Don
Perras designed the Ecological Model
to provide educators with a system of strategies to improve
classroom instruction and group management.
DP Enterprises
recognizes the changing environment of public education.
Besides differences in overall student behavior and
commitment to learning, administrative and teaching
factors are influencing public schools' mission:
large percentage of retiring
veteran teachers
many new and inexperienced
teachers
too many expectations
of teachers without adequate resources, time,
and supervision
increase of academic
demands impacted by behavioral issues
DP Enterprises
trains administrators and teachers to implement Don's
Ecological Model by empowering educators
to understand behavior, practice creative instructional
techniques, and establish positive group strategies designed
to stabilize teacher - student - school interactions.
These management procedures have been field-tested and
continuously perfected in many schools.
DP Enterprises
offers Ecological Model inservice workshops
in a variety of formats. Instructional videotapes are
shown during the sessions of consultees demonstrating
environmental design, instructional methods, and group
management techniques.
On-site personalized
support for educators is also available to strengthen
teachers' application of Ecological Model
strategies.
