An Educator's View of Medication and Classroom Behavior

Department o f Special Education, Rhode Island College, Providence, R.I. 02908.

Classroom teachers have two tasks to perform in assisting the proper use of drug therapy on hyperactive children. The first is to supply objective observations on the effectiveness of the medication in controlling classroom behavior. The second is to develop teaching strategies for the children who are unable to benefit from medication. Proper teacher training in behavior control techniques will make it possible for many children to learn with a minimum of medication to effect behavior change.
