VIVA is excited to announce the publication of From Compliance to CoRegulation: Revisioning Guidance and Behavior Management to Support Children’s Social and Emotional Development within Classroom Communities by Sara E. Miller, Leslie La Croix, Kimberly Sanders Austin, Christine Pegorraro Schull, and Marianne Pegorraro Durocher.
This open textbook reimagines classroom management by shifting from compliance-based approaches to collaborative, community-driven strategies. Grounded in brain research, the OER presents the Community Model for Classroom Management, which advocates for tiered supports that foster social and emotional skills using a problem-solving approach. Universal, strategic, and intensive supports are discussed and connected to the model. This textbook celebrates the unique strengths that children bring to early childhood spaces and shows how educators can work collaboratively to help all children successfully engage within these communities.
From Compliance to Coregulation is available in Pressbook, PDF, ePub, and print: https://doi.org/10.60865/fctc-2z17
