym, you will be shortly).

We talk about working in a multidisciplinary setting, how those related services are provided, improving academic skills as a behavioral intervention, and in general, what it's like to be a BCBA and a school principal.

In many ways, this is a podcast about and too. Bruce talks about his interview practices and how he supports teachers and staff throughout the day. We also talk about some of the unique Tier 1 and Tier 2 behavioral practices, how he makes new students feel welcome, his behavioral approach to social-emotional learning, and lots more.

We close the podcast with what I thought was a really special discussion about Bruce being a role model. I don't want to spoil that part of the podcast here. You'll definitely want to listen to it for yourself, so I hope you check that part of the show out.

If you enjoyed this conversation as much as I did, please share it with friends and colleagues!

Behavioral Observations Podcast

Hi there, I'm Matt Cicoria. I started this podcast mainly because I couldn't find something like it to listen to on iTunes. To clarify, I wasn't looking to hear the sound of my own voice through the car's speakers. Instead, I was looking for easily accessible, behavior analytic content to listen to. Like many behavior analysts, I do quite a bit of driving during the work day, and as you can imagine, it gets kind of old to channel surf across the top-40/public radio/classic hits/sports-talk radio offerings over the course of a 100+ mile travel day. In fact, you can see what this did to the scan button in my car.

Over the last few years, I began listening to podcasts in my car to broaden my listening options (and by the way, if you're not familiar with podcasts, here is a good synopsis of what they are). And while I found a few podcasts that talked about behavioral issues, the ones I found were not solely about Applied Behavior Analysis. So in the spring of 2015, I got this crazy idea of starting my own show, despite having zero experience in broadcasting, website development, audio recording, etc... The overall concept - to interview interesting people in the behavior analysis field - formed the basis of the Behavioral Observations Podcast.
